Orlando Terrorist Reportedly Called 911 to Pledge Allegiance to ISIS Leader
What we know about the terrorist so far
Details continue to emerge about Omar Mateen, the man who murdered 50 people and injured over 50 more at Pulse, a popular gay club in Orlando, FL.
NBC News has reported that Mateen called 911 right before he committed the massacre. Officials told reporter Pete Williams that Mateen told the operators he “pledged allegiance to Islamic State in Iraq and Syria (ISIS) leader Abu Bakr al-Baghdadi.”
One law enforcement agent told CNN that the FBI opened “two cases on Mateen in the past,” but they could not find “evidence to charge him with anything.” They placed him on their radar as a possible Islamic State (ISIS/ISIL) sympathizer:
In response to a question to whether the shooter may have had a connection to radical Islamic terrorism, FBI Assistant Special Agent in Charge Ronald Hopper said investigators are “looking into all angles right now.”
“We do have suggestions that that individual may have leanings toward that particular ideology but we can’t say definitively,” Hopper said.
The Miami Herald reported that federal agents arrived on the scene to investigate if “Mateen has links to international terrorism.” They wrote:
As the country awoke Sunday to the shock of yet another mass shooting, federal agents with South Florida’s Joint Terrorism Task Force had joined in the investigation into Mateen, who is of Afghan descent. Authorities with knowledge of the investigation say agents have already begun interviewing Mateen’s relatives, and search warrants are expected to be executed Sunday afternoon.
However, Mateen’s father Mir Seddique does not believe this has anything to do with his religion. Seddique said his son “got angry” when he saw two men kissing Miami. Mateen expressed disgust with the action, especially since he had his son with him.
Mateen married Sitora Alisherzoda Yusufiy in 2009 and they share a three-year-old son. State documents show they divorced in 2011. She described him as “violent and mentally unstable.” She told The Washington Post the marriage began normal, but became abusive:
“He was not a stable person,” said the ex-wife, who spoke on the condition of anonymity because she feared for her safety in the wake of the mass shooting. “He beat me. He would just come home and start beating me up because the laundry wasn’t finished or something like that.”
They met online and she moved to Florida to marry him. She never witnessed any movement towards radical Islam during their brief time together.
But her parents swooped in and rescued their daughter when they learned her husband assaulted her. They took her back home, which is not mentioned in the article, but they came from Uzbekistan, and left all her belongings in the condo.
However, this article did not mention a son or child between the two.
He worked as a private security guard in Miami and held an associates degree in criminal justice from Indian River State College. He also possessed a Statewide Firearms License.
He used a rental car to drive to Orlando from Port St. Lucie. Officials have arrived at his apartment with the bomb squad.

Apparently LA police caught another ISIS related terrorist trying to act at their gay pride parade today.
One has to wonder if there was any coordination.
Yep. Coordinated isolated random acts.
…Mateen, who is of Afghan descent.
Probably a member of the Jayvee Team traveling squad.
Barack Obama and the left are trying to seed the country with these freaks.
Working just as hard, is Hillary Clinton:

After today’s massacre in Orlando, will the gay voting bloc wake up and realize who their friends really are, versus who would get them and their nation wiped out?
Hey, gun control. Yeah, that’s the ticket…
I guess all those ‘oppressive and backwards’ people who voted against gay marriage are not looking so bad now. They responded in a civil and non-violent way.
Islam keeps trying to go back to the 7th century. Kill gays. That is what they preach in their mosques (when they are not preaching kill jews.)
When average Omars down at the local Mosque start killing people – it is not about Radical Jihandis. It is about Islam.
So he just “saw” two guys in Miami kissing but then goes to a gay bar in Orlando to make a statement? And then dad says that this has nothing to do with religion but yet he calls 911 prior to killing innocent people?
Not making sense to me.
How can he walk into a place with 300 people (mostly guys?) and kill 50, have to reload several times and NOT ONE OF THEM rushed him? NO ONE defended themselves? How was he so insanely accurate with his shooting? Were they lined up for him? I need more details.
I would be very careful criticizing people for not”rushing” the shooter unless you were there. If you have ever been indoors when someone fires a large caliber gun near you, it is like a blow to your head and stomach. You are momentarily deafened and blinded by the noise and flashes. Throw in the screaming and chaos that followed and you are as near hell as you’ll ever get! To say you would rush such a horrible situation is just short of insanity. If you were a trained SEAL or such you might react with training and proceed towards the sound but if not then most people would get under their table or run.
Also, there was an armed security guard that confronted him. I’m pretty sure the number of fatalities would me much higher without the armed security guard. That initial shooting probably saved dozens of lives.
How do you know nobody rushed him?
How do you know that no one defended themselves?
So easy behind a keyboard to make judgements about
what the victims should have done!
“Oh, but he has such dreamy eyes!” –The same women of America who said this about Osama bin Laden.
“After today’s massacre in Orlando, will the gay voting bloc wake up and realize who their friends really are, versus who would get them and their nation wiped out?”
Compared with this, not baking a cake doesn’t seem so bad.
If obama wanted to put a stop to this he would put restrictions on muslims, not guns. I am no bigot but good God! We are going to die in the name of political correctness! Take ten men of ten different religions and if one of them was muslim which one would you bet your life on that would be a terrorist? If you are a woman which one religious group on this planet would you not want to walk by on the street at night?
You can not be a Muslim and an American in the same breath. It’s a political system trying to destroy mine. I want these people OUT of my country. Now.
Yeah… I don’t think these online matchmaking sites are as good as they advertise to be… people lie in their profiles… I mean… that’s what “a friend” told me…
Now being reported that the killer worked security for G4S, the British security firm. This firm is the entity tasked by DHS to, completely illegally, move and release unprocessed illegal alien border crossers to cities far from the borders.

How many other like minded terrorists did Obama and his lackies permit this guy to move undetected into our country?
If this report is true, the time for direct action may have come.
We’ve lost our collective minds. How on earth can such insanity happen?
Thanks for the link, though.
BAN ALL THE GUNS.
There is no way any mass murderer in his right mind is going to risk adding an Illegal Possession Of A Firearm count to his list of fifty First Degree Murder and fifty-three Attempted First Degree Murder charges, so…
BAN ALL THE GUNS.
Too bad there isn’t a Presidential candidate smart and brave enough to call for a pause in the mass importation of muslims… oh, wait…
A former Fort Pierce police officer who once worked with 29-year-old Omar Mateen, the assailant in an Orlando nightclub shooting that left at least 50 dead, said he was “unhinged and unstable.”
———-
“I quit because everything he said was toxic,” Gilroy said Sunday, “and the company wouldn’t do anything. This guy was unhinged and unstable. He talked of killing people.”
Gilroy said this shooting didn’t come as a surprise to him.

The shooter who killed 20 and wounded 42 at a gay nightclub in Orlando, Omar Mir Siddique Mateen, was
a registered Democrat
who has voted in at least 3 recent general elections, according to voters.findthedata.com. He registered to vote on July, 19,2006, but skipped the election that November. But he voted by absentee ballot in the 2008 and 2012 presidential elections, presumably for his party’s candidate, Barack Obama. He even voted in the off year 2014 general election, this time showing up at the polls to vote, perhaps a sign of increasing political enthusiasm.
Why bother noting this? Becuase if he had been a Christian Republican, you can bet everything you own that the media would be trumpeting it from the rooftops. And if he had owned any Trump paraphenalia, it would be the biggest story in the world.
The United States of America’s government is infested with TRAITORS…!! Many of these TRAITORS are muslims…..many of these TRAITORS are not muslims but this does not make them any less TRAITORS..!! Our government is infested with antiAmericans….INCLUDING the PRESIDENT….and our country is being infiltrated with dangerous people as we speak…!!!
This evil shooter’s father claims to be the President of Afghanistan. If you’ll remember, CLOCK BOY’s father also claimed to be the President of Sudan..!! As Americans, we have absolutely NO IDEA who is coming into our country. There are some very powerful muslims who have been allowed into our country by Barack INSANE Obama as well as many ISIS foot soldiers…!! We must get these dangerous people out of our country.
Will Hillary Clinton, who has already told us she will take up Obama’s antiAmerican mantle, and continue with his antiAmerican slipshod manner of allowing in illegals into our country with NO vetting, work towards FIXING this…? My answer is a BIG NO…!! With Hillary, we will have more of the same insanity..! There is only one person who even speaks about our country being overrun by these horrible THREATS from muslims and that is Donald Trump…! The decision of who to vote for president should be clear by now…!
Our country is being sold and stolen right from under us by Barack Obama and Hillary Clinton will continue to put our sovereignty in jeopardy…!! This is our time to turn things around..!! This upcoming election will be a game changer….! We must reclaim our country from these TRAITORS…!! Then let’s put Barack INSANE Obama and Hillary Clinton and all the rest of them in front of a firing squad for TREASON…!!
