Soldier links terrorist in Kentucky to attacks in Iraq

Army Staff Sgt. Joshua Hedetniemi couldn't believe what he was hearing: Two al Qaeda terrorists had been arrested in a small town in Kentucky, right in America's heartland.

Thank you State Department.
I guess we could count on Secretary of State Clinton's Team to bring the war home.

You and I were paying their rent amongst other things. These clowns are just the tip of the iceberg.

Wow, kind of like the Tsarnaev brothers in Boston.

I'm not that surprised. When C/5/19 was still in Ft Collins, my partner and I reported our facility being collected on many times. And from talking with former teammates who are now LEO's, it's startling to find out just how many ME persons of interest are lurking about in "Small Town, USA".

I would wager a paycheck or two that the Somali enclave in Greeley has a rotten egg or two.

Any processing food plants (Tysons, Simmon, Earp Meat, etc.) in Greeley?

Yes there are. I can't recall which one but they are out there. Guys I know in LE have said even the Mexicans are worried about the Somali gangs in Greeley. They have essentially been transplanted from their natural habitat and sent over here where there are no natural enemies to keep them in check. It's pretty much easy living for them no matter what trouble they get into here. It's not not like the local cops or feds are going to take a machete to them, riddle them with an AK, hang them in the bush, or toss a burning tire around their necks as punishment for committing violent crimes.
It's really messed up with the way Greeley has become. It is only about 30 minutes east of Ft Collins, but with the conditions there being so bad, one would think it was part of a third world country half a world away.

FBI busted some Somali Tysons workers in Noel, MO for bomb making materials a year or two ago. Some other stuff happened and a large group of locals showed up at the local Mosque in Anderson locked and loaded.

According to a relative that was a plant supervisor at a Simmons poultry plant in Siloam Springs it is not uncommon for the Somali's to get into knife fights in the plant.

They are a crazy bunch.
