Yea, they’re just good kids who “lost their way” and were akin to being “kidnapped” by terrorists and forced to fight the jihad…. They’re not really terrorists. no no.

St. Paul, Minn. — Minnesota Congressman Keith Ellison said the U.S. government is trying to ensure the safe return of some of the young Somali-American men believed to be fighting with a terrorist group in their homeland.
Ellison said he has been included in classified briefings about efforts to bring the missing men back to the Twin Cities.
Right, they’re “missing” implying they were kidnapped and force to fight the Jihad
At least four Somali-American men from Minnesota who left to fight in the Horn of Africa have died there in recent months.
One of youngest, a skinny teenager from Minneapolis named Burhan Hassan, was trying to leave the fighting and make his way to the U.S. embassy in neighboring Kenya, according to family members. They believe a fellow member of the extremist group Al-Shabaab shot Hassan to death when the group learned of his plans to escape.
Oh no, poor victim jihadi who died trying to escape the jihad…Not. In my book, if you choose jihad, you choose death.
Congressman Keith Ellison thinks the U.S. should try to retrieve the Minnesotan men who may have been misled into joining Al-Shabaab and want out.
“We can’t have a knee-jerk emotional reaction,” Ellison said. “We’ve got to have an intelligent reaction. If a young person says, ‘I have been lied to. I don’t like these people. I want to get away from them,’ we should help them do that, as long as we know that does not create a public safety issue for Minnesotans and Americans.”

Ellison, whose district includes the largest concentration of Somali-Americans in the country, said the U.S. government has a vested interest in bringing the men back to safety. The FBI is investigating how and why about 20 men left the Twin Cities to join the chaos and bloodshed of a homeland they barely knew.
Here’s the money quote as Ellison completely gives these Somali-American terrorists a pass:
Congressman Ellison agrees that the U.S. government’s first responsibility is to protect its residents. But he also thinks if the recruits pose no threat to national security, they should be allowed to re-integrate into the American culture they left behind.
The simple fact is this… Ellison has no sense for protecting this country from Islamic terrorists. He thinks radical Islam is a myth and it’s just a bunch of thugs who aren’t really “true” Muslims. What a scary idea that we could see more Kieth Ellison’s in government positions in the years to come as more and more Muslims in America try to install their Islamist agenda on this country.
