President condemns jihadi recruiting in Minnesota
Finally, a strong condemnation of jihadi recruits targeting Muslim youths in Minnesota from the president.
No, not the president of the United States.
The president of Somalia:
The president of Somalia on Sunday denounced the recruiting of young men from Minnesota’s huge Somali community for terrorist activity in his war-ravaged homeland, and said he plans to work with the U.S. government to bring those still alive back home.
President Sheik Sharif Sheik Ahmed spoke with The Associated Press while visiting the Minneapolis area, where authorities believe as many as 20 young Somali men—possibly recruited by a vision of jihad to fight—returned to the impoverished nation over the last two years.
At least three have died in Somalia, including one who authorities believe was the first American suicide bomber. Three others have pleaded guilty in the U.S. to terror-related charges.
…The president also said he wants an ongoing relationship with the families in Minnesota and to work with them to “stop the evil at work”…
He said he hopes it will “not be long” before he brings peace to Somalia. He knows he needs to rid his country of terrorism.
“We ourselves cannot stay there if we don’t do that,” he said.

» Obama’s new budget is a bad joke













I really couldn’t believe it when I first read:
I thought, “No way!”
But then I read…
and I understood that Obama had not acted contrary to “his” book:
Michelle, Do you care to comment on either of the following?
They are too focused on right wing terrorists to be concerned with the a few insignificant individuals in Minnesota.
Since they will be out of the country next election they cannot campaign or vote against Obama so they are not worth tracking.
Our AWOL WH resident is busy with “low profile” anniversary celebration photo ops.
As a Minnesotan, I would like to thank all the Democrats in this state who brought in Somalis by the Titanic load and sank them on my state shores. NO BACKGROUND CHECKS. These people have NOT and will NOT assimilate into our American culture. They have been strategically placed in condensed locations in Minneapolis (DEM Rep Keith Ellison voters). Their crime rate with violence, robbery and murder is skyrocketing. Thank you Democrats. Oh and Mr President Sheik Sharif Sheik Ahmed, you should cease dumping your terrorists on my soil and repatriate them back to yours. They have NO allegiance to the United States of America. These same Somali’s Lied at a Minneapolis Rally about Ethiopia and the United States bombing innocent Somali civilians in 2007.
OK. I got got. I saw this in the Reader and thought that Obama finally got it.
Thanks. The president of Somalia gets it.
Obama. Moron.
You know, if we could trade our president for the president of Somalia…
Weird. FB is preventing me from sharing this.
There are no ‘terrorists’
They’re just ‘friends we haven’t met yet’!
barf!
Didn’t get me. I know Odumbo really, really well. He’s like all Communists – he hates America, and would NEVER speak out againt Jihad in Minnesota.
He is purposely extending this recession, obviously.
Hey, Odumbo! Cut taxes and see the economy recover!
Odumbo: The One Idiot.
Largest Somali populations in the USA? Minnesota and Maine. Why?
When Clinton screwed US Soldiers over in Somalia, he felt so bad about it that he brought the families of the killers back to America. Somalis aren’t stupid so they simply looked for states with the highest social benefits (that means welfare). The M’s won out.
Now, the Somalis in America get to kill us physically and ruin us economically in the bargain. Thanks guys.
Even more thanks go to Democrat and Republican politicians who made it all happen (mostly Dems but the Republicans had a few thrown in and, on a subject like this, even one is too many). the Dems have spent 40 years publicly hating America and doing everything in their power to destroy us from the inside. This is one of many, many examples.
Red pill:
Indeed.
The only issue I take with your comment is that very few of our “friends” have stuck with us.. especially over the last 8 years. Never count on the Euros to be friends to the USA – unless they need something from us.
Nations do not have friends-they have interests-all the world sees us on the decline, a weakling in power and a people more interested in Bread and Circus than Liberty and Pride.
While we cringe at the Apology Tours the rest of the world snickers in contempt. But then they were shaken by the “religion of peace” speech. We allow more and more potential jihadist into our country to prove we are tolerant and wonder where the Twin Towers went. Our lack of resolve after the 1993 attack guaranteed the second-we might s well give the Somali youths lessons in weapons and explosives–they will love us for it.
For lack of a better term we could call it the Blind Sheik Project.
When is the next photo op of the Messiah, Barrack Hussein Obama (Peace be Unto Him. Praise His Holy Name. Bow before Him in Worship and Adoration. All Devotion and Surrender be Unto Him) and His Divine Wife, Michelle “Goddess of the Universe” Obama, engaged in something terribly important, like dressing up in expensive formal wear and traveling thousands of miles to attend a theater presentation, attend and elegant ball, and dine at the most exquisite, Epicurean establishment?
By the way, have Our Lord and Savior and Our Mother of Grace, Love, Mercy, and Compassion learned to dance since Inauguration night when they attended several balls (spending millions of dollars)? They did not know how to properly dance at that time.
I simply cannot wait for more of the Divine Duo, the New Camelot, US Royalty spending their time in the really important things, rather than such nonsense such as reducing the size of government, lowering taxes, defeating Islamic Jihadi Terrorism, sealing the US Borders, defeating al Qaeda and the Taliban and their ilk in Afghanistan, just to name a few.
All Praise and Worship be unto our Lord, Savior, and Messiah, Barrack Hussein Obama, and his Divine Wife, the One Who Makes Great Sacrifices!

ArizonaNeanderthal,
I enjoyed reading your comment.
I am sure you expressed what many of us feel and experience.
Thank you.

Let’s see now…..the president of Somalia is working with our government to bring some of the terrorists home to this country? Have I got that right?
I’m speechless.
They’re just trying to keep busy until ice fishing season.
Grumpy Old Somali
I used to live in Burnsville, MN and I can tell you I’m not surprised that they were recruiting there. Crammed into an apartment building, families of 8-10 individuals, the young men would stalk the hallways and announce loudly in elnglish how a woman should be properly disciplined. I’ve heard on MN talk radio(ktlk 100.3) that the cold weather is causing them to long for home, but I still wouldn’t move back to Minnesota until they cancel their sanctuary status for illegals.
*english…damn you typos!!
Any word from Minnesota’s junior
a$$holesenator?As far as The One goes, I think he is still in the fetal position crying over his Olympic disaster.
As another Minnesotan, I agree completely! I live in Bloomington, about 10 minutes from the Mall of America. I am convinced that the MOA will be one of their targets. We need to send these strange creatures back to their respective sandboxes before they kill us. I know that sounds extreme and uncharitable. So does blowing up my kids. They haven’t proven themselves as fit to be citizens of the U.S. There are a few here and there who are trying, but the odds are against them, as they are incapable of assimilating into another culture. That is the key to living here…keep your culture inside your family group and become a real American!! Or, go home. We give these people every chance for a good and FREE life. And they want to kill us. Spit.
If forgot for a minute that he was in the picture now. But it all makes sense. Well, makes sense in a bad way that is.
what will minnesota’s response be when these peace loving muslims demand sharia law for some american woman “convert” married to some somali religious zealot who cuts off her head for daring to question his authority? hmmmm.
Connie!
I did get the article on my facebook!

I can’t seen why we ever would want to bring a bunch of Somali’s to America. Perhaps Bill Clinton would like to transfer all of them to Chappaquaw? Perhaps the liberal trolls on this forum will volunteer to have a bunch of Somali’s move into their neighborhood?
Yeah, I didn’t think so.
When I read the heading, I thought “NO WAY.” Then I read further and it was the president of SOMALIA, and then it all made sense. It was just too far out of whack to believe that Barack Obama would do something that made sense and was sane.
To Obama, the enemy are people like Rush Limbaugh, Mark Levin, Sean Hannity, and Glenn Beck. They’re also the jihadi murderers’ enemies, so obviously ‘the enemy of my enemy is my friend.
To put it in another way, Obama is an enemy of the United States of America, and what better way can he cause our nation’s complete downfall than to become PRESIDENT and do whatever he can to grind everything to a halt from within. I just wonder when his treason will become so blatant that it will take a coup of patriots and loyal Americans to remove the cancer that is destroying us…
Feh…if The One can’t have a fawning bunch complying to his every whim, then he loses every time. Obama is a clown. He’s had so many people bestow so much upon him, that he believes in the hype. But THIS time he had a cold slap or reality across his smug face, and it HUUUUURRRRRRRRRTTTTTTT!
The PAIN of having failed–when there were people who weren’t willing to genuflect and prostrate themselves to him, but exercised the the FREEDOM of choosing presented the best case for hosting the Olympics–it was the pain of someone who hates when he cannot have his way. Remember, he was flying back home when Rio was chosen, so he left in a huff when he was rejected, so all of his “congratulations” to the winner was BS.
This little episode speaks volumes about who Obama is (a petty, self-serving little worm), and his utter incompetence when it comes to a matter between himself and anyone else. If there aren’t others available to remove all obstacles out of his way, then he stumbles and falls flat on his face.

HI ARIZONA NEANDERTHAL–good comment on international “friends”. George Washington had good insights into this–no foreign “entanglements” that are detrimental to our national security and financial interests.
***
Only when it is in our interests should we put our money and lives on the line.
***
As far as the President of Somalia–is there enough of a “country” there to need a president? Another failed tribal state. But I hope we deport any felony law breaking Jihadi supporting Somalis in the U.S.A. back home to meet the wall and firing squad their Prez has waiting for them.
