Nearly three years ago, a Minneapolis man blew himself up oceans away in Somalia.
His death put Minnesota at the heart of a still unfolding multinational counterterrorism probe that has seen 20 Minnesotans indicted on terror-related charges, at least another nine killed in fighting overseas and a handful more arrested and convicted. Others have been charged with fundraising or wiring money to a terror group in Somalia, and one of the men charged is scheduled to go on trial next month -- a first in the case.
U.S. Attorney General Eric Holder visited Minneapolis last month to reaffirm his office's commitment to rooting out those responsible for the recruiting of young Somali-Americans to return to Africa to fight for the terrorist group Al-Shabab.
Yet investigators appear no closer to unmasking a leader of the nebulous network that found foot soldiers in the Twin Cities.
The FBI's failure so far to publicly uncover a mastermind has spawned disillusionment among some in the local Somali community who wonder when, if ever, justice will be served.

None of these women has a cell phone glued to their face...
Little Mogadishu, a.k.a. the Twin Cities, needs a house cleaning starting with free one way tickets for any Somali who wants to return to that perfect sharia law state of Somalia. If they do not want to live among the infidels there is the door.
Yep.

Starbucks? Why am I not surprised?
Hey... but Starbucks doesn’t ban personal carry!
There’s hope!
The Riverside SB will be my next open carry foray...
If life is so rough for these sows how did these wimmens get so damned fat?
Hey Deb Stabacow....you out there?
Where is Mooch’s diet when you need it.
It doesn’t apply to ‘THEM’.
Is there supposed to be a < / sarc > notation after that statement?
Last time I was up Nort, I was stunned at the number of Somalis in Burnsville. They wait on shoppers in the mall, at the Holiday Inn, damned near everywhere...
IMHO, you are American, as in the USA, or you are a (fill in the blank). If a person puts their country of origin BEFORE American, then that is where their allegiance lies. GO HOME or assimilate into the mainstream of the USA. Learn our language, learn our laws (not sharia), stay off welfare, etc.
OK, vent over.
