Unlike the roughly two dozen Minnesota men who federal authorities say traveled to fight alongside Islamic insurgents in Somalia since 2007, Muhumed and his Twin Cities peers enlisted to fight in a place to which they have no family or ethnic connection.<\/p>\n

The sudden shift to radicalism by Muhumed, whom friends know as Abdifatah Afweyne, was “very unpredictable,” said Abdinasir Mohamed.<\/p>\n

Mohamed was shocked when he saw Muhumed’s photos on Facebook, in which he is carrying guns and wearing military uniforms.<\/p>\n

“It was really hard for me to believe because the guy seemed he was busy with his own life, trying to make it,” said Mohamed, who described his friend as humble. “And [for] him to leave his family and kids, and just go to the other side of the world, that was really surprising to me. I’ve not really expected him to do that type of move.”<\/p><\/blockquote>\n

The article goes on to say that youngsters who are making the trip to the Middle East don’t have the money to buy a bus ticket to Chicago, let alone get half-way around the world. I say we let the ingrates go and get themselves killed in the most brutal way possible. <\/p>\n

FBI investigators aim to discover who is recruiting the Minnesota men, said Kyle Loven, an FBI spokesman in Minneapolis.<\/p><\/blockquote>\n

I think we should be taking up collections for the little crybabies to go. Their families brought them here to get them away from the violence, but they don’t seem to appreciate the relatively peaceful life they have in the US. Better that they blow up over there than here.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
