One of those old line British families, the Akrams......probably actually from Pakistan or Syria or who knows where in the Muslim world.

More "mental health issues" excuse. Every case of a violent jihadi has been using this excuse for quite a while. The Colorado supermarket killer's family said the same about him.
So, apparently the devout Muslims who do what the Koran tells them to do are crazy, but the other Muslims are not crazy?
I'm thinking that saying that being a devout Islamist is insanity isn't going to be a really great long term legal strategy. OTOH, marrying your cousins for 1400 years might increase the number of folks who actually do have mental health issues.

Good riddance. This is just the start. My Methodist church has a handful of trained and armed men at every service. This is what our country has come to under the Democrats. If you jihadis want to come south we don’t have 72 virgins for you but we do have 9mm hollow points. Come ahead.

CAIR will soon be accusing anyone connecting Akram with Islam or critical of Islam of being Islamophobic. The media will quickly drop any mention of this hostage event.

At least three prior "Sudden Jihad Syndrome" mostly peaceful/not really 'real' terrorism events have had similar outcomes in the state, Garland, Plano, NAS Corpus Christi.

How did he pay for his airline ticket? Did he have a job? Does the State Department do any kind of screening of visa applicants?
Why do I bother to ask??

Most common name in Europe, ...Mohamed.
The most common location of worship and prayer in America? Muslim Synagogue.
The rot has started and nobody cares.

I lived and worked for 20 years within jogging distance from the synagogue in question. Within shouting distance are many of the best SWAT teams in Texas, if not the US and beyond. Why any sane LEO commander or mayor in this area would call in FBI HRT, is beyond reasoning. DFW Airport DPS on the east side of Colleyville, had and may still have, one of the best hostage rescue teams in the country. They don't blunt their anti-terror training and skills with numerous drug raid call-outs, as do many of the more urban SWAT units of North Texas. Dallas, Ft. Worth, Irving, and Arlington have world class SWAT capabilities and very liberal mutual aid agreements in place to help each other and/or the smaller 'burbs of the DFW Metroplex. Real Po-lice don't ever call the FBI or request HRT, so I'm curious how they got involved jurisdiction-wise. A well trained local team possibly could have negotiated the release of hostages and a surrender by the hostage taker, which may not make for good video but is always preferable for intelligence gathering purposes. FBI HRT is not known for achieving optimum outcomes. I have a feeling they showed up because somebody din't want any intel from the hostage taker.

And the FBI had no idea what the motive is for the attack? It’s time to pressure every FBI member. Make them all quit. The rank and file Sean Hannity has been praising for five years are corrupt and need to be fired or charged with crimes. Every federal law enforcement agency with may be exception of border patrol, ICE and US Marshall’s need to be totally replaced. Otherwise we will never have law and order.
