Isis comes to ohio

The Islamic State militant group claimed responsibility on Tuesday for the attack.
Abdul Razak Ali Artan, 20, was shot dead by a police officer on Monday moments after he plowed his car into a crowd of pedestrians and then leapt out and began stabbing people with a butcher knife.

Investigators were probing the background of Artan, a Muslim who was a lawful permanent resident of the United States and a student at Ohio State.

Police have given no motive for the attack on the Columbus campus.

So far, investigators have found no strong evidence linking Artan to other known militant individuals, cells or groups, said two federal law enforcement officials, who declined to be named because the probe is ongoing.

Trump right again

Well of course ISIS would claim responsibility.
 
I doubt it was anything planned. It has the hallmarks of an impulsive and ill-considered act, not a professional operation. Doubt ISIS had even heard of the guy before yesterday.



OTOH I don't doubt the perp was probably ISIS-inspired. ISIS very existence, Caliphate claims and so on play to Muslims susceptible to radicalization. No doubt we'll see more of these 'lone wolf jihadis" in the future.



ISIS needs to be destroyed.
 
I doubt the KKK ever heard of Dylan Roof..I don't doubt the perp was probably KKK-inspired. SO WHAT


ISIS very existence?????? WTF I thought Obama said they were contained?

Obama thinks it's more important to topple Assad in Syria and our current intelligence agencies would rather arm "moderate rebels" who are sympathetic to ISIS.

Like I said before if the president stubs his toe ISIS will take responsibility.
 
Oh come on, any schmuck with a tv can shank a bunch of students and say its in the name of "Allah and the great struggle of IS".
 
Obviously a dark fantasy inspired by internet propaganda. censoring the net would be a good idea, but then, what about dark fantasy like nearly all american movies?
