The Truth About The "Missing Kids"
Self-radicalized?
Though much of the blame for the missing Somali youth has been directed at local mosques, there are signs that the youth, galvanized by the 2006 Ethiopian invasion of Somalia, may have radicalized themselves. Widely believed to be supported by the Bush administration, Ethiopia’s invasion “has attracted the rapt attention of Somali diaspora communities and heightened their nationalistic sentiments,” Liepman testified before the Senate Homeland Security and Governmental Affairs Committee in March.
Extremist elements like al-Shabaab, a Somali group designated a terrorist organization by the U.S., have exploited the bitter reaction to the Ethiopian invasion and compelled young, despondent Somali men to join their ranks.
As a result, some of the men may have sold assets or worked overtime to pay the airfare to Somalia. Sources close to one of the missing young men, Abdisalam, known as “Bullet-head,” said that he sold his car just a few weeks before he left last year. At least a handful of the vanished youth have had decent paying jobs.
Earlier this month, a young man who uses the pseudonym “Abu Muslim” and claims to be a 23-year-old from Minneapolis, told a local radio station in Somalia that no one had recruited him to fight. “I chose to join the cause of jihad in my country,” he said in broken Somali, a clear sign that he grew up in the diaspora.
Also this month, al-Shabaab released a sophisticated 31-minute propaganda video designed to appeal to diaspora Somalis. The star of the video is a Caucasian man who calls himself “Abu Mansoor,” the American. He commands an English-speaking unit of about two dozen men, thought to be Somalis bred in the West. A Somali member of the unit, whose face is obscured, says in an American accent that he never thought he’d be leaving the comfort of home to carry an AK-47 in defense of his country.

Exactly; the kids have reacted on their own. America's intelligence and law enforcement agencies know that; that's why no one has been implicated in "brainwashing" those kids.

Re: The Truth About The "Missing Kids"
My observations of him:
- 24/7 talks about Islamic affairs, but not for Da'wah purposes. Always to get personal reactions on very controversial topics.
- Does not know how to socialize with Somalis and any small observation of him proofs this point.
- Has been banned time and time again by the Admin for being the only person to have logged in from proxy servers since the beginning.
- Is a known hacker and very good with computers but wants us to believe he can get away with what he comes with all the time without some anti-terrorism organization or apparatus noticing and trailing him.
- Does not speak Somali and does not understand it.
- Comes across as very fake.

Re: The Truth About The "Missing Kids"
I doubt it. No one posting from Langley would be tasked with checking Somalinet out. At the most, he is really junior.FAH1223 wrote:^^ He is posting from Langley, Virginia

Re: The Truth About The "Missing Kids"
Notice how I asked him the Somali question a minute after he posted this topic which is intended for very immediate feedback. Somehow the poor guy "disappeared".
