The question of the jihad attacker’s identity seems to be solved now. Also, Columbus Police Chief Kim Jacobs was refreshingly honest, saying: “I think we have to consider that it is” a terror attack.
“Attack at Ohio State campus: 9 injured, suspect killed by police,” 10TV, November 28, 2016 (thanks to Pamela Geller):
CBS News is reporting that the suspect is a 20-year-old Somali man.
The vehicle involved in the incident is registered to Mohammad Ali from Columbus.
“Ohio State attacker identified as Somali refugee, OSU student,” KARE11.com, November 28, 2016 (thanks to Pamela Geller):
The Associated Press reports a police chief says authorities are looking into whether the attack at Ohio State University was related to terrorism.
Columbus Police Chief Kim Jacobs was asked at a news conference Monday afternoon whether authorities were considering the possibility that it was a terror attack.
Jacobs says, “I think we have to consider that it is.”
Authorities say a man purposely plowed his car over a curb and into pedestrians on Monday morning before jumping out of the car and attacking people with a butcher knife. A police officer who was nearby because of an earlier gas leak was on the scene in a minute and shot and killed the attacker.
The FBI and other agencies joined the investigation.
Authorities say nine people were hurt, one of them critically.
2:55 p.m.:
NBC News has identified the suspect as 18-year-old Abdul Razak Ali Artan. According to NBC, Artan was a Somali refugee and Ohio State student who left his homeland with his family in 2007. They lived in Pakistan before coming to the U.S., where Artan became a permanent resident in 2014….

USA funds pakistan and pakistan funds to trainJihadis for the world destruction.When USA leaders will stop funding Pakistan for. Jihad.
Custos Custodum says
Note they artfully omit the year when Artan came to the U.S., but he was almost certainly imported from Pakistan – a safe third country – during the reign of fellow Muslim Barry Hussein Obama and then given a green card. Normal scrutiny was likely disabled under the unlawful Obama dispensation.
A Harris USA says
Custos, Obama loves his fellow Muslims, and hates the rest of us!! He let these savages into the country. He knew damn well they would come here and cause this kind of horror..
Let me remind all of you on “giving Tuesday”, with hold ANY funds from such church groups that are enabling the savages to live here. Collect public and PRIVATE funds, and demand we live according to their rules.. Lutheran, Catholic, and other charities are bowing to these savages, thus enabling them to live here, then KILL US… May I strongly suggest, Military charities, and veterans charities. Even animal charities are a far better choice than those who help those who come here, take advantage of us, then ultimately KILL US!!
Tradiguy says
Send all contributions to Alex Jones so he can keep the truth coming! He is a national hero!

Ditto, sahani, for the UK!!
Shmooviyet says
Travelled to Pakistan from Somalia before coming to US.
“Refugee”?
Tradiguy says
Refugee be buggered!
Isahiah62 says
so did Obomba , and Pakistan was the same nation who harbored/protected Osama, we need to make sure that people who leave USA to learn JIHAD do not get back in..
we need much more thorough vetting or BAN UNTIL THEY SHUT DOWN THREATS….
we need ZERO Somaiis, people who never known other than chaos and war , uneducated except in hate and death, with LESS THAN NOTHING to contribute to OUR country….
It’s why many of us voted for TRUMP..NO MORE BAD SKITTLES
Oliver says
And what happened when P. E. Trump ( then Candidate Trump) said Minn. is breeding grounds for ISIS terrorists in the Somali community? (wording somewhat different).
Gov. Dayton of Minn. ( and the lame stream media and liberturds) jumped all over Mr. Trump.
Send them back to Somalia.
What the hell have Somalis AT ANY TIME- EVER CONTRIBUTED TO CIVILIZATION? I cannot think of anything.
(By the way, a few months ago, it was – reported? leaked? not sure which- The IDF was training the Somalia army how to track and neutralize terrorists. (Lost the link, but I found it interesting- possibly because of the terrorists who killed the people in the Kenya Mall- who were jews- seeking retribution) ( my guess).
A Harris USA says
He is not in office until Jan 20th, which can not come soon enough!!! Believe me some of the people he is putting in place will act, as soon as he puts his hand on the Bible, yes, Bible, NOT KORAN!!!
Tradiguy says
You need ZERO muslims! There will never be peace whilst you have this scummy shite in your country. They are devils. Even the passive ones want us dead or at the very least have us dominated by Islam. I wish I was an American- at least I could get a firearm and protect myself and family!!
gravenimage says
Yeah–what refugee from Somalia travels to Pakistan?
Custos Custodum says
Both Muslim, both former British colonies (partial in the case of Somalia).
sahani says
USA need to study the eating habits of all muslims. Why muslim hate others.
Its said You are what you eat.
Looks like HALAL meat has some thing to do with the mind change and hate feelings.
HALAL meat means animal goes through a torcher and sees own blood flowing in front of his/ her own eyes before they die .
Martha C. says
Def makes you wonder. All of the hormones, etc. released when killed in pain. Sickening ‘religion’.
Leon Kushner says
Sahani, you might be on to something!
Tradiguy says
Halal is completely cruel. They let those cruel bastards get away with the way they kill animals- where are the animal rights freaks now?? Oh, I see, don’t want to get involved eh!
Diane Harvey says
“The suspect’s name was not released, but law enforcement officials told NBC News he was an 18-year-old Ohio State student, a Somali refugee who,”
probably had a name like,
Abdul, Abdullah, Abdulaziz, Abdulkarim, Abdurrahim, Abdurrahman, Abdussalam, Abdulqadir,
or perhaps,
Moohammed, Mahmad, Mehmed, Mahamed, Mohamad, Mohamed, Mohammad, Mohammed, Muhamad, Muhamed, Muhamet, Muhammed, Muhammet, Mahammud , Mehmet, Mohd, Muh, Mohamed, Mahamid,
or Bruce.
The Bruce one would have allowed the cops to figure out a motive.
Police reported that each of the other names are likely dead ends. “Our experience shows that’s usually a waste of time to follow up on those sorts of names,” Police Commissioner Fearless Fosdick replied.
Cecilia Ellis says
Diane, absolutely hilarious!
somehistory says
I think Fearless Fosdick would have been smart enough to say the moslim guy with the moslim name committed an act of terrorism. That was a different day and time.
At least, this Police Chief has not shied away from saying terrorism.
gravenimage says
Yup–Abdul Artan.
You are right–you can mostly guess what these Mohammedans are going to go by…
Jerry says
Stop all the Islamophobia:
It was not an act of Islamic Jihaddi terrorism but an act of god!
Didn’t you hear him scream Allahu Akhbar?
It must have all been about the occupation!
What occupation?
The occupation of the Khaybar by Mohammad and his
murderous thieving and raping gang about 1400 years ag.
That conduct never ever stopped and it is taught encouraged
and incited from each and every mosque!
It’s about time to stop imagining that it is about the Jews building
a few apartments in East Jerusalem.
It is about the Islamic genocidal agenda against all non-Muslims
wherever they are.
Jerry says
Refugees welcome!
Kaboom!!!

The worms crawl in! — The worms crawl out! — The worms play pinochle on your snout! — They call their FREINDS and THEIR FRIENDS’ FRIENDS too — and you look like HELL when they are through with you!!!
isabella van der westhuizen says
Well America Why do you allow some one like this to get the treasured permanent residence status
You would be better off taking in Christian refugees from ISIS
John C. Barile says
Because of the pro-Islamist and anti-Christian biases of Mr. Obama and his administration, that’s why.
Budvarakbar says
Do not forget the damn Bushes and Klintoons before him — the friggin’ rotten filthy Klintoons were importing Somalis before the blood was dried on their Black Hawk Down BETRAYAL!!!
Carolyne says
Let’s just say it as it is. Baraq Hussein Obama is a Muslim, born a Muslim, bred as a Muslim, registered in school as a Muslim by his Muslim Indonesian father. He has said “History does not belong to those who slander the prophet of Islam.” Also, “If the winds should become ugly, I will stand with the Muslims.” Why not? He is one of them. His wife said, “When we went to Kenya, Barry’s home country……” What more proof does a reasonable person need?
quota raven says
To Isabella – Why? for heaven’s sake, my dear, why do you think we voted in a totally renegade wild man for president the way we did the other day? Not to mention vast wins, governors, et al, that ousted many inbreds and scoundrels (and I’m sure elected a few!)))
We Americans are sick and tired of having this massive importation of people who, if they don’t actively seek to bomb and destroy and terrorize our country and Western culture – and a significant number DO just that – will drain its resources through our government’s largesse and nurturing of the migrants’ sense of entitlement to schools, medical care, free housing and food…give me a break, Isabella! We can’t STAND what has been going on, which you’d know if you’ve been reading JW for a while.
The frustration has been for the past eight years unreal, unbearable. This administration let free more felons and hastened the return of Guantanamo prisoners back to their rightful role as jihadis, traded that bum who deserted for some high target terrorist boss jihadis… Our politicians, both dems and repubs, are mostly crooks or cheats and liars, and they do things, pass laws that make us, who are even aware of them, gasp.
I don’t know where you live, Isabella, but are your elected politicians and bureaucrats any better? Are you happy with the immigration policies of your country? Goodness. Where would that be?
I’m hoping we have seriously ushered in some change. Actually, I’m,holding my breath, and cautiously optimistic.
Cheers!

Quota. Right on.
One of the three recount states recertified Mr
Trump. Question
If Stein. Is so concerned. Fair election. How come no states Clinton narrowly won. Another Soros appenchick
Stan Lee says
If one man in the U.S. government would be asked if Artan was a troubled refugee, it would be outgoing(01/20/2017) President Barack Obama. This man has never seen nor heard of one Muslim he wouldn’t rush to immediately import to the U.S.A.
Yesterday, news radio reported that Australia had blocked the entrance of 1800 Muslims. Obama volunteered that they would be welcome in the U.S.A! Obama’s Democrat Party recently lost the most recent presidential election, in which that party was backing Hillary Clinton, who had served the Obama administration as a much neglectful Secretary of State.
The Democrat Party policies, especially on admitting Muslim “refugees” whose records cannot be verified (usually a reason to not admit to country) is so socialistic and gambles the lives and security of ordinary Americans via reckless importation of Muslims, as if it was of not a necessary requirement.
Only today, a car driven by a lone man was driven into pedestrians walking on a sidewalk in Columbus, Ohio. The car’s driver jumped out of the car, armed with a knife, attacking, stabbing, nine people. Police shot and killed that attacker, the victims are all in hospital.one in Intensive Care.
The attacker was a 20 year old man, originally from Somalia, via Pakistan.
ElderlyZionist says
On February 12, 2016, another Somali-American named Mohammed Berry attacked customers in the Nazareth restaurant in Columbus, Ohio with a machete. There’s a colony of Somalis in Columbus, some came 10 years ago and once they were established, brought their families, friends, acquaintances, friends of friends, etc. I hope Columbus law enforcement knows they have a problem, and are keeping an eye on this population.
dumbledoresarmy says
I hope law enforcement are quietly at work to find out what *mosque* this mohammedan car-and-machete jihadist would-be mass murderer – and his *family*… and the bloke (Mohammed Ali) whose *car* he used … attended. And preparing to conduct a surprise-raid-and-search of said mosque and all associated premises and businesses.
gravenimage says
Thanks for reminding us of that case, ElderlyZionist. The brave staff there tackled the Jihadist and neutralized him before he could hurt anyone!
ElderlyZionist says
Actually, I think several people were injured in the Nazareth Restaurant attack, although not very seriously. Columbus, Ohio is a near-neighbor city to me. I have friends there who work with recent Somali immigrants; many Somalis have found semi-skilled work in warehouses and distribution centers. The colony is growing as more frequently arrive. My friends tell me that the Somalis in Columbus are generally diligent and sober workers, but are demanding, thin skinned, easily offended, quickly angered, violent, clannish, keep to themselves, aren’t interesting in integrating or even mingling much with American infidels. Got Muslims? Got problems.
Angemon says
Indeed.
A lucky coincidence avoided what could have become a bloodbath. Luck and coincidences won’t last forever…
Oliver says
At least the second time that a nearby cop prevented a disaster- recall the pakistani (lived in Conn., I beleive) who some years ago (before De Blasio) tried to blow up a car in Times Square? (A civilian saw something suspicious, and saw a policeman right near by- and prevented a bloodbath).
These slime have to go.

I wish to send my prayers and condolences to all the families directly affected by this cowardly dirtbag. Islam is a plague on the earth just like Nazism was- it needs purging from the planet. It has no graces and cannot protect its adherants from being infested by devils- ‘ the devil wandering through the world for the ruin of souls’ America, you need to cut this cancer out and so does every right thinking person worldwide.
Undaunted says
Alan Horujko is the OSU cop who shot and killed Artan. Horujko acted quickly and decisively and ended the threat properly.
Look, though, at the number of police on-scene after the shooting. Listen to the tape of officials as they explain how they had cops from all over that part of the country self-deploying to OSU in response to the attack.
What most of you don’t know is that there are far too few Alan Horujko’s in the world today and way too many cops named Whitney who carry teddy bears in their patrol cars instead of extra hi-cap magazines. This event ended rather nicely, with the bad-guy sprawled out in the dirt, perhaps twitchin’ here and there as he saw the demons arriving to drag him to hell. But you don’t know if the situation you’ll be involved in, like this one or so much more deadly, will end better… or worse. You don’t know. And you’re counting on the Alan Horujko’s out there to save your asses because you don’t and won’t act to protect yourselves and those you say you love.
There will me many more attacks in the USA like the one Artan committed. And there will be worse ones, certainly. And most of you will just stand there and think, “Wow, I sure hope the cops arrive soon and save me so I can tweet something profound and see if my story gets me a “like” or two.”
Ya. That’s what matters.

Sadly Pakistan is the epicenter of Islamic terrorism. They have too many islamic radicals operating there and the govt and Military intelligence backs many as offensive against India. Unless Pakistan is cornered this thing will continue. Many get radicalised the moment they go to pakistan. Same as in Saudi Arabia.
