(CNN) —The Homeland Security Department and the FBI on Saturday issued a joint intelligence bulletin to law enforcement agencies around the U.S. following the Chattanooga shootings that killed five U.S. service members, saying that the shooter's motive remains unclear.
This despite a claim by Homeland Security Committee Chairman Rep. Michael McCaul that the shooter was inspired by ISIS.
"We have no information at this time indicating that this incident was either inspired, directed, or assisted by individuals associated with an identified designated foreign terrorist organization," a U.S. law enforcement official said. "However, the FBI investigation into his activities while overseas and the nature and extent of his affiliation with FTOs (foreign terrorist organizations) is ongoing."
The law enforcement official said that the suspect, Mohammad Yousef Abdulazeez, 24, who was shot and killed by authorities, became a U.S. citizen in 2003. He previously traveled on at least four separate occasions to Jordan -- with the last recorded date of travel between April and November 2014.
"We have no information to date to suggest that these trips were associated with any nefarious or violent extremist activities," the law enforcement official said.
The bulletin comes hours after U.S. Navy Petty Officer Randall Smith succumbed to injuries he suffered in the Thursday attacks.
Darlene Proxmire, Smith's step-grandmother, said the logistics specialist was shot in the attack at the Navy Operational Support Center in Chattanooga. It was one of two military sites in the city that authorities say were targeted by Abdulazeez.
Obama and his Criminals can just check the secret race database ,but Muslims are not on it
Uh, could his motive be that practiced a demonic religion?
“I know! I know! I know!!!”
Hire me as a “consultant, you Fed morons. The guy was an moozlum terrorist. Sheesh! When will the ignorance end? Probably, when many of us are dead.
I don't think so. I think that the FBI and the DHS are now arms of the Ministry of Truth. Their jobs are to spin and scrub the evidence to show what the Obama Muslim loving Administration wants and to hide and erase any information that contradicts the view the want us to accept.
Perhaps DHS and other Feds are looking to see if there are any Tea Party connections...or perhaps any connections to Bandidos or Cossacks motorcycle gangs. Such connections would be very telling.

That or those homosexual flags. You know how them muzzies like the gays.
It was either caused by a video, a comic, or a flag.
Of course they know what's up. It's the GD government who's importing a conga-line of mid-easterners into the U.S. along with tens of millions of illegal aliens. They have real blood on their hands.
What makes them stupid them putting this propaganda out there thinking Americans are going to buy this rotten cow flop.
So do they.
Why does this remind me so much of the Monty Python “Dead Parrot” skit?
What was his motive? “He was pining for the fjords.”
Personally, I think the first name, Mohammad, should have been all the explanation they needed.
So we have to assume that the FBI and DHS are supporting, aiding, abetting and covering these acts of war on our people and our service professionals. States need to start kicking out all FBI and DHS personal.
Israeli media is now reporting that he told a friend he was upset about Gaza and was quoting Hadith to him. See? Now we can blame Israel and demand a settlement.
Never underestimate the willful naïveté of a secular lefty voter, and the Western world is FULL of them!
How bad does it need to get? Wasn’t 9-11 the biggest clue of all?
I agree. This literally makes me sick to my stomach.
They protect them and thier families better than they protect us. Heard for a brief nano second that his father was on the terroist watch list, nuff sed w not only need to deport the illegals we need to deport the muzzies too
