The Somali-born student, who injured 11 people in a car-and-knife attack at Ohio State University before being shot and killed, had lived in Pakistan along with his family for about seven years.
The 18-year-old attacker, identified as Abdul Razak Ali Artan, was a Somali refugee who left his homeland with his family in 2007, lived in Pakistan and then came to the United States in 2014 as a legal permanent resident, NBC News quoted law enforcement officials as saying.
He temporarily lived in Dallas before settling in Ohio.
He rammed his car into a crowd at Ohio State University on Monday and attacked them with a butcher knife, injuring 11 before police fatally shot him.
Investigators are investigating whether the attack was an act of terror by Artan, who had once criticised the media for its portrayal of Muslims.
In a magazine in August, he was quoted as saying that he is scared to pray in the public because of media coverage of the religion.
"I'm a Muslim, it's not what the media portrays me to be. If people look at me, a Muslim praying, I don't know what they're going to think, what's going to happen. But, I don't blame them. It's the media that put that picture in their heads," Artan had aid.
He also appears to have made an anti-US posting on Facebook minutes before the attack, on a page that was quickly disabled or taken down by authorities, US media said.
"I can't take it any more. America! Stop interfering with other countries, especially the Muslim Ummah. We are not weak. We are not weak, remember that," the post quoted by ABC television said.
"If you want us Muslims to stop carrying lone wolf attacks, then make peace," the post reads. "We will not let you sleep unless you give peace to the Muslims."
Officials said 11 people were being treated at local hospitals for stabbing wounds and injuries from the motor vehicle. None of their injuries were life-threatening.

Sorry I forgot the link.
No. They are not citizens and must renew their status every 10 years. They are here legally but they are called legal-aliens.
Probably lived with Barky's friend's family.
I’d be more than happy to leave Muslims in ‘peace’ in their own countries where they can blow each other up to their heart’s content.
I truly believe most Mulsims (like most people everywhere) just want to live in peace and raise their families. Unfortunately, they are going to have to arm up and fight for “peace” from substantial minority of their own fellow Muslims or they will never have peace.
None of that need have anything to do with us however. Muslims didn’t care about Christians when they were murdering each other in religious wars in Europe, so I don’t see why their religious wars are our concern.
Trump is triggering flight forward panic reactions in the pin balls of the Left. This is good. We should help them. Nothing enrages like laughter and ridicule. The Left has become quaint, a social archetype that will soon become comedy relief as a stock sitcom character like Maynard Krebs in Dobie Gillis.
Refugees get the full welfare ride for a min. Of 5 years.
It’s not like he showed the signs that DHS looks for...
Not a veteran
Not a Christian
Not a nun
Not an old lady
Not a little girl
Not ...

If the news is true about his familys sojourn in Pakistan then it confirms a point I have been trying to make for a long timewe are picking up Somalis and other Muslim refugees around the world and thus vetting is almost impossible!

Think about this, in the case of Pakistan, a Muslim country, why are they sending us Somalis and why are we accepting them? You know they are being processed in to your towns through the UNHCR office in Pakistan.

Can we count on an honest screening process there, apparently not, or we wouldnt have the Ohio State slasher attack yesterday.
Go to the map (it is only for last month) I posted on Sunday that is available at Wraps.net.
It is a processing country map and see that in the month of October we took in 97 refugees through Pakistan.
Then you go to this map which lists the nationalities
admitted in October and you can see that 60 of the 97 were Pakistanis (I sure hope they were all Christians!). Who are the 37 others (who told the UN they would be persecuted if sent home) that we admitted via the UN through Pakistan in October? Somalis like this Ohio slashers family? You can bet some are Afghans, but who knows? We dont. The US State Department knows, but the public doesnt.
Where is Congress?
The point I am making is that while we yak about screening Syrians, all over the world we are taking illegal aliens (with virtually no paperwork) who arrived in some safe (for them) country and transform them in to refugees to be placed in your towns and supported on your taxpayers dime!

She also mentions the Australia deal
We have seen the most clear case of how outrageous a process this is with the Australia deal just in the last few weeks.

Thanks. So he’s not a citizen. Some websites are interpreting a permanent resident equals a US Citizen.
<><> collecting welfare, food stamps and, healthcare benefits
<><> cashing ADD checks for his "fibromyalgia" or whatever.
<><>Cashing hefty SS checks by claiming "asylum."
And that's just for one identity.

Our sap-happy government cannot even assure Americans that it can enforce immigration laws already on the books.
NTL REVIEW/BY DAVID HANSON----The immigrant Muslim Boston Bomber brothers---riding the US gravy train....accompanied by virtually every family member--- offer us a teachable moment about what has become near-suicidal US immigration policies.
LAWS CURRENTLY ON THE BOOKS BEING RELENTLESSLY VIOLATED:
(1) foreign nationals in the US must at least avoid criminal activity,
(2) foreigners must stay off public assistance,
(3) the US govt is disinclined to grant "asylum" (means a free ride on the US gravy train and endless SS payments) to fearful refugees from war-torn Islamic regions,
(4) on-the-book govt mandates that force struggling taxpayers to foot the bill for the refugees to go back and forth between America and their supposedly hostile homelands on the taxpayers' dime.
=============================================

Isn't it strange (smirk)?
Theyre always whining they're running out of SS money for working Americans who put in money for years.....
Theyre always whining they're running out of pension money aging working Americans put in for years.
Theyre always whining they're running out of Medicare money aging working Americans put in for years.
BUT....
They n-e-v-e-r e-v-e-r seem to run out of tax dollars to fund sanctuary cities, welfare and food stamps, education and healthcare, endless SS payments and EITC checks for these parasitic immigrants.
All of them on our soil illegally....money-guzzling creeps who never put a dime into the system.
They want us to believe the Ohio Somali butcher was "hurting" for his fellow Muslims...
so he went on a murderous spree and mowed down and slashed innocent Ohio State students.
That makes no sense whatsoever....nothing but Muslim agit-prop setting us up for more hate-filled Somali refugees in our communities plotting to kill us.
Americans cannot even fathom the kind of visceral hatred these deranged Muslims have for us. The more they get from us, the more they hate us.
The Somali butcher was welcomed into the US by these self-same students. He's prolly getting a free education, loads of social services and multiple US govt checks (prolly under several identities). No doubt, his killing car is also a freebie.
President Trump......take them out....as far away as possible.
“legal permanent resident” is official terminology for a Green Card.
I am still shocked that this kid had one with only two years in the U.S. I know immigrants who had to wait a decade or more for theirs.
Obama is REALLY greasing the skids for Islamist infiltrators.
Somalia and Pakistan. Truly the championship match for Most F’d Up Nation on the Planet.
According to a friend of mine who was there while in the Army, Somalia already has @sshole of the World wrapped up.
So, can someone remind me why we let people like this into our country? What could they POSSIBLY do to enrich or benefit the people of this country in any way (and I’m not looking for “Well, the funeral industry does well with lots of them around”).
As a refugee, they are entitled to:
-Temporary Assistance for Needy Families (TANF) formerly known as AFDC
-Medicaid
-Food Stamps
-Public Housing
-Supplemental Security Income (SSI)
-Social Security Disability Insurance
-Administration on Developmental Disabilities (ADD) (direct services only)
-Child Care and Development Fund
See entire list at #16

Someone should fix the title.. It’s THE Ohio STATE University.
(I attended Ohio University in Athens,Ohio_)
“Obama is REALLY greasing the skids for Islamist infiltrators.”
He’s let in millions of illegals and legitimized people who haven’t had to work for the privilege of entering the country.
How does a Somali living in Pakistan walk into the US as a permanent legal resident?
Something missing from this article.
Well yes they have to have a means to live while planning their attacks on us.
Well, the media does portray muslims as peace loving, tolerant people. They are completely wrong on that.
