There is a story about how in the early 1870s, the Jesse James gang, looking to both duck town (Kansas City, Missouri) for a while and score some more bank heists in what they thought would be easy pickings, rode north to Minneapolis, Minnesota. Surely the "Yeah, sure, you betcha" Scandanavian immigrants, being so polite and clueless, wouldn't see the blows coming.
Instead, they emerged from their first bank robbery attempt into the street to face snipers in the upper windows of the facing buildings across the street. Two gang members were killed, and the remainder fled, with a thousand-man posse in hot pursuit. It was the beginning of the end of the James gang.
Fourteen decades later, Minnesotans have become as clueless as Jesse James originally suspected - and/or as treacherous as nobody ever imagined:
Six Minnesota men have been charged with terrorism in a criminal complaint unsealed Monday, the latest Westerners accused of traveling or attempting to travel to Syria to join the Islamic State group.
The six, whom authorities described as friends who met secretly to plan their travels, are accused of conspiracy to provide material support and attempting to provide material support to a foreign terrorist organization. The complaint says the men planned to reach Syria by flying to nearby countries from Minneapolis, San Diego or New York City, and lied to federal investigators when they were stopped.
Charged are Mohamed Abdihamid Farah, 21; Adnan Abdihamid Farah, 19; Abdurahman Yasin Daud, 21; Zacharia Yusuf Abdurahman, 19; Hanad Mustafe Musse, 19; and Guled Ali Omar, 20.
I'm noticing a common thread here.
"These were focused men who were intent on joining a terrorist organization," Minnesota U.S. Attorney Andy Luger said at a news conference Monday.
The six were arrested Sunday in Minneapolis and San Diego and are scheduled to make initial appearances in federal court on Monday.
They are the latest people from Minnesota to be charged in an investigation stretching back months into the recruitment of Westerners by ISIS. Authorities said earlier that a handful of Minnesota residents have traveled to Syria to fight with militants in the past year, and at least one has died.
I take it back - this is not treachery. Treachery is when you swear allegiance to something and then betray that oath; six young men who require several quarts of phlegm to pronounce their names quite obviously never had any allegiance for this country to begin with, and yet were deliberately imported here by the Obama Regime for, I can only logically conclude, this very purpose of serving as jihadist recruiters....and foot-soldiers.
Almost makes you wonder if the FBI didn't get that particular memo, doesn't it? And if this "dragnet" is just a token round up allowing the hundreds or thousands of others to continue their operations, unfettered and fancy free.
