Minn. mom says missing son, 20, killed in Somalia

he mother of a 20-year-old Somali man missing from Minneapolis says her son has been killed in Somalia. Abayte Ahmed (ah-BYE'-tee ah-med) said Sunday through an interpreter that she and her husband identified their son, Jamal Bana (BAH'-nuh), in a photo showing a dead body in Somalia. Bana's father saw the photo Saturday while viewing online news.

Somali activists believe more than a dozen young men have gone missing from the Minneapolis area during the last couple years—recruited, they say, by radical elements in Somalia.

Bana disappeared in November. Ahmed says after seeing the photo, she and her husband spoke by phone to someone in Somalia and have no doubts their son was killed. She wouldn't say with whom they spoke.

“Somali activists believe more than a dozen young men have gone missing from the Minneapolis area during the last couple years...”

.
They’ll show up sooner or later in Minneapolis again with a more sinister mission.

That’s a darned shame. And I’d be willing to bet he was an Eagle Scout, too...

Meantime, not to worry! The Somali enclave in Minneapolis will keep things going for jihadists on the home front.

Or at least someone with their ID will re-enter the country

Keep it up and Ellison will lose enough votes to not get reelected again.

A good attorney could help them obtain some comfort money from the US Government to help them with their grief.

I’m still trying to understand why we let people like these into the United States. Really.

Gee, If he had stayed home and gotten a job, instead of trying to learn to kill Americans he would probably still be alive.

That's interesting. I wonder how radical elements in Somalia recruit people in America? Isn't it more likely that radical elements in America are sending recruits to Somalia?

Good!

I have difficulty reconciling your tagline with your comment. It appears Mr. Bana may have died without knowing Jesus Christ as his Lord. Although the report says he was likely recruited by radical elements, I read nothing about him harming anyone nor being killed in an attempt to do so. How can another soul lost for eternity possibly be "Good!"?

"I'm still trying to understand . . ."

Useless State Department, bleeding heart Lutheran (and other) refugee resettlement loons that won't have to clean up the mess they're making, etc., etc. Too many so-called Americans just have a suicide wish.
