SNIPPET: "St. Paul, Minn. — A sixth Minnesota man is feared dead in Somalia after joining an Islamic extremist group there. But Troy Kastigar stood out from his fellow recruits, because the Minneapolis man was not Somali.
Kastigar, 28, was a Muslim convert who apparently had no personal ties to the lawless east African country.
Troy Kastigar's family received reports of his death within the past week, according to friends of the family. The circumstances of his reported death aren't clear, and the information could not be confirmed by the FBI."

“Sixth American jihadists from Minn get killed in Somalia”
SNIPPET: “St. Paul, Minn. — American jihadists A sixth Minnesota man is feared dead in Somalia after joining an Islamic extremist Al-Shabab group shabaab there. But Troy Kastigar stood out from his fellow recruits, because the Minneapolis man was not Somali. Kastigar, 28, was a Muslim convert who apparently had no personal ties to the lawless east African country.”T
SNIPPET: “He told his mother that he was going to Kenya when he left the Twin Cities last November. But authorities and Somali community members believe Kastigar was part of the last wave of Minnesota men who joined the violent militia al-shabaab in Somalia. While some of the 20 or so men say they left to defend their homeland in a bloody civil war, Katigar’s motivations are less clear.”
SNIPPET: “Troy Kastigar was a Muslim convert who apparently had no personal ties to Somalia Before Kastigar left for Somalia, he acquired a lengthy rap sheet, filled with misdemeanors ranging from credit card fraud to driving after his license was revoked.
He is identified in police reports as white, but his mother claimed Native American heritage.
At some point, Kastigar converted to Islam and went by the Muslim name “Abdirahman.”
SNIPPET: “Somali-American community members say they occasionally saw Kastigar at the mosque, and more frequently at community basketball games or at the Brian Coyle community center in Minneapolis. Mukhtar Osman, a former student at the University of Minnesota, says he met Kastigar last fall across the street from the U’s Carlson School of Management. Kastigar was wearing a traditional Pakistani tunic, a tattoo on his neck, and a strange beard. He was in a car with three Somali young men whom Osman knew. Osman says it was the first and only time he saw the man who introduced himself as Abdirahman.”
Yep, only crickets.
Well, I’ll keep archiving.
Good riddance to bad rubbish.

It’s small towel since I have to turn it into transmit packets, but somehow I don’t think you’ll need a big towel to soak up your tears.....
This is not a ‘world’s smallest violin’ story by any means.
The real story here is the Refugee Resettlement Program that is importing this scum and vermin into the United States in the first place.
Ones that aren’t dead yet are walking American streets today. It’s friggin’ insane.
Too bad he couldn't convince Minnesota's junior Senator to ride along with him to Somalia for some fact finding.
Yahiye Gadahn in time Cindy.
Rather than not caring, I’m glad he’s past his expiration date.
Next time, use the buddy plan...
Take 20 more with you. See ya!
AMF to this anti-American traitor.
