DHS whistleblower: Orlando terror linked to San Bernardino
WND ^ | 06/14/2016 | Greg Corombos

Posted on 06/15/2016 12:36:23 PM PDT by detective

A former Department of Homeland Security official says it took him only a few hours to connect Sunday’s Islamic terrorist attack in Orlando to December’s carnage in San Bernardino, and he says the federal government’s active refusal to acknowledge reality is “handcuffing” efforts to keep the American people safe.

Philip Haney served nearly a decade at the Department of Homeland Security after its inception in 2003. His responsibilities there included investigations for Customs and Border Patrol through its National Targeting Center. While there, he played a key role in vetting people connected to Tablighi Jamaat, an Islamic group with some 70 million members.

In less than two days since the massacre at the Pulse club in Orlando, reports have surfaced that terrorist Omar Saddiqui Mateen was investigated multiple times by the FBI but was ultimately deemed not to be a threat, despite professing a link to the Boston Marathon bombers and the terrorist group Hezbollah.

Haney said that should have raised innumerable red flags, but he said the FBI’s own training procedures, updated in 2012, stopped common sense from taking the probe any further.

I am sure that they consider it a small price to pay to maintain the dogma of political correctness.

I read this dubious article a few hours ago. I was really turned off by the picture. Clearly it’s two different pictures overlaid together. One of the Orlando shooter one of the San Bernardino shooters.

The background information on the whistleblower appears to struggle to lend him some credibility.

Good question and we need to quickly find out which it is, or if its both.

Is “Treason” the new “Patriotism”? LIB and their rino enablers deserve trial and Righteous Justice.

What rumors I have heard (I can’t bear much main stream media) suggest that woman from Muslim areas are targeting Muslim men who travel overseas with government-related jobs and defective personalities.

A second-rate Muslim male with a second-rate job and life problems makes an easy conversion since he probably bears grudges.

We probably should pause immigration until housing prices in job-creating areas become reasonable.

There were many red flags:
1. beat ex-wife (divorce records probably verify that)
2. co-worker thought he was nutty
3. of interest to FBI
4. non-adherent to Muslim religion (homosexuality) who went on a “religious” trip to Saudi Arabia

At some point you have to ask if These are intelligence failures or sabotage successes by Islamist infiltrators led by the chief enemy of the US in the WH.

Hey, Hilliarily/Iman Obama, look at a mirror and at the faces of your inner circle to see who is responsible for Islamic Terrorism in America! It is not Trump's fault nor the NRA's fault!

ISIS has no Navy, no boats, no ships, no submarines. They have no Air Force, no bombers, no jet fighters, no troop carriers or refueling planes. ISIS has no ballistic missiles, no scuds, no short range missiles. They have no Space Program, no satellites, no real time intelligence.

THE ONLY WEAPON SYSTEMS ISIS HAS THAT CAN KILL AMERICANS ARE THE OBAMA/CLINTON/JARRETT/LYNCH/ DHS SECY JEH JOHNSON + the TRAITORS & DEMOCRATS IN CONGRESS, WHO DEMAND WE ALLOW MUSLIMS TO IMMIGRATE TO AMERICA TO SLAUGHTER INNOCENT AMERICANS.

Then, they try to disarm us to make us more vulnerable.

These people are not “failing”, they are succeeding at infiltrating people they KNOW full well will generate incidents from which the public backlash will hpoefully further their agenda.

WTFU America!
