Evidence is piling up that one of Westgate killers was Somali refugee from Norway

We’ve been patiently waiting to learn if any of America’s contributions to al-Shabaab (aka al-Shabab) have been identified as among those responsible for the Kenyan mall massacre nearly a month ago.

One of the Westgate Somali killers caught on surveillance camera looking for his next victim.

Here is the latest report on the Norwegian citizen/Somali refugee believed to have been involved.  From the BBC (hat tip: Ed). Emphasis is mine:

The man being investigated by Norwegian police over the attack on Kenya’s Westgate shopping centre is Hassan Abdi Dhuhulow, BBC Newsnight has learned.

The 23-year-old Norwegian citizen of Somali origin is suspected of helping to plan and carry out the attack.

BBC Newsnight has spoken to a relative of his in Norway who said he left the town of Larvik for Somalia in 2009.

At least 67 people died in the attack in Nairobi, which the al-Qaeda linked group al-Shabab says it carried out.

Last week Norway’s intelligence agency, the PST, said it had sent officers to Kenya to verify reports that a Norwegian citizen had been involved in the assault on the shopping centre, which began on Saturday 21 September and lasted four days.

He grew up in Norway!

Dhuhulow was born in Somalia, but he and his family moved to Norway as refugees in 1999.

There is a lot of mumbo-jumbo in the story along the lines of disenfranchised youths (dumb and naive), but nothing in the text about the Islamic Jihad imperative that is really driving crime of this horrific nature worldwide.  However, watch the BBC film and note that a neighbor says he was talking about the Koran all the time.

And, I’ve been wondering what the heck is taking so long to ID any bodies that might have been the attackers.  The BBC tells us this:

Forensic investigators are still combing through the rubble of Westgate – no bodies have yet been identified and it is not known whether the attackers are alive or dead.

Boxes of body parts sent to Kenyan morgue!

In a related story just this morning, foreign forensic teams have arrived at a Nairobi mortuary to attempt to identify the remains of what some believe are the killers.

From AP at Fox News:

NAIROBI, Kenya –  Officials in Kenya say two boxes of charred body parts have been delivered to the city morgue from Westgate Mall and that four AK-47 assault rifles were found alongside the remains. Gunmen stormed the mall on Sept. 21, killing more than 60 people.

A city morgue official told The Associated Press that the two boxes arrived Thursday, and that a team of foreigners padlocked the boxes Friday.

Amazingly, several of these reports are now referring to only 4 men having pulled off this slaughter.  Surely these four were not the brains of the operation.

Just wondering if they let Anders Breivik in on this latest news?
