This is a further update on the case of the 270 Somali illegal aliens who have come into the US across the Mexican border (the 270 we know of!). Hat tip: Janet See the affidavit and Schlussel’s commentary here. Schlussel makes these important points in her introduction to the post:
Anthony Joseph Tracy a/k/a Yusuf Tracy a/k/a Yusuf Noor (strangely none of the press reports use his Muslim names–why?) sold out America, after converting to Islam in prison in the 1990s. Then, he went to Somalia, made contact with Harakat Al-Shabaab Mujahideen a/k/a Al-Shabaab, the Somalian chapter of Al Qaeda, and helped the group smuggle in 270 Somali Muslims–likely all Islamic terrorists–into America. And I’m sure he isn’t the only one doing this. Just the only we’ve caught.
Once again I will remind new readers that the US State Department is beefing up the Somali refugee numbers for this fiscal year. 6000 who could not get along with other camp inhabitants are on the way from Uganda and inside sources indicate that as many as a total of 13,000 Somalis are in the pipeline from around the world. We even bring illegal alien Somalis that arrive in Malta to the US (Update: I see more are on the way from Malta just today, here)
If you work with Somalis or have any interaction with them and learn of some mysterious new arrival(s) (the 270 possible al-Shabaab jihadists have surely melted into cities with large Somali populations*), you must contact authorities.
*Of course the top of the list is Minneapolis. But, other cities with large Somali populations include: Seattle, WA, San Diego, CA, Phoenix, AZ, Lewiston and Portland, ME, Boston, MA, Columbus, OH, Rochester, MN, Atlanta, GA, Nashville, TN, Greeley and Ft. Morgan, CO, Grand Island, NE, and Kansas City, MO (those are just the ones off the top of my head!).
For new readers:
For information on Somali missing youths, American citizens who have gone to Somalia to learn the Jihad trade, some leaving through Mexico, use those search words. We have written dozens of stories on the case. For more on Al-shabaab (sometimes spelled Al-shabab) also use our search function.
The US State Department has admitted over 80,000 Somali refugees to the US (this linked post continues to be one of the most widely read posts we have ever written) in the last 25 years and then in 2008 had to suspend family reunification because widespread immigration fraud was revealed through DNA testing. That specific program has not yet been reopened (that we know of), but will be soon.
Nevertheless, thousands of Somali Muslims continue to be resettled as I write this. We recently learned that we will be taking 6000 Somalis this year from one camp in Uganda and as many as 11,000-13,000 total from around the world.
