Columbus Somali Muslim leader on OSU jihad attack: “The timing is not good”

COLUMBUS – Fifteen miles northeast of Ohio State University, where a Somali immigrant attemped a gruesome attack Monday, Omar Hassan grieved. And worried.

“The timing is not good,” Hassan, 54, said in reference to the country’s increasingly intensified anti-immigrant and anti-Muslim fears. “We are black. We are Muslim. We are Somali. We are all the negative stigmas.”

Hassan sat in the lobby of the Somali Community Association offices upstairs and around the back of a 1970s-era strip mall on Cleveland Avenue. He said the office is the first stop for people arriving from the east African nation who are seeking an apartment, a job lead or a decent school for the children.

The large Somali refugee community in central Ohio has come under increased scrutiny over concerns that ISIS sympathizers could be hiding there. Not so, said Hassan, who has been in the United States for 26 years and in Columbus for the past 17.

“America is not my enemy. America is my friend,” he said. “Anybody who sees my different is wrong. My Somali community loves America. We appreciate our country and the opportunity America gives us. We came here for a better life. We came here for an education. We came here to work. We came here to practice our religion.”…

“We do not have a spike in crime,” Hassan said. “But we are human beings. We might have a couple of bad actors, like any community does. Crime is everywhere. Criminals are everywhere. Punish the individual, not the entire community. We do not want to get a bad label because of an individual.”

He said a recent plot by white nationalists to damage a Kansas apartment complex and kill its Somali residents was greeted with “great, great appreciation” toward law enforcement and the Federal Bureau of Investigation.

"When would the timing be right for a jihad attack, sir?

“We are black. We are Muslim. We are Somali. We are all the negative stigmas.”

Poor victim! Why is being Muslim a “negative stigma” at all? Could it have any connection to the nearly 30,000 jihad terror attacks that devout Muslims have committed around the world since 9/11?

If Hassan ever wonders why being Muslim is a “negative stigma,” which is, of course, false in the first place, he should ask Abdul Artan, or Syed Rizwan Farouk, or Tashfeen Malik, or Dzhokhar and Tamerlan Tsarnaev, or Mohammed Abdullah, or Omar Mateen, or Nidal Malik Hasan, or Abdulhakim Mujahid Muhammad, or Faisal Shahzad, or Mohamed Mohamud."

That was my thought exactly when I read that. Incredible. In my opinion the timing was right as more people will say enough is enough.

Americans kind of naturally dislike people who think we must all be killed or converted to your Satanic “religion”

“We are black. We are Muslim. We are Somali. We are all the negative stigmas.”

Well deserved

The timing.

Should have waited until they could all attack en masse.

Yes, some other time to murder Americans would have been better.

So then the guy complains that he’s “victimized” by a negative stigma.

What an a-hole.

Maybe next Tuesday at 2 pm would have been better for him.

I’m waiting to hear the muslim community come out against the attack. Never mind, we’ve been waiting for some sort of kind words from those laughing and cheering the towers falling.

Perhaps someone could tell us why we need to import more Black Muslim enemies? Don’t we have more than enough Black Muslims in this country to keep the security forces busy 24/7? Instead of allowing more in, it’s high time we start shipping the Facebook jihadis and their families back to whatever cesspool of a country they left.

“The timing is not good,”

Not that the attack was abominable or despicable .... no, just poorly timed!!! Gotta love the logic of Benghazi Clinton supporters!
