25 reasons to end Somali
refugee resettlement now
By
LEO HOHMANN, 2/6/18
Of the 11 countries
included in President Trump’s refugee ban, Somalia has by far the worst track
record of assimilation.
That ban expired last
week and the U.S. will start accepting refugees again from the 11
high-risk nations, although Trump
promises a more “extreme” vetting.
Vetting, however,
offers few guarantees that the refugees will become good Americans. Many of the
Somalis who have run afoul of the law came here as child refugees, making them
impossible to vet.
Recently we learned
the Somali refugee who knifed two brothers at the Mall of America was not
responding to a confrontation over an attempt to steal clothing – a false narrative put out by Bloomington police last November – but actually carried out
an unprovoked act of jihad.
How do we know this?
He admitted it in late January with a public statement to the court.
Mall of America
jihadist Mahad Abdiaziz Adbiraham
In the prepared
statement, Mahad Abdiraham said
he went to the Mall of America on Nov. 12 to “answer the call for jihad by the
Chief of Believer, Abu-bakr Al-Baghdadi, may Allah protect him, and by the
Mujahiden of the Islamic State.”
Just before Christmas
we learned of a knife attack on an innocent woman, Morgan Evenson, while she
was walking home from work at the Apple Store in Minneapolis. She was stabbed 14 times by
a man described as Somali. That man remains at large and the Minneapolis police
falsely described the attack, again, as a failed robbery. This despite the fact
that he never reached for his victim’s purse.
The parade of Somali
knife attacks continued last week when Khadar Hassan, 24, of St. Cloud was
arrested and charged with second-degree assault for allegedly stabbing a woman
he’d had a previous relationship with and was ordered to stay away from,
the St.
Cloud Times reports.
There are now an
estimated 75,000 to 100,000 Somalis living in Minnesota. Many of the
resettlements in the St. Cloud, Austin, St. Joseph and Willmar areas have been
driven by the meatpacking industry.
And now Somali crime
is starting to leak across the border from Minnesota into South Dakota.Lutheran
Social Services, which operates a refugee resettlement office in Sioux Falls,
has offloaded more than 4,500 Somalis over the last decade.
But many of the
Somalis resettled originally in Sioux Falls migrate to Aberdeen in search of
work at Demkota Ranch Co., which runs a beef packing plant in the city. The
latest group of approximately 50 Somalis arrived in Aberdeen on a bus in
December, sources in the community told LeoHohmann.com. South Dakotans are beginning
to get a taste of the crime that has plagued Minnesota.
A Somali refugee
was convicted
last year for trying to
sexually assault a wheelchair-bound mentally disabled woman at a group home in
Aberdeen. Liban Mohamed, 39, had been in Aberdeen only a few days when he
wandered away from the White House Inn, where he was living while hoping to
land a job at the beef plant, and found the vulnerable woman sitting outside
the group home. If a caretaker had not walked up and seen him with his hand
reaching between the woman’s legs, there is no telling what he was planning to
do next. There have also been several shootings by Somalis in South Dakota.
In the summer of 2016,
two Aberdeen men were shot at, one hit and wounded, in the street outside the
Foxridge Apartments. The alleged shooter was Abdirhman Ahmad Noor, 24, who
walked up to the injured man lying in the street and shot him a second time in
the head. He miraculously survived, but Noor, who came to the U.S. as a child
refugee, was charged
with attempted murder and released on
$50,000 bail. He never showed up for his March 2017 court hearing. Noor remains
unaccounted for to this day.
Abdriham Ahmed Noor
was released on bond after being arrested for a shooting in Aberdeen, skipped
bail, and went into hiding.
South Dakota State
Senator and GOP congressional candidate Neal Tapio is leading perhaps the
nation’s most aggressive effort to expose the fraud of refugee resettlements
from Somalia and other jihadist hotbeds. Tapio has introduced a series of bills
that seek to rein in high-risk resettlements in his state. “While many people
see compassion to serve the less fortunate, the truth is the Somali community
has not been able to assimilate and has proven to be a major terror threat in
the United States,” Tapio said.
“Together with
nebulous forces in the multinational meatpacking corporations, resettlement
agencies and anti-American Islamic organizations with ties to terrorist
networks, the Muslim Brotherhood, along with willing accomplices in the media,
these policies to force relocation of proven subscribers to Islamic
fundamentalism need to be exposed and crushed,” Tapio added.
Along with the cases
cited above, the following list of documented examples shows a rather dubious
record of behavior by Somali refugees and their family members.
1. A 73-year-old Meals on Wheels volunteer was dropping off meals at a homeless
shelter in Shelburne, Vermont, when she was attacked by 32-year-old Somali
migrant Abukar Ibrahim with a machete in early January 2018. The woman
sustained multiple injuries including a severe wound to her leg.
2. Tnuza Jamal Hassan, 19, appeared at her
arraignment hearing in a makeshift burqa covering all but her eyes.
Tnuza
Jamal Hassan, a 19-year-old woman
from either Somalia or Ethiopia [Minneapolis police wouldn’t release her
status] was arraigned last month on charges of first-degree arson after she
allegedly set fires on the campus of St. Catherine University. Hassan told
police she “wanted the school to burn to the ground” and that her intent was to
“hurt people,” according to charges filed in Ramsey County District Court.
Hassan told police she had written a letter to her roommates containing
“radical ideas about supporting Muslims and bringing back the caliphate.” The
prosecution alleges “…She told the police and fire investigators ‘You guys are
lucky I don’t know how to build a bomb because I would have done that,’”
the Star-Tribune
reported.
3. On July 15, 2017, a Somali refugee serving as a Minneapolis
police officer, Mohamed Noor, shot and killed an unarmed woman, Justine Damond,
in her pajamas who had called 9-1-1 to report a rape taking place in the ally
near her apartment. The city’s police chief was forced to resign but no charges
have been filed against Noor, who had three previous complaints involving his
treatment of women while on patrol.
4. Crossroads Mall knife jihadist Dahir Adan was
killed by an off-duty cop before he could do more damage in St. Cloud.
Dahir
Ahmed Adan stabbed 10 shoppers at the Crossroads Mall in St. Cloud, Minnesota, on Sept.
17, 2016. The refugee asked shoppers if they were Muslim. If they said “no,” he
attacked them with his knife, until he was shot dead by an off-duty cop. Adan’s
brother was later jailed in North Dakota on drug charges.
5. In December 2016, Somali refugee Mohamed Ayanle, 22, was charged with
first- and third-degree criminal sexual conduct after he allegedly
raped a woman while riding a commercial bus through Polk County, Minnesota. The victim reported that
Mohamed Ayanle forced her to have sex with him at knife point in the back of
the bus. There was only one other passenger on the bus at the time, and after
he finished raping the woman, Ayanle told her to go back to the front of the
bus because she was “too fat.” Ayanle told police he had just arrived in
Minnesota from Somalia three months prior to his arrest and that, in his
opinion, the sex was consensual.
6. Davee Devose, a promising 21-year-old black student at
St. Cloud Technical and Community College, was stabbed to death at a house
party in June 2015 by then-16 year old Muhiyadin Mohamed Hassan, a Somali
refugee who violated his juvenile probation and has
since been moved to the adult system.
7. Somali refugee Aisha Ibrahim of Georgia
In
2008, the government revealed that thousands of Somali families had fraudulently entered
the U.S. as “refugees” by lying on their applications that they were related to
Somalis already living in the U.S. The Wall
Street Journal originally reported on how this fraud was uncovered by DNA tests, which led to
a four-year closure of the so-called P-3 family reunification program for
refugees coming from East Africa. The program was eventually restarted and none
of the thousands of Somalis proven to have entered the U.S. by these fraudulent
means were ever deported.
8. On the day after Memorial Day, May 31, 2016, in Lawrenceville, Georgia, a
Somali refugee woman, Aisha Ibrahim, 31, appeared out of the woods wearing a
burqa and beat an American woman with her own American flagpole. Ibrahim was
granted bail and did not show up for her arraignment in court — she remains in
the “missing” category to this day.
9. Christmas tree bomber Mohamed Mohamud
A
federal appeals court in December 2016 upheld the conviction of Mohamed Mohamud, the Somali
refugee sentenced to 30 years in prison for plotting to bomb downtown Portland
during the annual lighting of a Christmas tree. The truck bomb was a fake given
to him in 2010 by undercover FBI agents posing as terrorists. His lawyers
argued entrapment but the court ruled the government’s action fell short of any
due-process violation.
10. North Dakota mass killer Omar Mohamed Kalmio
In
2013 Somali
refugee Omar Mohamed Kalmio in North Dakota was sentenced to life in prison for the 2011
murder of a Native American family he had become involved with.
11. In November 2016, Abdul R. Ali Artan, an 18-year-old Somali refugee and student at
Ohio State University, wounded
11 people at OSU in a car and
knife attack. Minutes before his attack, Artan posted a message to his
Facebook page, a rant full of anger at the United States with references to
ISIS, but a Muslim friend told
NBC News he was shocked
because he believed Artan “loved America.”Abdul Ali Artan, the Somali knife-car
attacker, tried to kill fellow OSU students.
12. In April 2011, Somali refugee Said Biyad was sentenced to life in prison for
murdering his four children in Louisville, Kentucky. He avoided the death
penalty by taking a plea agreement.
13. In July
of last year, Abdinzak Ahmed Farah, 29, was arrested and
charged with threatening his fellow Minnesotans with a knife in downtown
Faribault. According to an eyewitness, Farah was eating raw beef with
the knife and holding it out to patrons, asking them to play games.
In a July
25 article, the Faribault Daily
News reports a complaint filed in Rice County Court alleges Farah was downtown
on July 12, pointing a knife and threatening to kill anyone who called police.
He was asked to leave the area, which he did, only to return pointing the same
knife at people as he spoke with them. Witnesses told police Farah was told to
leave a second time, but later began chasing several people and threw the knife
at them.
14. At least 40 Somali refugees have left the country to join overseas
terrorist organizations such as al-Shabaab in Somalia and ISIS in Syria, the
FBI has confirmed. Dozens of others have been charged and/or convicted of
providing material support to overseas terrorists.
15. Mohamed Hassan, a/k/a ‘Miski’, was a prolific
terror recruiter for ISIS and al-Shabaab.
One
of the top terror recruiters for ISISin the U.S. was Mohamed Hassan, a Somali refugee with roots in
Minnesota. He turned himself in to authorities in Somalia in late 2015, after
leading dozens of Somali-Americans to join ISIS. Through his Twitter persona,
Miski, he even played
a role in the terror
attack on a Muhammad cartoon contest in Garland, Texas, in which two Muslims
planned to kill everyone and behead First Amendment activist Pamela Geller.
16. Dozens of large-scale khat busts have taken place in recent years, such
as this
seizure of 69 pounds of khat at the Philadelphia airport bound for Minneapolis, and this
one sending nearly 20 pounds to Minneapolis. Khat is a stimulant chewed by Somali men.
17. In June 2016, residents of the Linden Hills community in
Minneapolis were terrorized by a gang of Somali youths for three straight days.
Up to 20 of them raided the waterfront community and scared women off the beach
by pretending to shoot them, ran their cars over residential lawns while
screaming “jihad,” threatened to rape a young woman and beat up one resident’s
dog. Police were called repeatedly but never seemed to be able to make it to
the neighborhood before the Somali mob disappeared. No arrests were made and
the Star Tribune ignored the story.
18. Minneapolis Police Department has for years tolerated an active
Sharia cop, who married a Somali
woman and patrols the Cedar Riverside area making sure Somalis are complying
with Islamic dress codes and other Sharia rules.
19. In 2014, a mysterious New Year’s Day
explosion occurred at a
building containing several apartments and a grocery store in the
heavily-Somali Cedar Riverside area of Minneapolis. According to a Freedom of
Information lawsuit
filed by Judicial Watch,
the city fire department requested the federal ATF not investigate the
explosion, which killed three people, and the investigation has never come to
an official conclusion on the cause.
20. Liban Haji Mohamed, a naturalized U.S. citizen born in Somalia
who came to the U.S. as a child refugee, was named to the FBI’s
list of Most Wanted Terrorists in January 2015. Mohamed, who worked as a cab driver in
northern Virginia, was charged with providing material support and resources to
al Qaeda and al-Shabaab, a Somali-based terrorist organization. “Al-Shabaab has
claimed responsibility for many bombings in Somalia and Uganda and the 2013
attack on the Westgate Mall in Nairobi, Kenya,” said Carl Ghattas, special agent
in charge of the Counterterrorism Division at the FBI’s Washington Field
Office. “Liban Mohamed is believed to have left the U.S. with the intent to
join al-Shabaab in East Africa.” Liban Haji Mohamed worked as a DC cab driver
while recruiting Somalis for terror.
21. In May 2015, a UK media outlet broke the story that one of the Islamic State’s major
recruiters turned out to be a female journalism student in Seattle who liked
football, cheeseburgers, and convincing women in Syria and the EU to wage
jihad. The student, a Somali named Rawdah Abdisalaam, who was known
under the Twitter handle @_UmmWaqqas, was discovered to be working
as a senior recruiter while living the good life in Seattle. The FBI was
apparently not aware of her operation until the UK story broke.
22. In January 2014, Somali refugee Ahmed Nasir Taalil, living in San Diego,
was sentenced
to six years in prison for
his part in a conspiracy to funnel money to the Somalia-based al-Qaida
affiliate, al-Shabaab. Among Nasir-Nasir’s co-conspirators were cab driver
Basaaly Saeed Moalin, who was sentenced to 18 years, Mohamed Mohamed Mohamud –
a Somali imam at a local mosque – sentenced to 13 years, and Issa Doreh, who
was sentenced to 10 years for working at a money transmitting business that
helped move the illegal funds.
23. America’s neighbor to the north, Canada, has also taken in Somali refugees,
though not in as great of numbers as the U.S., and has had its own set of
problems. In one case in fall of 2017, a Somali named Abdulahi Hasan Sharif
intentionally drove
a U-Haul truck into pedestrians, injuring four, including one man who suffered a fractured
skull.
Refugee proponents,
many of them working for resettlement agencies that receive government tax
dollars for every refugee they bring into the U.S., continue to say Somalis are
an asset to the communities in which they live. But those words ring hollow for
the growing list of victims of Somali violence.
Those Americans shot
or stabbed by Somali refugees, or raped by them, are seen by governing elites
as mere collateral damage for what equates to a human-trafficking operation
that brings billions of dollars into the coffers of resettlement agencies, and
a steady supply of cheap labor for meatpackers, hotels, cab companies and other
industries.
And now that the
refugee ban has expired, dozens of cities of all sizes can look forward to a
new influx of unvettable refugees from this perpetually war-torn country.
“The future fortunes
of this nation depend on our ability to open our eyes and ears, to speak truth
to lies and to prevail in the civilizational war of this age,” Tapio said.
Rogue Somali refugees
part 2: Bad cops and another murder
DeSean Daggs lost his life at a house party when he was shot and
killed by a Somali man who remains on the loose.
After we posted
yesterday’s article, “25
reasons to end Somali refugee resettlement now,” readers began sending
more examples of inexcusably bad behavior by Somalis who came to America at the
invitation of the U.S. government and were given every opportunity to succeed.
That’s why refugee status
is so coveted. You are automatically given legal status, a free education,
Medicaid healthcare, subsidized housing if you need it, and access to help from
a multiplicity of private and government sources. U.S. veterans and homeless
Americans should only be so lucky.
But the story Tuesday
listed more than 25 cases of violent crime, terrorist attacks, sexual assaults,
and fraudulent schemes, not to mention the more than 40 known cases of Somalis
leaving the U.S. to join foreign terrorist organizations.
One of the cases we didn’t
know about was that of young DeSean Daggs in Minnesota. Daggs, 23, of Eden
Prairie, was shot and killed on Jan. 7 of this year at a house party near the
University of Minnesota, while another 22-year-old man was shot and wounded at
the same party in the city’s Dinkytown section. The shooter was described by
police as a tall, 6-2, man with thin build “of Somali ethnicity and light
complexion,” the Star-Tribune
reported on Jan. 8.
Police found Daggs dead in
the front yard of the duplex and the second victim was being treated at
Hennepin County Medical Center. No arrests have been made. The Somali suspect
was wearing all black clothing and fled in an unspecified direction. He remains
at large.
“It is believed that both
individuals were shot by the same man wielding the same gun,”
police spokesman John Elder said. Investigators spoke with witnesses
and anybody who attended the party or was near the scene in an effort to
get a lead on the shooter’s identity and a motive. “I couldn’t
believe it, I just couldn’t believe it,” Daggs’ grandmother
DeSean Daggs was the
oldest of six children. His mother, Amber, said he enjoyed mixing music
and was computer savvy. He recently left school at Hennepin Technical
College to stay home and help take care of his paralyzed brother.
The life of
DeSean, or “Shawny Mac” as his family called him, was worth more than
all the guns and grudges in the world, his family says. “He was part of this
family, we loved him,” said Amber Daggs, speaking to whomever pulled the
trigger. “Why would you take him from us? Turn yourself in.”
What Daggs’ family likely
does not know, is their son’s murder was totally preventable. It happened
because of globalist politicians in Congress appropriating funding for fake
refugees under the guise of a false humanitarianism.
The U.S. Congress
appropriates about $2 billion a year for refugee resettlement, which brings to
American cities unnecessary crime, not to mention the added financial burden to
courts and jails, schools and hospitals.
Zahra Munye Abu, 24, is a Portland, Maine, police officer who
was hired to strengthen the department’s “diversity.” hire.
In yet another case, a
Portland, Maine, woman who came to the U.S. as a 2-year-old child refugee, grew
up to become that city’s first Somali-refugee police officer. Zahra Munye Abu,
now 24, got in hot water over an incident that took place last month during a
hip-hop concert in Worcester, Massachusetts. She was arraigned Jan. 25 on
charges of assault and battery, resisting arrest, trespassing, disorderly
conduct and disturbing the peace.
Abu pleaded not guilty and
remained mum during the court appearance, the Portland Press Herald reports. She was arrested at
a Ja Rule concert
at the Palladium after she allegedly grabbed the head of security by the front
of his shirt and refused to leave when asked to do so.
In a report filed in court, Worcester police said
the 5-foot-2, 130-pound female officer was acting unruly toward concert hall
staff and pushed her way through the crowd, “physically assaulting several
customers.” Told by security and police that her behavior was unacceptable and
she was “no longer welcome on the property,” Abu was asked to leave “two to
three dozen times,” according to the report.
Officer Christopher Grilli
wrote that after being told she was under arrest, Abu “tensed her body and
tried to pull away from us in an effort to evade arrest. She squirmed around
and tried to free herself from the handcuffs,” he wrote.
The report alleges that
Abu swore at police, questioned their training and time in service and “refused
to cease her profanity-laced comments toward staff.” Outside, as officers
waited for a patrol wagon to take Abu to police headquarters, she allegedly
moved toward another patron and said, “They’re racial profiling, I see you
there, girl,” according to court documents.
Abu gained widespread
media attention two years ago when she became the first member of Maine’s Somali
community to be sworn in as a police officer. Like the killer Somali cop
in Minneapolis, Mohamed Noor, Abu was a diversity hire. A notch on the belt of
a liberal Democrat city mayor.
Abu was born in Kenya,
where her Somali-born parents were living in a refugee camp, and moved to Maine
when she was 2 years old. She attended college and studied criminal justice and
women-and-gender issues at the University of Southern Maine before joining the
Portland Police Department in 2016.
Portland Police Chief
Michael Sauschuck said Officer Abu has been placed on paid administrative
leave pending
an internal review. Her next court hearing is March 12.
Justine Damond, left, was shot dead by Officer Mohamed Noor last
July after she called 9-1-1 to report a rape in progress near her apartment.
Abu’s arrest comes on the
heels of another case of a Somali refugee cop gone bad, only with far worse
consequences. In July last year 40-year-old Justine Damond, unarmed and dressed
in her nightgown, was gunned down by Somalia-born police officer Mohamed Noor
in Minneapolis. Damond was a native of Australia living in Minneapolis and engaged
to be married to a Minnesota man. But the rogue cop, who was a diversity hire
by Democrat Mayor Betsy Hodges, stole Damond from her fiancé and family.
After seven months of no
action, the county has decided to convene a grand jury to look into the case.
Hennepin County Attorney Mike Freeman has said he will still make the final
decision on whether to file charges against Noor.
