& if the FBI had already questioned the older brother, then why did it take so long to identify him? He shouldve been on their radar! Reddit more inept than FBI. Unless our current admin tried to sweep under the (prayer) rug?
The FBI is not monolithic. Someone - who knows at what level but from his area was sent to ask him some questions. The conclusion was, he did not pose a threat of terrorism, in 2011. The interview was done at the request of a foreign country (best bet, Russia). So just because he had been asked some questions does not mean there’s an FBI generated photo of him by his name and all they need is to punch some button on a computer and voila, his name and picture come up. And remember, nothing was found wrong. Cough, cough. And remember, he is Muslim. Can’t be found keeping records on innocent Muslims now, can we? Hmmmmm??
