BREAKING: Obama Admin. Releases Unredacted Orlando 911 Call After Outcry
Mediaite ^ | 3:09 pm, June 20th, 2016 89 | by Josh Feldman

The Department of Justice and the FBI has released the unredacted version of the Orlando shooter’s 911 call after tons of outcry for redacting references to ISIS.

Republicans by the score ripped the White House over politically correct concerns, and Paul Ryan demanded the unredacted version be released.

Here’s the full transcript, without the omissions:

OD: Emergency 911, this is being recorded.

OM: In the name of God the Merciful, the beneficent [Arabic]

OD: What?

OM: Praise be to God, and prayers as well as peace be upon the prophet of God [Arabic]. I wanna let you know, I’m in Orlando and I did the shootings.

OD: What’s your name?

OM: My name is I pledge of allegiance to Abu Bakr al-Baghdadi of the Islamic State.

OD: Ok, What’s your name?

OM: I pledge allegiance to Abu Bakr al-Baghdadi may God protect him [Arabic], on behalf of the Islamic State.

OD: Alright, where are you at?

OM: In Orlando.

OD: Where in Orlando?

[End of call.]

As you can see, the redacted parts were clearly about ISIS, which everyone knew already.

This is the explanation given by the DOJ/FBI for why they redacted it in the first place and why they reversed:

The purpose of releasing the partial transcript of the shooter’s interaction with 911 operators was to provide transparency, while remaining sensitive to the interests of the surviving victims, their families, and the integrity of the ongoing investigation. We also did not want to provide the killer or terrorist organizations with a publicity platform for hateful propaganda. Unfortunately, the unreleased portions of the transcript that named the terrorist organizations and leaders have caused an unnecessary distraction from the hard work that the FBI and our law enforcement partners have been doing to investigate this heinous crime. As much of this information had been previously reported, we have re-issued the complete transcript to include these references in order to provide the highest level of transparency possible under the circumstances.

What are we going to do? We have sissies in the House of Representatives and the Senate, we put them there by our votes, so what is the answer this coming election?

Are we going to re elect the same ones, or are we going to vote for ‘the other guy’? It’s only up to us, isn’t it?

This coupled with their losses in the Senate votes today lead us to the conclusion that the Senate RATs got hit with a bucket of $hit for all of their filibustering! Sorry for the language, but their actions really perturbed me.

The feds don’t own 911 recordings.

This is what I have been saying in every thread.

...which is why I think something stinks here.

[shouting mode on]

THE LAWYER FOR ANY SURVIVING FAMILY MEMBER CAN SUBPOENA THE 911 TAPE AS PART OF A LAWSUIT!

ANY PEACE OFFICER OR PUBLIC OFFICIAL ABOVE THE 911 DISPATCHER HAS ACCESS TO THOSE 911 CALLS

‘...tampering with the transcript is so outrageous...”

Yep. A 911 call is a matter of public record. In many states, “injury to public records” is a crime, punishable by a fine or imprisonment.

Interesting that there’s been no mention by police of any security cams in the club which might have yielded a wealth of info. Mainstream media would have splashed video excerpts 24/7.
I’m thinking the nightclub probably didn’t install any surveillance cams, to protect the “privacy” of the clientele and whatever they did there.
Mateen and his handlers no doubt noted the abscence of cameras when he cased the joint. This was another plus in selecting the target. No video inside which might contradict the official narrative.
But the Obamabots still can’t get the story straight.

He did not say "God." In Arabic, he said "Allah."

BIG DIFFERENCE!
