FBI received tip about cop-killing Syrian gunman Mohamad Farakat in 2021

[Daily Mail, where America gt its news] As predicted, another known wolf.

Mohamad Barakat killed a cop and wounded two others in Fargo on July 14

He was on his way to carry out a mass casualty attack that would have had dozens if not hundreds of victims

He was brought down eventually by 32-year-old cop Zach Robinson

FBI admits to DailyMail.com it visited him 3 times in 2021 - then did nothing

In response to inquiries from DailyMail.com about whether or not he was on any form of watch list or was known to police, the FBI today revealed that agents received an anonymous tip in 2021 about how many weapons he owned.

They however forwarded the matter on to Fargo Police Department, whose officers visited his home three times in 2021.

They had received a tip from a concerned member of the public.

The cops spoke with Barakat once, during which time he insisted he had 'no ill-intentions' despite his enormous weapons inventory. They then decided not to pursue any kind of action against him.

'During this visit, FPD detectives observed Barakat had several firearms in the apartment; however, none of them were illegal. Barakat was not prohibited from acquiring or possessing guns.

Police say they have not found any evidence that he was a religious fanatic, and believe instead that he was motivated purely by hate and fascinated by mass shootings.

That sounds like Sudden Jihad Syndrome to me. To fulfill the requirements he needn’t hate those he killed — the only necessity is that they were not among the faithful.

#1 His arsenal was legal but he wasn’t a citizen or even a legal permanent resident? I didn’t know that was possible.

#3 but he wasn’t a citizen or even a legal permanent resident?

He came to America legally as an asylum seeker, Glenmore, then became an American citizen a few years ago.
