FBI: San Bernardino suspects radicalized two years ago
Washington Examiner ^ | 12/9/15 11:01 AM | Sarah Westwood

Posted on 12/09/2015 8:23:09 AM PST by GonzoII

FBI Director James Comey said Wednesday that the pair of suspects in last week's San Bernardino shooting were radicalized at least two years ago.

"San Bernardino involved two killers who were radicalized for quite a long time before their attack," he told the Senate Judiciary Committee. "In fact, our investigation to date, which I can only say so much about at this point, indicates that they were actually radicalized before they started dating each other online."

"As early as the end of 2013, they were talking to each other about jihad and martyrdom before they became engaged and married and lived together in the United States," he said.

Given the precision of the attack and the preparations it is obvious this husband and wife terror team was well trained for this kind of attack in addition to being well financed likely from an outside source. These were not just a couple who got inspired by some radical imam and decided to go on a shooting rampage. These were trained killers sent here by ISIS or some similar group on a mission of terror. I am sure that there are many other similarly trained terrorists in the U.S. just waiting for an opportunity to do the same.

This is a spiritual thang, which means believing, which is a voluntary act in spite of what Islam calls it. People who fake it to get along, to keep their necks intact, are unlikely to want to go very deep. People who believe might want to go very deep.

That’s right. It begins the day the little boys are crammed with bloodthirsty sura, their heads bobbing back and forth.
Then they give their women their orders. She was a programmed killer.

They were never radicalized. They were simply Moslem. He either told the organization that he was ready to do something useful to the cause or his Imam told him it was time. Almost all Moslems would do the same. If they refuse a call then they are apostates and they know they would then have to become examples some way for the rest.

What is this "radicalize" of which they speak? Were these people originally just normal every-day persons, waking in the morning, going to work, fixing dinner, spending time with friends, watching sports, what?

Did they just wake up one day after contracting the "radical" virus? Or are they mentally weak and overly subject to suggestion?

What a horse-sh!t distraction this concept is, and I'm tired of it being shoved down our throats on a constant basis. They weren't suddenly and magically "radicalized". They were born muslim and they are only following through to fruition the meaning and reason for every muslim life in the world - to kill indiscriminately in order to do Satan's will.

Wonder how many people reported for work Monday and quietly took a LONG HARD LOOK at the muzzie working next to them in the office.

Is that bulge in his coat a gun?
Why did he start growing a fuzzy beard?
Why are his eyes glazed over?
Why did he start demanding a safe space to howl several times a day?
Why is he wearing that silly knit cap?
Why is his wife suddenly dressing like a black robed Klansman?

Must not as such questions! I might be pegged as a racist!

I still wonder about the circumstances. Whoever is puppetmeister to these attempts might have multiple teams, but might tell those to act first who find themselves in situations that illustrate the grievances of Muslims most vividly. This place with the Jewish Christian and the Christmas party might have shot way up on the puppetmeister’s list, so he said go ahead. Again just trying to feel out the possibilities. Nowhere near certain about it yet.

Was Obama “Radicalized” when he went to Pakistan in 1981?

Anything spiritual is a believing thing.

It’s easier to get belief to a sin-based religion than one that is righteousness-based because man is born a sinner. But still there might be rebellion against that particular system.

The bible tells that the devil waits for the opportune time. To have non radicalized elements is not nonsense, it is vouched for by the bible. The complementary force in the scene is, of course, God. The devil doesn’t get to act alone; the devil needs God’s permission.

But, strangely, even though the FBI knew that they’d been contact with international terrorist organizations, Obama’s Justice Dept couldn’t determine that they were terrorists until after they shot up a room full of people. Because liberalism....

Well, that's mildly disturbing...

So, there was plenty of time to 'catch' them? Or was the FBI too busy finding out what freepers had for breakfast to bother with radical Muslims?

Their marriage was a SHAM done to convey ‘normalcy’ as being a happy family. Has the FBI taken a DNA swab of ‘their’ baby and matched it to each of them?

It seems there is more of a connection between Enrique Marquez and Farook than just “neighbors a long time ago.” Reports out this morning that Marquez married the sister of the other Farook brother just last year. (Both were from Russia.) The other brother and his wife served as witnesses to the wedding. I also read that the shooter and Marquez were witnesses at the brothers wedding a couple of years before that.

Ask a Muslim if 0dunga is Muslim then watch carefully. They won’t answer your question because they keep secrets.
