If the video I saw was authentic, somebody on HRT started yelling “landslide”. Which means get out the way you cake there’s explosives in here.

Which leads me to believe he might have had a device on his person as well. That’s something we don’t normally see here.

It seems to me that there are many more incidents in which a BG claims to have explosives than actually does.

Great job, HRT!


They also did a great job down in Georgia when that nut job kidnapped that young boy and held him in a bunker a few years ago. The Team House interviewed the former Commander of HRT, Danny Coulson. I was amazed that they were able to the boy out when it first happened, but I was even more amazed when I learned how they did it. It's available on The Team House podcast.
I believe you're referring to this:
2013 Alabama bunker hostage crisis, Midland City, AL

Which is about 10 miles from where I'm located... But yes, thumbs up for HRT. Wink

"The Texas synagogue hostage taker's demands were specifically focused on issues not connected to the Jewish community." Critics are slamming the FBI as 'solely focused on destroying the domestic enemies of the Democratic Party'

Give me a fucking break. Yeah, the "guy with the English accent" just chose a synogogue at random. Just who do you think you're fooling?? Liar. L-I-A-R


The FBI is facing backlash on social media after an official said that the Texas synagogue hostage taker’s demands were "not specifically related to the Jewish community."

"The FBI is now an organization solely focused on destroying the domestic enemies of the Democratic Party," conservative talk radio show Jesse Kelly tweeted Sunday morning. "Any Republican Congress or Presidential candidate who doesn’t loudly proclaim his intention to massively reform or disband this organization should not be considered."

Kelly’s tweet came in response to the Associated Press reporting that FBI officials said "the Texas synagogue hostage taker's demands were specifically focused on issues not connected to the Jewish community."

"We do believe from our engaging with this subject that he was singularly focused on one issue, and it was not specifically related to the Jewish community. But we're continuing to work to find motive," FBI Special Agent in Charge Matt DeSarno said at a press conference.

Very true.

But something in this case caused the team leader to call landslide after they were internal.

Malik Faisal Akram - 44-year-old British citizen

Yeah, he just chose a synagogue at random.

"This was an act of terror," Biden remarked, praising the FBI and vowing he would speak with the rabbi on how his administration can support houses of worship with "the antisemitism that’s ramping up."
You want to get rid of anti-semitism, you hypocrite? You can do so by removing every Democrat from this country. And the idea that Biden can have a positive effect on anything is ludicrous. That rabbi woud have a better chance of finding a solution to anti-semitism by talking with his cat.

I'm waiting to hear that the happily deceased was on the radar of British police/domestic intelligence who notified US intelligence of his travels and in turn put TOP MEN on the trail. To bad they were distracted by those noisy parents at school board meetings.

I would no more criticize an LEO for assuming that what appears to be an explosive device is actually one than I would criticize an LEO for assuming that what looks like a gun is a gun.

I hope some of the details of the incident come out. If it turns out that there were actual explosives present it would be good to know what kind they were and how the terrorist got them.

Malik Faisal Akram is from Blackburn in northwest England in Lancashire. The Blackburn Muslim Community posted a message on Facebook after he was identified stating, “Faisal Akram has sadly departed from this temporary world and returned to his Creator.

He was identified in a statement from the FBI.
Four hostages, all adults, including Rabbi Charlie Cytron-Walker, were held in the synagogue for several hours before being released uninjured.

Link



Just trying to understand.
A Muslim travels from England to a Synagogue in Texas and takes a Rabbi and three congregants hostage.
Yet this is not specifically related to the Jewish community.

What possible singular issue could there have been which would not be specifically related to the Jewish community?

Very curious.
Why travel to the U.S. from England to commit this crime.
It will be very interesting to hear from the FBI as to what this singular issue was.
Perhaps it is spin to say that the issue was not the Jewish community, yet the crime was committed against the Jewish community.

Takes a very wide leap to remove the religious aspect from this crime.

Well, I previously posted that I thought the HRT did a great job. But now it looks like their Admin types have fucked the whole thing up. No real surprise, I guess.
No antisemitism involved? He took hostages in a Synagogue, not a KFC! Roll Eyes

They are going way too far out of their way to assure everyone this guy wasn’t a Muslim terrorist scumbag.

They probably have knowledge that a bunch got into the country via the open border and are now trying not to cause a panic. Mad

I have no idea what a typical synagogue looks like, but I looked at the pictures of this particular one and the giant Star of David is what I would call a clue that would clearly delineate one from say a McDonalds, Publix, or any number of buildings that would contain people for hostage taking.

So a Brit got high on tea & crumpets then staggered into a totally random location to threaten a few people......

Huh. At first I thought it was an Islamic terrorist who targeted a synagogue and Jews.

Glad I was wrong.
