Minnesota: Jihad terror suspect gets driver’s license, wants to drive school buses

Aug 28, 2015 4:34 pm By Robert Spencer

amir-meshal

What could possibly go wrong, you greasy Islamophobe? “Terrorism Suspect Gets Driving License: Can Now Drive Large Trucks, Wants To Drive School Buses Next!,” by Jelani James, HNGN, August 28, 2015:

A terrorism suspect whose name appears on the “No Fly” list has been allegedly given a Class-A commercial driver’s license, which would allow him to drive semi-trucks that he can fill with whatever seemingly legal item he chooses.

Amir Meshal had been attempting to get his Class A license from a South St. Paul Truck Driving School in Minnesota. The $4,000 tuition was paid for through the state workforce program.

The Minnesota Department of Public Safety confirmed he earned his license on Aug. 8 after the road test, according to the Canada Free Press.

The Department of Homeland Security has regarded this man as a terrorist threat and has the evidence to back it up, according to Cain TV.

In May 2014, Meshal was allegedly removed from a Bloomington, Minn., mosque after he was suspected of radicalizing younger people who would later travel to Syria. According to a police report, leaders at the mosque said, “We have concerns about Meshal interacting with our youth.”

Meshal was asked to leave a mosque in Eden Prairie, Minn., for similar reasons.

Dating further back, in 2007 Meshal was arrested in Kenya by the FBI after he was believed to have attended a terror training camp in Somalia.

Meshal and the American Civil Liberties Union recently sued the U.S. government for detaining him for three months after he was arrested in Kenya. According to the lawsuit, the FBI had tried to convince him to become an informant.

The two also sued TSA and Homeland Security to have Meshal removed from the “No Fly” list, reported Fox Minnesota affiliate Fox 9. However, Homeland Security responded in a letter saying, “[Meshal] may be a threat to civil aviation or national security,” adding, “It has been determined that you [Amir Meshal] are an individual who represents a threat of engaging in or conducting a violent act of terrorism and who is operationally capable of doing so.”

As if this story didn’t raise enough red flags, a spokesman from the Minnesota Department of Public Safety also revealed that Meshal also wants to drive school buses!…

    Amir Meshal is not convicted of anything, only a suspect. Even still he is put on a no fly list, but what’s really concerning is that he was thrown out of mosques in Bloomington and Eden Prairie. This raises the question: did the Imams 86 Amir cuz what he was calling for is against Islamic Law, or cuz having him hang around quoting from the Holy Ko-Ran could hurt the standing of the mosques with the local authorities?

    It was good that the taxpayers funded his Class A truck driving license. If he crashes the little yellow school bus into a wall at 90 MPH to make it blow up and immolate a couple of dozen terrified crying 9-yr olds, at least he will have pulled it off at minimal danger to nearby vehicles, and the vector of the bus will be at 90 degrees to the plane of the wall, so as to maximize the impact. But I probably shouldn’t mention “plane” in the presence of a devout Moslem activist on the no fly list.

      Well let him only drive 9 year old Muslim children to and from their Muslim schools and mosques

      For attending a Muslim terrorist training camp, he should be stripped of his citizenship and deported to a Muslim country.

        Shane….Thanks for posting the smartest response to this story….HOW STUPID is our government? Why the hell hasn’t this douch bag been deported?

      “but what’s really concerning is that he was thrown out of mosques in Bloomington and Eden Prairie.”

      Fuck sake! The Eden Prairie mosque is named Masjid At-Tawba — named explicitly after the motherfucking Sura of the Sword (chapter 9 of the bloody Koran) — the explicit inspiration and game plan of all Muslims who want to destroy our society through a combination of stealth jihad and violent jihad. All Muslims are equally suspect. The sooner we wrap our heads around that, the sooner we will manage to save at least some of the million + Westerners whom Mohammedans will mass murder in the coming decades.

    Given a Class A truck driving license. Huh-uh.

    Query: Is this demonstrative more of madness or stupidity? I submit that reasonable minds (a declining commodity among those in charge of Western societies) can differ here.

      More evidence that Liberalism is a mental disease that makes its sufferers protect our enemies.

    RADICAL ISLAMIC CHIC so prevalent among the Muslim youth of America and other Western countries. They are infected by thuggish goons like this fellow.

    Police officers, school teachers and social workers see these radical youth but don’t RECOGNIZE the symptoms of JIHADISM because they have NOT LEARNED THE JIHAD DOCTRINE.

    Look for the CLIPPED JIHAD MOUSTACHE and full beard and supremacist swagger.

    School bus driver is not full time employment….an hour in the morning and an hour in the afternoon, and an occasional field trip somewhere// Around here school bus drivers are retired, or housewives looking for extra cash…A driver hauling goods can male a decent living…Maybe he just likes children…Maybe…

      Those hours work out great for him because it will not interfere with his other job at a munitions factory.

      ANY one that believes he is doing this for because he loves kids needs to loosen their hat band,looks like it is too tight and restricting blood flow to the brain

    I drove a school bus in a Texas school district. For long stretches of time, depending on the route and number of stops to make, the driver is the only adult the kids have to listen to. This driving a truck with chemicals or other hazardous materials would be enough of a danger to the public. When in control of the kids, he could indoctrinate daily.

    But, with kids on the bus, he could cause terror of another kind He could just drive them someplace off the map and not respond to the radio calls as to location, etc.

    Besides that, when I drove, it was made known to me and the other drivers that if there was a calamity of some kind…tornado, flooding, bombing, etc….we would be responsible for driving the buses to ferry people out of the area, or emergency personnel into an area.

    Bad idea all around.

  7. Michael Copeland says

    Aug 28, 2015 at 6:03 pm

    Perhaps there is a lack of joined-up government. There is a case for linking the No-Fly category to a No-School-Bus-Driver category. It quite probably has not been thought of.

  8. Voytek Gagalka says

    Aug 28, 2015 at 6:43 pm

    “What could possibly go wrong?” Well, let me guess. That he, while driving it, could use that said school bus as a tool for execution of some sinister plan perpetrated for the glory of his false prophet and the moon-god? No? He, and all his clan members and apologists can call me “islamophobe” but neither I nor my children would ever enter such a bus while he would be designated driver.

    WHY is he still in the United States?

    He needs to be deported ASAP.

    • Shmooviyet says

      Aug 28, 2015 at 7:28 pm

      He is safe and sound here in the land of 10,000 halal grocers. He’s not going anywhere soon.

    why would somebody who hates the west and the us that much want to live in a christian country amongst people he hates ,why is he using are laws to abuse and subvert are democrasy,what is his agenda i ask,what is the agenda of isis i ask, i need say no more.

    • Charli Main says

      Aug 29, 2015 at 5:25 am

      The reason that he and people like him are living in Christian countries among people that they hate is simple—– it is their religious duty to turn these Christian countries into Muslim countries. They are commanded in the Koran, to introduce Islam and Sharia Law into ALL non Muslim lands. Mohammed and his alter ego ” Allah” demand this of all Muslims.
      Muslims don´t immigrate because they are looking for a better life for themselves. They immigrate to take over the host country and turn it into a copy of the Muslim shyte hole they ran away from.

  11. Alice says

    Aug 28, 2015 at 10:37 pm

    In that case. I’d drive my child to school.
    Imagine the music and propaganda he could play, the implementation of sharia punishments, the last kid alone with him on the bus…

      In NYC Muslim taxi drivers have been known to park their cabs and climb up on the hoods of their car to pray because Islam is not about a god but all about display.
      How they love to show us their asses.

    Seriously, wtf is wrong with Minnesota? I have family there and now I am getting really concerned about their welfare and safety. You cannot open your arms to radicals. They are simply going to kill you folks. What part of vetting and investigating a suspected terrorist don’t you people get?

    “Terrorism Suspect Gets Driving License: Can Now Drive Large Trucks, Wants To Drive School Buses Next!,”

    Well of course he does; as many a brother and sister before him know, they make wonderful Allah-granted opportunities for delivering Allah’s painful punishment.

    And the foolish Allah-blinded infidels are clueless …

  14. dlbrand says

    Aug 29, 2015 at 1:04 am

    “The Department of Homeland Security has regarded this man as a terrorist threat and has the evidence to back it up.”

    Not to worry, I’m sure the children can handle him… reason our ” best and brightest.”

    I cant believe what I just read how stupid are we getting

    when this guys kills a bus load of kids no if but when if he gets to drive a school bus

    Obama will call it a work related accident any parent that would let there kid

    future we need trump elected he will put a stop to bringing all these possible

    Aug 29, 2015 at 3:12 am

    I’d take one look at this guy, scream, pull my kids off the bus at high speed,
    All the info should go to all the other mums ..
    then harass the school authorities, the bus company & the local politicians, till they get sick of me and do something..

    This is going to be a huge issue as the Muslim stealth slowly diggs it’s claws into our society ..

    Aug 29, 2015 at 12:15 pm

    And just to think how shocked people were when that sicko up in CT killed a bunch sf youngsters ..sometime back…..and NOW they want this POS to drive kids to whatever destinsation??

    Here’s the question to one and all “WOULD YOU WANT YOUR KIDS OR GRANDKIDS RIDING ON THIS GUYS BUS?

  20. Mirren10 says

    Aug 30, 2015 at 6:12 am

    ”Amir Meshal, a school bus driver, drove the school bus containing forty schoolchildren into a tree. Witnesses say he was heard shouting ‘allahu ackbar’ at the scene. Police are searching for a motive for Meshal’s action.

    A spokesman from the Minnesota Department of Public Safety, said; however tragic this event, it would be more tragic if we allowed it to harm our diversity.”

    Or words to that effect.

  21. Jeff says

    Some school district will hire this scum bag, claiming they have no choice because his ALCU or CAIR lawyer threatened them with a multi-million dollar lawsuit. THEN, he will be driving YOUR kids around, and if you complain, you will be called a racist and an islamaphobic SOB, and it will be YOU that is labeled ZND sued for defamation. Just watch. AFTER a bus blows up, or is driven off a cliff, all of those responsible will be NOWHERE TO BE FOUND!

  22. DAVE DE LA ROND says

    Aug 30, 2015 at 11:31 pm

    If Obama have such a love affair with all these muslim Scumbags why doest he have this Scumbag take his children to school and drive his wife to weight watchers.
