Three blocks from where Mohamad Barakat opened fire on police officers and firefighters, the Islamic Society of Fargo-Moorhead squats across from a school bus company. Nearby are other elements of the new enclave like the Somali Community Development group which offers English and citizenship classes and the Al Hamdi Restaurant from whose vicinity an eyewitness reported hearing the shots that took the life of one police officer and wounded two others.
Officially authorities claim to be baffled by Mohamad’s decision to open fire on cops and firefighters, but the decision by the FBI, the U.S. Marshals Service and the bomb squad to search Mohamad’s apartment suggests that they privately have an explosive motive in mind.
“The first thing we always want to know in a situation like this is, ‘Why?”Why would somebody do this?'” Chief David Zibolski wondered. Perhaps he should ask in Fargo’s own Little Mogadishu and inquire of the politicians who turned Fargo into a refugee camp.
If Mohamad acted in the name of Islam, it would not be the first terror attack from Fargo.
In 2016, Dahir Adan, a Somali refugee who penetrated the country along with a massive family that was tragically resettled in Fargo, went on a stabbing spree in a St. Cloud, MN mall. The Somali refugee had gone around the mall shouting “Allahu Akbar” dedicating the violence to his Islamic deity, and demanding to know if potential targets were Muslims before stabbing them.
ISIS claimed credit for the attack after Adam, like Mohamad, was fatally shot and killed, but not until after he stabbed 10 Americans. Fargo Muslims however quickly rushed to play the victim.
“Somali mall workers are afraid to go to their jobs today. I was even afraid to use public restrooms,” Hukun Abdullahi, a local nonprofit leader, had claimed.
Moorhead Mayor Del Rae Williams admitted that her biggest concern from the Muslim terrorist attack was that, “the more we make, you know, these kind of things an issue, the more people are abusive to (refugees) publicly.”
Police Chief David Todd denied, “I don’t have any indication that radicalization is occurring here in Fargo.” Seven years later, Officer Jake Wallin, who had survived Afghanistan and Iraq, was murdered by a Muslim attacker in Fargo. There’s never any indication until someone dies.
The violent attacks by Mohamad Barakat and Dahir Adan may surprise people who still think of Fargo, North Dakota as quintessentially American. Refugee resettlement has changed that.
8% of Fargo is foreign born. Much of that population comes from the Middle East and Islamic areas in Africa like Sudan and Somalia. Even much of the European refugee contingent is Bosnian. The massive influx of refugee resettlement allowed local politicians to boast that Fargo was growing much faster than the rest of the state or the country.
Fargo’s population shot up from 74,000 in 1990 to 90,000 in 2000 to 128,000 today. Somalis flooded Fargo, as did Iraqis, Bosnians and Bangladeshis. Amid the pure snows rose mosques, ethnic welfare nonprofits, Halal markets and other outposts of the new population.
By 2000, six hundred Somali families occupied Fargo, by 2004, Somalis outnumbered Hispanics in the Fargo public school system. Refugee resettlement, led by Lutheran Social Services, continued bombarding the state with foreign migrants, 70% of them embedded into the Fargo area.
“Millennials who are increasingly working in these jobs like to have a multicultural area that has differences in people,” Fargo Mayor Tim Mahoney contended. “We really need a diverse population to be more like a normal American city.”
When Fargo City Commissioner Dave Piepkorn had warned that millions of taxpayer dollars were being spent on refugee resettlement and that the area was becoming more dangerous, Somalis launched a recall campaign. Piepkorn has since been stripped of Deputy Mayor status.
Little wonder that few elected officials have had the courage to speak out against what is being done to Fargo and North Dakota.
Lutheran Social Services of North Dakota, its coffers swollen by dumping migrants from Islamic terror states on the area, suddenly faced a dieback under the Trump administration. The organization filed for bankruptcy and shut down in 2021, but rather than offering any relief, things actually got worse for Fargo and North Dakota.
Under Republican Gov. Doug Burgum, the former head of Lutheran Social Services, became the Executive Policy Director at the state’s Department of Human Services. Burgum, who is now running for president, announced that the state would take over refugee resettlement from Lutheran Social Services. Burgum had previously turned down an offer from the Trump administration to allow governors to end the practice of refugee dumping.
While Gov. Burgum claimed that the state would handle the invasion more responsibly than Lutheran Social Services had, bringing in the head of LSS put the lie to any such notion. Gov. Burgum had proclaimed that April would be Arab American Heritage Month, not to honor the Christian Lebanese, actual refugees who had first fled Islamic terror to move to North Dakota, but those Muslims who “built the first mosque in the United States of America.”
By 2022, the Lutheran Immigration and Refugee Service North Dakota had taken over for the LSS and 78 Afghans, along with Syrians, Somalis and Iraqis were being resettled in the state.
That same year Rep. Hamida Dakane, who wears a hijab, became the first Somali legislator in the state House of Representatives from a district in Fargo. Dakane had found fame after an alleged vandalism incident at the Moorhead Fargo Islamic Center, holding up a “Hate Has No Home in Moorhead” sign as representatives of “Lutheran, Catholic, Presbyterian and Satanism” movements gathered to help. Then she joined Fargo’s Human Rights Commission.
“I am not representing a Muslim state,” Dakane, who entered this country on a student visa, noted. “There is a lot of things in Islam that doesn’t align with Democrats, but that doesn’t apply to the community.”
Mohamad Barakat may have had less patience waiting for North Dakota to become Islamic.
Fargo is slowly getting there. Somali restaurants, halal markets and ethnic associations are dotting the map. Especially around the area where Mohamad Barkat murdered a police officer. School districts are spending a fortune dealing with non-English speakers, primarily Somalis and Kurds, and a great deal of money goes to subsidize Headstart and food stamps.
Gangs proliferate trafficking in drugs and prostitution. And worse crimes appear and disappear.
Omar Mohamed Kalmio, a Somali refugee who shot and killed his American Sioux girlfriend, her mother, brother and another family member in nearby Minot, is still fighting his life sentence. Kalmio should have been in ICE custody after he and a group of Somalis had previously stabbed a man in the back with a knife.
In Grand Forks, Hawo Osman Ahmed, had allegedly threatened women with a knife. “Come over here I’m going to cut you,” she had warned, “I’m going to slice your neck.”
“I feel like I’m a Muslim woman who’s being attacked because I am a Muslim woman living in Grand Forks,” she later complained.
Authorities generally steer clear of such cases if they know what’s good for them. The prosecution of a sex trafficking ring by the Somali Outlaws gang across the country which allegedly involved girls as young as twelve was shut down by federal authorities, advocates and political pressure amid claims of racism, Islamophobia and cultural differences .
“We are heartbroken by this tragic loss,” Gov. Burgum said in response to the Somali act of violence that killed one police officer and wounded two others. “We also pray for the full recovery of the officers and civilian who were wounded in this horrible incident.”
‘Horrible incidents’ like these could be averted by ending refugee resettlement.
Gov. Burgum refused to end refugee resettlement when he had the opportunity to do so. The blood of the victims of refugee resettlement are on the hands of those who enable it.
Virtue signaling white idiot voters got those police officers shot.
Never ever ever forget. Many of America’s churches participated in this grift. They accepted in Normas amounts of money from the government in order to re-settle America’s enemies into her heartland. They did this, knowing that the money could have been much better spent by helping people where they lived. If your tithe ends up in the hands of a corporate denomination, you are likewise participating in this. The sad part is they don’t even need your money anymore in the church, they get your money from your tax dollars.
There are no refugees in America. They are all infiltrators and foreign agents. My Walmart is one of the first places these “asylum” seekers stop in Texas. Funny, they don’t look like the posers we see on TV pretending to walk up from Honduras, Ecuador, Guatamala, etc. They’re sparkling clean and wearing sparkling clothes and all, even their toddlers, are yakking on cellphones in Walmart. Not exactly what you would expect asylum-seeking, “refugees” to look like. They’ve had it really tough I guess. Thankfully, the females didn’t lose any weight carrying three toddlers on their long “Trail of Tears” hike. At least that’s what the “media” and the DNC voter registration operatives are telling us.
Or it may suggest that they simply want to sweep things under the rug.
For what it is worth, I knew the Peipkorn family whose member is mentioned in the article when West Fargo was my hometown. Great common sense people who did a lot of things for the community. They even hired an artist to paint a full length mural on one of their warehouses along Main Avenue to beautify an otherwise dreary drive.
This is the kind of thanks they get for questioning the kind of diversity idiocy currently in style.
It’s a CLEVER move, to go to sparsely populated states...and start the takeover there, pretty much under the radar.
Muslims vs Homosexuals
What a dilemma. If only there were a way to get rid of them both. /spit
I smell the influence of Gyorgy Schwartz.
As stated in article.....”8% of Fargo is foreign born. Much of that population comes from the Middle East and Islamic areas in Africa like Sudan and Somalia.”.....
And how many of them are on welfare?
As it would be remarked on GatesofVienna the Mohammed coefficient is 100%.
One of these days——Americans who are church going believers are going to realize the the biggest contributors to the invasion of “refugees” are the churches.
CHURCHES ARE CONTAMINATING EVERY TOWN & VILLAGE.
100%
S hole people make s holes. These people are not compatible with western civilization. But it is too late. They are here outbreeding their hosts and destroying everything made for them.
Being as I am from North Dakota, I have been hearing a lot of this. It really sucks.
Cleverly planned. They were mostly flown in to international airports (by night) during the Obama years (may still be happening, but will never be reported as it was), strangely all articles that mentioned this weird phenomenon/conspiracy have disappeared from search engines. Then they were provided for and sent all over the US. Muslims randomly sent to rural red state cities, they obviously had a appealing nature do to sightings of Mohammad in various US laundry mats (S). Obviously major cities where included
Just love how none of them had family roots for support. Yet they all had travel money and cash to immediately get established, notice all of the Islamic homeless all over the streets. Witch then begs the question, if they were so Richly Blessed in Somalia, why did they come here?
We all know why..
Couldn't tell if they were all Somalis, but the unmarked plane and VIP treatment sure seemed to indicate it.
The wal marts in Fargo and Morehead have many muslim workers in them.
The wally world in Williston Nd was a scary place to go when I lived there.
I never went in there without Colonel Colt
Catholic charities and Lutheran social services are responsible for all this
Somalis is probably a generalized term for black or middle eastern Muslims. Would be interesting to find out if they were Sunni or Shia. Would probably help understand who in the CIA/State Dept is funding the Islamic transformation of the US.
