Pentagon Announces Plans to Monitor Foreign Trainees' Social Media Posts
|
[Mil.com] The Pentagon has completed re-screening all Saudi students in U.S. military training programs following a deadly Dec. 6 shooting rampage at Naval Air Station Pensacola, Defense Department officials announced Thursday.
No indications of additional threats have surfaced, they said.
Moving forward, DoD plans to increase vetting practices for for Saudi Arabian and other foreign nationals in training at military bases in the U.S., including checks of their social media posts.
The recent screenings included about a dozen friends of 21-year-old Saudi Royal Air Force 2nd Lt. Mohammed Saeed Alshamrani, who was shot to death by a sheriff's deputy after killing three and injuring eight others in a classroom building at NAS Pensacola.
In a statement read in a conference call with reporters, Garry Reid, the director for Defense Intelligence, said the department ran all of the approximately 850 Saudi students currently in military training in the U.S. through databases and found "no information indicating an immediate threat scenario."
