(CNN published an article which is referenced by this writer; what is stated here is NOT the CNN article.)
From the outset our research has pointed in the direction that Omar Mateen was committing an act of Jihad terrorism targeting a facility/venue he knew well, Pulse Nightclub. Nothing about the event, or the preparatory behavior prior to the attack, held the appearance of a pure suicide mission. The possibility of getting caught or killed obviously part of the process – but the preferred objective was to exit and escape.
Early on it simply appeared he intended to walk in, shoot and kill as many as possible, and then exit within less than a minute. His plan was foiled by the off-duty security (fully uniformed police officer) who engaged Mateen and forced his way back into the nightclub.
As further evidence toward that end it is revealed Mateen pre-purchased three airline tickets for himself, his wife and his son the day prior to the shooting for use the day following the shooting.
When you add in the fact his mother was the first one to identify her 29-year-old son had not returned home, an increasingly clear picture emerges that the family knew of the entire terror attack, at least the broad outlines, including the escape plan.
What B.S.
To certainly get to heaven a Muslim DIES in Jihad.
Jihadists go immediately to heaven with Allah and don't have to wait until judgement day.
Mateen called the cops and told them where he was and what he was doing, and pledged allegiance to ISIS.

$9,000.00 Isn’t there some kind of cut off at $10,000 when coming and going via plane?
Not everything is clear — maybe a suicide mission was Plan B.
Not all jihadists are superhuman. Some have ordinary human conflicts.
SF...Isn’t that where the father’s show broadcasts from?
And someone heard him talking to a woman. At the very least someone driving a getaway car had to be nearby. My initial guess was he runs in gun a blazing, kills as many as he can, as he heads towards that employee door in the back. He was supposed to escape out that narrow alley and jump into the getaway car. Unfortunately for him one of the terrified club goers blocked or locked that escape door.
After he was trapped with no escape possible. He then needed to delay until an alternate escape could be attempted. And he did eventually try to escape through the wall hole.
He actually expected to survive and escape? Words fail me!
One at a time; the last 30 or so in the men’s room where he trapped them.
I've often wondered.
Obama was warned on numerous occasions by numerous advisors to NOT release the Moslem terrorists from Guantanamo because our enemies would view it as weakness and it would invite more attacks on Americans by Moslem terrorists.
Obama ignored these warnings.
49 dead Americans in Orlando by a Moslem terrorist.
These deaths belong to Obama.
He was warned and he arrogantly ignored those warnings.
I don’t care if he is an American of African Descent.
He’s an idiot.
Uh, where is the wife?
Have any of the tickets been used?
I’ve been saying that there was more than one shooter since that Sunday morning, but can’t find anything that even hints at more than Mateen. Do you have a link or reference to that witness statement?
Did the feds let the wife use her ticket or was she secreted away with the Saudi Prince who shares her maiden name?
Yes; so did Farook and Malik, the shooters in San Bernardino.
No, I do not think they are stupid. Possibly they’re being told lies OR the people formulating these pseudo “lone wolf” attacks do not know how to pull-off coordinated terror actions.
These terror acts when assessed objectively in totality look like community based terror cells involving numerous persons plus the families.
Consider the following:
The 20-years old James Howell, from Indiana, arrested in CA while Orlando was still on-going told the local arresting officers that he knew Omar and made the comment, “Omar and Brandy were supposed to get away. Something went wrong”.
Why would he mention the name “Omar”?
And who is this Brandy person? Was he/she/it one of Omar’s partners who helped him w/the shooting?
If they were supposed to get away, and Omar was driving back home to get his family on a plane (the tickets were Tampa to SFO), was there to be another incident in gay-friendly San Fran?
Sure looks like someone, somewhere is coordinating terror attacks, does it not?
“Where is the wife?”
Good question. She seems to have disappeared.
Wife is probably walking the streets disguised as a garbage sack in some foreign hell hole as the FBI has lost track of her.
It is plausible that some people were hit by bullets fired by police.
Yep.
