FBI chief on Somali suicide bomber
American Jihadi. The "radicalization" of Muslim immigrants centers on Mosques and Islamic community centers. Just how many sleeper Jihadi are there in America? More to the point, what is the FBI and ICE doing to root out these subversives?

FBI chief on Somali suicide bomber: “It appears that this individual was radicalized in his hometown in Minnesota”
Who "radicalized" him? Who else was "radicalized"? Are the teachings that "radicalized" Shirwa Ahmed being taught in any mosques in America? (Of course they are.)
Shirwa Ahmed
Update: "Militants Drew Recruit in U.S., F.B.I. Says," by David Johnston for the New York Times, February 23 (thanks to James):
WASHINGTON — The F.B.I. director, Robert S. Mueller III, said Monday that a Somali-American man who was one of several suicide bombers in a terrorist attack last October in Somalia had apparently been indoctrinated into his extremist beliefs while living in the United States.
The man, Shirwa Ahmed, was the first known suicide bomber with American citizenship. He immigrated with his family to the Minneapolis area in the mid-1990s, Mr. Mueller said, but he returned to Somalia after he was recruited by a militant group.
“It appears that this individual was radicalized in his hometown in Minnesota,” Mr. Mueller said, speaking at a meeting of the Council on Foreign Relations. Minneapolis claims the country’s largest Somali population.
Mr. Ahmed was driving a vehicle laden with explosives that blew up in northern Somalia in an attack that killed as many as 30 people, according to news reports. His body was returned to the United States with the help of the F.B.I....
“It raises the question of whether these young men will one day come home, and, if so, what might they undertake here,” he said.
Indeed.
