"Well at least he dressed nicely.

Crazed, towel-head infiltrator.
There are many like that in the USA.
You can bet Obama left many in US Government.
Some of them hoping to get close to Trump in future?

This appears to be the ventilated assassin after he assassinated the ambassador.

How is it an assassination attempt if the Ambassador is dead?

Put this one in the successful category. Like field goals, you have successful and unsuccessful attempts.

It was a near miss.

Who will pull curtain back and expose Sister Khadija's cult as nothing more or less than a Middle Eastern rendition of America's version of the FRAUD: Mormonism?

Kadryov has been on a mission to “selectively depopulate” Chechnya and has been effective enough to have stabilized the situation and form a bromance with Vlad.

Not quite the same finesse as Barry personally choosing drone targets in and bragging how good he is at killing

As for Chechnya, as far as the US goes, not our circus, not our monkeys!

Not an I man directly, but he may have arranged the hookup with the assassin so that it could happen

I agree with that.

“anyone who hates the Russians is a friend of Juan”

The list of Russia's enemies is nearly endless. They worked hard to achieve that. Most of them have nothing to do either with Islam or with your dumb Juan.

“I am the son of peasants and I know what is happening in the villages. That is why I wanted to take revenge, and I regret nothing.” Gavrilo Princip, Assasin that began WWI

Also of note:

“...the archduke’s procession took a wrong turn at the junction of Appel Quay and Franzjosefstrasse, where one of Cabrinovic’s cohorts, 19-year-old Gavrilo Princip, happened to be loitering.”

Appel and Aleppo.

Now - if the Ambassador’s secretary’s name is Kennedy, I’m going to need more than tinfoil to fend off the nukes.

Yep, as did/will all MSM. This is the power of social media, instant and viral.
