Activist says Somali teen who returned to homeland from Minneapolis killed in artillery fire
2009-06-08
Somali activist
You mean "activist", i.e. jihad recruiter
says one of several young Somalis who left Minneapolis to return to their homeland last year has been reported killed in Mogadishu. Omar Jamal of the Somali Justice Advocacy Center says his Minneapolis group is looking into the death of the 17-year-old and asking federal officials for help in getting his body returned for burial.
Why? He's not an American in word or deed. Let him rot in an anonymous hole he craved and deserves.
He said the teen was killed in artillery fire.
No doubt shooting off his manhood at the time.
Groups of young Somalis went missing from Minneapolis last year and were feared recruited by radical elements in Minneapolis Somalia. That nation has seen a recent surge of violence as insurgents try to overturn the government and install a strict Islamic state.

#8  his Minneapolis group is looking into the death of the 17-year-old and asking federal officials for help in getting his body returned for burial. Let them go to Somalia & celebrate his admission into Paradise there, and bury him there. I'm sure they will be warmly received. And we won't have to let the non-citizens back in the country.

#7  ...asking federal officials for help in getting his body returned for burial.

The Federal Government didn't send his dumb ass to Somalia, why should they pay to have it returned?

#6  But he was just finding himself, and his confused life was cut short by the kinetic energy of an errant round.

#3  There seem to be several stories of how he died. Other stories say he was shot in the head (i.e. murdered while not in combat).

There is some local speculation that he was executed for using his brain not wanting to be a martyr.

#2  There is no jihad and no WoT or even an OCO. Obama tole the Muslim world that by not even mentioning it in Cairo. This is all a big misunderstanding which we now apologize for.
