Farook in same 'social circle' as convicted terrorist

The FBI believes Farook had ties to a group of jihadists in California who were arrested in 2012 for attempted to travel to Afghanistan to join al Qaeda.

Specifically, investigators are taking a new look at one of the four men who was arrested in the 2012 case, Sohiel Kabir. Kabir, who was convicted and sentenced to 25 years in prison, was the recruiter who helped radicalize others.

The 2012 probe happened in Riverside, California, not far from San Bernardino. Farook was in the social circle of Kabir, officials told CNN.

The FBI initially investigated five men as part of the Riverside group. The fifth wasn't arrested and hasn't been identified. But Farook was not among those investigated at the time, the officials said.

I wonder if they attended the same mosque?

Arrest his family, arrest all his mosque members!

They certainly didn't worry about Constitutional lawfulness in Waco!

Why hasn’t Obama made the FBI shut up? Cuz, he’s a Muslim, and this doesn’t seem to help his cause, and just about everything else in the whole g’d country seems to have been politicized. Is the FBI above pressure (hope, doubt)?

So much for the “he was radicalized by his wife” meme.

Good thing he didn’t go to a Tea Party rally or he would have been tailed 24/7/365.

Merry Christmas

Perhaps the best way to get these Islamic terrorists arrested is for Tea Party members to call them up and hang out at their Mosques.

May be a great way to get the NSA and FBI off the Tea Party if we would have our rallies at Mosques.
