Fuad Shongole also says: “America is waging a war in the Horn of Africa because they are responsive to the Quran verses saying that the Islamic flag will fly in every corner of the world.” What? There are Qur’an verses saying that the Islamic flag will fly in every corner of the world? Ibrahim Hooper, call your office! Time to denounce Fuad Shongole as a hate-filled Islamophobe!
Seriously, Shongole probably has verses such as this one in mind: “And fight them until there is no fitnah and the religion, all of it, is for Allah.” (Qur’an 8:39)
“Somali Extremist Threatens US, Kenya With Attacks,” The Associated Press, May 22, 2014 9:23 AM ET
MOGADISHU, Somalia (AP) — Making a rare threat against the United States, a senior member of Somalia’s Islamic insurgent group that has carried out terrorist attacks abroad said Thursday that holy war will come to America and that Islam’s flag will one day fly over Washington.
The al-Shabab fighter, who has a $5 million U.S. bounty on his head, said in a speech broadcast on the rebels’ radio station that al-Shabab fighters would carry out jihad, or holy war, in Kenya and Uganda “and afterward, with God’s will, to America.”
“America is waging a war in the Horn of Africa because they are responsive to the Quran verses saying that the Islamic flag will fly in every corner of the world,” Fuad Mohamed Khalaf, also known as Fuad Shongole, said, referring to Islam’s holy book.
U.S. officials have long feared that any of the several dozen Somali-Americans who have left the U.S. to join the extremist fighters could travel back to the United States to carry out terror attacks. Senior al-Shabab leaders have rarely, if ever, publicly threatened to carry out attacks in the U.S….
The U.S. Treasury Department in 2010 imposed sanctions on Shongole, which froze any assets he had in U.S. jurisdictions. Shongole sought asylum in Sweden in the 1990s and has Swedish citizenship. He returned to Somalia in the mid-2000s to fight with the Islamic Courts Union, a militant group that preceded al-Shabab.
In his radio message, Shongole also threatened to launch more attacks in Kenya and Uganda. Both countries contribute troops to the African Union force waging war against al-Shabab inside Somalia.
“We swear by the almighty Allah that we’ll move the war into Kenya, so let’s see who suffers most,” said Shongole, who spoke before a noisy crowd of supporters. “If one Somali girl is killed by their soldiers in Somalia, we shall murder their girls at home.”

I thought Swedes were neutral in all conflicts; selling weapons to either side!

No more mass immigration into the West of Islamic jihad/Sharia supporters from Somalia. Such people are a death threat to us.

“Heavily armed and makeshift – inside Britain’s newest embassy in Somalia”
http://www.theguardian.com/public-leaders-network/2014/may/22/britain-newest-embassy-mogadishu-somalia?
What is the British government trying to do here?
– Setting up a bunker Embassy in Somalia, while not understanding the nature of the Islamic jihad threat there, and still allowing Islamic jihad sympathisers to get into Britain!
laura r says
ok mr naive tpello teach the british govt everything thry need to know.
mortimer says
Why does the world not see that 65% of Muslims are jihad-supporters? They say so in scientific surveys time after time.
There is no mystery to this: Muslims want a world-dictatorship-caliphate under discriminatory Sharia. The path to those is violent jihad. They are not unaware of jihad.
Jerry says
All Muslims are moderates.
Most are moderately explosive.
After they explode they usually become inert.
The only reliable way to make them inert
is through controlled explosions preferrably
in secluded areas where there is a lesser
risk of collateral damage.
Some are seeking means to become
hugely instead of moderately explosive.
The Obamination believes in providing
them with financial and military aid to
distract them from their attempts to
achieve that. They naturally are amazed
at how stupid is the Obamination.

These Clowns Just Lost Half Their Hell-Hole Country
Jaladhi says
And we are admitting Somali asylum seekers left and right. Only a matter of time when these Somali wage jihad in US soil!! Why allow the enemy to come here as a Trojan horse??
islamisdeath says
Gosh maybe we should import more of them and just get our slaughter over and done with.
Maybe Keith and Michelle can write a letter or send out a few tweets and straighten this guy out!
Notta_allah_followa says
America’s response? Import more Somalis! Let’s then pay them to sit around and crank out more and more babies, and if anyone objects, let’s call him a racist islamophobe! Sounds like a brilliant plan for survival America! If 9/11 wasn’t enough of a wake up call to the true nature of this death cult, then maybe we need a swifter kick to the groin. It may just take a major US city going up in a mushroom cloud before America comes home from the mall, turns their hats forward, and stops focusing on the latest Kardashian escapade. I have no confidence, however, that America can be woken up to this threat. We are rapidly approaching every man for himself. I can only hope that the next beneficiary of the peace and love that Islam brings with it isn’t my hometown.
Michael Carpenter says
President Obama has laid the ground work for the Somali fight by soliciting thousands of Somali Muslim immigrants, some of which are actively involved in Jihad outreach in other parts of the world. The Somali army is more than likely already in place.
laura r says
michael carpenter, most of the public would rather not know this. look@ most comments on these threads. they trust the govt & think its just a mistake. notta_allah- followa, who is “we”?? the public? what can the public do? i agree w/you, not very much.
Abdul Ameer says
“If one Somali girl is killed by their soldiers in Somalia, we shall murder their girls at home.”
This, too, comes from the Koran:
“Believers, retaliation is decreed for you in bloodshed: a free man for a free man, a slave for a slave, and a female for a female.” 2:178
John C. Barile says
Yes–but non-Muslims count for much less than Muslims do. So then, more infidels are wantonly killed to avenge the death of one Muslim.
