The only ones who don’t realize how stupid the FBI looks is the FBI.

And a criminal FBI is a stupid FBI.

Yep I always notice that Jihadists always blame “Mental health issues” for their crimes

***He also apologised and blamed ‘mental health issues’ for Malik’s actions.***

ISLAM. Still the religion of the criminally insane.

British? I bet he was Fully Vaxxed.

Brandon made sure all Jihadi’s entering via DFW airport are fully vaxxed. The sothern Border, not so much.

It looks like he didn’t realiize there was a Bearcat and 40 guys with M4’s when he ran out the back door chasing the hostages. I wonder if someone popped him, there.

According to fox news this morning that’s exactly what the fbi is saying.

No indication he was targeting the Jewish community.

You pose an interesting question. He could only legally buy a firearm if he were a legal resident. Was he? Inquiring minds want to know.

We know that authorities were relentless in tracking down the young man who bought Kyle Rittenhouse’s rifle, so no doubt they’ll track down whoever provided Malik’s weapon. /s

Why was the FBI’s SWAT team involved? I’m sure Texas has plenty of SWAT teams available in the area. Does the FBI get involved in all hostage situations? Why? What Federal law was Malik violating?

Yeah cause apparently in Colleyville the ONLY thing there is a Synagogue..not a walmart, or a marshalls, or heck even a mini mall, to spew his stupidity about letting out a Jihadist murderer

.... As does the response by his local mosque and community sending its condolences to the family and expressing no sympathy for the terrified victims he took hostage.

Calling him “British” is a joke. His loyalty and that of his community is to the Ummah. Every body else is just an object.

I thought the gun was an airsoft, but because the FBI sent 70 people from DC to Dallas with just a couple hours notice, I think the gun came from someone on the FBI payroll.

Colleyville is “Old Money” for DFW, which means “1980’s”

New money all lives 5 miles north in Southlake.

Colleyville was were Dr’s, Lawyers, CEO’s & Cowboys Football players lived in the 1980’s up until the late 90’s.

The rich that lived there didn’t want to 4 lane the roads, so Colleyville was bypassed by progress and endure there self created traffic jabs to drive the 5-10 miles to the shops in other cities.

...or other religious facilities.

The FBI thinks everyone outside of DC is blind and stupid.

“The statement read: ‘Faisal Akram has sadly departed from this temporary world and returned to his Creator.

‘May the Almighty forgive all his sins and bless him with the highest ranks of Paradise. May Allah give strength and patience to his loved ones in dealing with their loss.’

Akram, who was reportedly armed with ‘backpacks of explosives’, had demanded the release of convicted Pakistani terrorist Aafia Siddiqu - known as Lady Al Qaeda - who police say was referred to as his sister. “
