FBI statistics reveal that Minnesota's 5th Congressional District, represented by Rep. Ilhan Omar (D-MN), is the terrorism recruitment capital of the United States.

According to the FBI, more Somali American men and boys from this district have joined, or have attempted to join, a foreign terror organization in the last 12 years than any other community in the US.

"Forty-five Somalis left to join the ranks of either the Somalia-based Islamic insurgency al-Shabab, or the Iraq- and Syria-based ISIS combined," Fox News reports.

Interesting link/cite combo.

I found the other link you probably meant to post. So we have Christian Broadcasting citing Fox citing the Heritage foundation. That's an impressive game of right-wing telephone.

It's a fact. There are also more radical mosques in Minneapolis than any other city of the same size in the U.S. The ties to terrorism are a natural extrapolation of that fact. The local FBI flounders about with squishy "outreach" programs and such.

Those are Omar's people, the group she is so proud to be a part of, and openly welcomed by the left of the 5th congressional district of MN.


RIP my hometown.

And Idaho leads the nation is neo-nazi recruitment.

Shall I associate your district with domestic terrorism?

Good point, but white nationalist/neo nazi terrorists pale greatly compared to terror acts commited domestically by muslims on a per capita basis in America.

Since 9/11 they don't.

So nothing to dispute the claim, just not your kind of people reporting it ? Is that it ?
