Terrorist cell is alive in Minneapolis, U.S. judge in ISIL case says
StarTribune ^ | Nov 19, 2016 | Stephen Montemayor

In sentencing nine young Somali-Minnesotans on terror conspiracy charges this week, U.S. District Judge Michael Davis closed a chapter in the federal government’s long, extraordinary investigation of ISIL recruitment in Minnesota.

In nine hearings over three days before a courtroom packed with the families of the young men who sought to give their lives to ISIL, Davis repeatedly underlined a clear message: There is a terrorist cell in Minneapolis and it is still alive today.

“Everyone talks about Brussels or Paris having cells,” Davis said one day, then, raising his voice: “We have a cell here in Minneapolis.”

AMEN!

That last letter, the L, refers to ISRAEL and ISIS doesn't have a foothold there....much to Obama's chagrin.

George Casey, “Our diversity, not only in our Army, but in our country, is a strength. And as horrific as this tragedy was, if our diversity becomes a casualty, I think that’s worse.”

So... presumably, ‘diversiity’ includes deliberately imported terrorists preying on Americans.

“They wanted moslem immigrants, they got moslem immigrants.”........

There is a cell of Somali’s in Barron, WI as well. Those people are an extension of the Minnesota based group. The WI group has been “peaceful” so far, most work for the “Jenny-O” meat processing company based there.

The only reason anyone calls it ISIL is to insult Israel. Levant includes Israel, if I understand it correctly.

ISIL is the description of the middle east without the existence of Israel.

Isn’t obammy using the term ISIL his attempt to inlude Isreal in the Levant area to associate them as a terrorist organization?

Somali-Minnesotans
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

Such a ridiculous designation.
They are Somalis.
They should never have been admitted to the US.
Another result of the screw ups of Daddy Bush.

That is precisely why Obama calls that terrorist group, ISIL, instead of ISIS.

Every time he says it, it’s a knife in the back to Israel, and a covert dog whistle to her enemies.

Not exactly.

He includes the "L" ( meaning Israel ) to signify that the Jews should be wiped out/sent out of Israel and given to the Palis/ISIS.
