“Adam Aded thought he’d done all he could to steer his son away from government scrutiny and from the lure of overseas extremists.” So he was trying to shield his son from government scrutiny — why? If he had nothing to hide, what was the problem?
“Forget about us harboring a terrorist in our home, they are the ones that terrorized us. They really caused a lot of problems and damaged the house.” Notice the by-now drearily familiar deflection tactic, the attempt to shift focus away from jihad terrorism and onto Muslims as victims. “”Forget about us harboring a terrorist in our home”? How can we?
“Minneapolis family questions FBI tactics after home raid,” by Mukhtar Ibrahim, MPR News, December 17, 2015 (thanks to A.M.H.):
Adam Aded thought he’d done all he could to steer his son away from government scrutiny and from the lure of overseas extremists. Then an FBI SWAT team broke down his doors.
Agents came Friday morning, descending on his Minneapolis home to arrest his son, Khaalid Adam Abdulkadir, for allegedly threatening the FBI on Twitter.
Abdulkadir remains in custody and his case will now go to a grand jury for review. At a court hearing Wednesday, Abdulkadir’s attorney raised questions about whether he typed the tweets and who he was specifically targeting.
Whatever happens in Abdulkadir’s case, it’s already left his family shaken.
Sitting on his couch Tuesday evening, Aded criticized how the SWAT team conducted its arrest and also detailed the FBI’s interest in his son.
“Forget about us harboring a terrorist in our home, they are the ones that terrorized us,” Aded said. “They really caused a lot of problems and damaged the house.”
Aded said more than 30 law enforcement personnel came to the house, forcibly broke the doors and threw a smoke grenade inside the home. The smoke grenade left a dark burn on the house’s carpet, he said, adding that he spent about $500 to fix the back and front doors.
When the SWAT team came, Aded said they handcuffed all the occupants in the house except for his 2-year-old son. The child, who has asthma, has been vomiting because of the smoke and hasn’t been sleeping well since Friday, he added.
Minneapolis FBI spokesperson Kyle Loven said they used the SWAT team because they “considered the arrest of Mr. Abdulkadir to be potentially volatile.”
“This arrest was carried out with precision and with overwhelming force in an attempt to make certain that no parties were injured during the apprehension,” Loven said. “It’s not an uncommon practice to make certain that the scene is secure, and often times that is done through the momentary detention of those occupants inside the home.”
Abdi Farah, Abdulkadir’s uncle who works a night shift, came home around 6:30 a.m., two hours before law enforcement personnel arrived at the house. He was half asleep when heard loud bangs on the door and the cries of his 2-year-old nephew. He, Abdulkadir and four others were handcuffed and their fingerprints were taken, Farah said.
Farah, who was wearing only boxer shorts when the SWAT team came, said the agents weren’t interested in being respectful. He said they told him to shut up when he asked if he could put on some clothes and that one agent took the 2-year-old from him while another knocked him to the ground.
“They didn’t say, ‘Hey, we’re looking for this guy. Do you know him?’ None of that. It’s like, Boom! Boom! Boom! Gun on your forehead,” he recalled. “How do you feel if someone put a gun on your head? I feel like they mistreat us, like we were not even American citizens. We were all roughed up like we were in a Chicago gang.”
Loven denied that the FBI SWAT team put guns to the heads of Farah and his nephews.
Since May, the FBI has interviewed Abdulkadir at least twice and interacted with Abdulkadir’s father on the phone several times. Abdulkadir was friends with the men arrested earlier this year on ISIS-related charges because they were born in the Twin Cities and went to the same school.
Aded said the FBI came to his son’s school in Minneapolis in early May, looking for Abdulkadir. The FBI said Abdulkadir was attempting to travel to Syria, an allegation that the father denied….
“You’re a good family that’s working with us and who’s aware of what their son is doing,” Aded said the FBI told him.
“We know our son and he isn’t involved in anything illegal, but don’t screw him up,” Aded recalled telling the FBI….
“He hasn’t done anything that will cause instability in this country,” he said. “This is his country.”

Another whinging Muslim playing the Muslim´s favourite role—- the poor persecuted and long suffering victim.

At least some agents have not surrendered to Hussein-The-Muslim.
San Bernardino’s potentially huge scale of slaughter — if Farook and Malik had not been stopped early — might have been the tipping point for anger in the FBI.

Is that a double zebiba? Don’t trust that guy, no matter what.

“Forget about us harboring a terrorist in our home … ”
How absolutely *typical* of a mohammedan !
Indeed, harbouring a terrorist pales in significance beside the damage to his carpet ! What a piece of scum.

I’ve lived in Minnesota for over five decades. Don’t let this man’s whining fool you. It’s a great state that’s kind to muslims, that’s why they come here. We’re “Minnesota nice,” we don’t discriminate here. So if the FBI is on these folks I trust it’s for a darn good reason. I commend our law enforcement. It must be hard to do your job with one hand tied behind your Obama back. No more punishing true Americans who love our values and culture. Target those we know have bad affiliations, like muslims that frequent mosques and talk their Jihad trash against our nation. I want our law enforcement to start kicking butt. I’m disgusted beyond freaking words that true Americans must pay with their freedom for this bigoted pagan cult. No more kowtowing to ignorance and religious hate. I stand in defense of our values, our culture, our freedoms. To hell with Islam.
Islam :- the religion of con artists says
If this wasn’t real it would be a comedy show, “the mean SWAT man was rude to me,,, he could have knocked on the door and said please”
The FBI don’t pull together a swat team and go onsite for fun you know, there must have serious evidence and I for 1 are happy they are protecting us ..
Andrew H. says
It is comforting to read that SWAT teams earn their keep. I shudder over the expense of rounding up all suspect Muslims and sending the off to the homes of their ancestors in the Middle East, Africa and Asia but it will have to be done. America needs to be cleansed and made safe again.

Farah, who was wearing only boxer shorts when the SWAT team came, said the agents weren’t interested in being respectful.

Yea, I didn’t know that being respectful was supposed to be part of their training and operations. These guys (SWAT) lives are on the line and they want to go home too. I don’t blame them one bit.
Funny how I can feel safer in a building with 1,000 law enforcement officers than I can in the same building (empty) with only one follower of Islam in it.
The numbers speak for themselves.
Our law enforcement does does the best job it can with all the constraints that are put on them, and that is a pretty hard job to do.

This is how police in every country on earth do business, when arresting possible armed and dangerous criminals. Muslims are not victims in this case, but are dangerous criminals.
gea says
If he does not like it is America he is free to go back from wherever he came from. He should also take all his relatives and disappear, as should all 3 millions of other Muslims who still consider a pedophile, polygamist, rapist, misogynist, looter, slaver and mass Murderer Mohamed as a proper role model.
As Dr. Wafa Sultan, and Ex-Muslim psychiatrist originally from Syria said that anybody who knows about life of Mohamed and approves of it is mentally sick., ans should be considered a potential terrorist…
Oliver says
Gea, I agree- and the Muslims should take their multi-culturist pc liberturd suppoters with them.
A cleaner and safer America for peace loving people.
Mike Holt says
Awwwww….poor liddle moslem….terrorized again by those naughty white men.
Oliver says
I am a white male; born in the US. (Not Muslim). I am 6’3″, weighed at the time, 170 (now a bit heavier)-scawny best describes me.
I WAS STOPPED-AT RIFLE ( OR WAS IT SHOTGUNS) POINT. (2 of them).
I DID NOT –THEN OR NOW-BLAME THE POLICE. THEY THOUGHT I was doing somethign wrong (I was looking for an all nigth coffee shop-in a tiny town, where all closes by sundown); car had wrong plates (owner’s stepson accidently put plates-for two cars-on the worng cars).
Explained the situation; they looked at the registration; gave me directions to an all nigth coffee shop. (It was about 11 PM). (The car’s owner was with me-but I was driving).
I DID NOT BLAME THE POLICE. THEY WERE PROTECTING THEIR PEOPLE.
I despise it when people blame the police-for trying to do their job. Especially when the target group is one known for violence and/or crime.
Matthieu Baudin says
Always the victims. Never any sense of social responsibility outside the narrow community of Islam.
