The suspect who was shot dead as he carried out Thursday's 'terrorism-related' attack on a Texas naval air base has been identified by the FBI as a 20-year-old Syrian-born college student.

According to investigators, Adam Salim Alsahli opened fire at Naval Air Station Corpus Christi in an attack that wounded one sailor, a member of the base security force, but no one other than the assailant was killed.

A group that monitors online activity of jihadists has since claimed that Alsahli voiced support for hardline Islamic clerics on social media prior to the thwarted attack.

Seize the family’s assets, raze the house they live in, and put them on the next plane to Syria. CYA!

Let me revise that: The USN has bases for its fleet, and stations for its air wing. Yes, the Army has Forts.

You are correct. The Navy has bases, and the army has, forts

However when the Army is overseas, like Germany for example they do, or did have bases

If this attack had happened under Obama or GW, this Muslim wannabe POS killer could still be shooting our sailors and marines.

He is now probably way below room temp in a morgue, after he was neutralized.

It was “workplace violence.”

The Army has Forts

In the States, that is correct, but when they were in Europe they were called bases

Seems like years since I’ve heard any high ranking officials say “radical Islamic terror.” 🤔

Why is a Syrian born student even in this country? Syria was our enemy until Obama’s Caliphate attempt.

Then how the hell did he kill 14 people? One of them being in his (or her) mother’s womb?

If he’s like most of the ‘refugees’ from that part of the world, he also goes back to the old country to visit relatives during the holidays.
