[Daily Caller] Department of Homeland Security officials knew Ohio State University attacker Abdul Razak Ali Artan was a possible recruitment target of Islamic terrorists but granted him asylum anyway, along with his mother and six of his siblings, Senate Judiciary Committee Chairman Chuck Grassley revealed in a letter sent Wednesday to the United States Citizenship and Immigration Services.While seeking asylum as refugees from Mogadishu, Somalia in 2013,
| ...that there is a term of art. Artan, his mother and siblings moved to Pakistan in 2007, where Artan eventually graduated from an advanced program at a top Islamabad high school. At some point his father got a job in Dubai, where apparently he remains. |
| In Pakistan?! |
| Must've happened in that fancy school in Islamabad. Unless it was in Columbus, Ohio, where there are lots of Somalis, because y'all left Somalia nine years ago, when our dead miscreant was only "nine". |
Artan’s father, according to the letter, had been kidnapped by the terrorist group. According to the Committee, one of Abdul’s siblings did not travel to America with the rest of the family, for reasons left unclear.
