Terror attack at NAS Corpus Christi
https://www.nbcnews.com/news/us-news/nav...e-n1211901
Quote:A gunman opened fire at Naval Air Station Corpus Christi on Thursday, wounding at least one security force member in a "terrorism related" attack, authorities said.
The coastal base in Nueces County, Texas, about 140 miles southeast of San Antonio, was on lockdown after security responded to an active shooter around 6:15 a.m.
The shooter was initially called "neutralized," the base said in a Facebook post, before FBI agents confirmed later that he had been fatally shot at the scene.
The injured security force member is in good condition and expected to survive.
Quote:"We have determined that the incident this morning at the Naval Air Station in Corpus Christi is terrorism related," said FBI Senior Supervisory Special Agent Leah Greeves, who did not offer any further details.
"We may have a potential second related person of interest at large in the community.”

I didnt see any mention of race. Must not have been a white person. Otherwise it would be in the headline.

No mention, much less wall to wall coverage of the mass shooting in AZ yesterday either, which the shooter streamed on Snapchat. I’ll leave it up to your imagination as to why that is.
Democrats are shameless.

Quote:Defense Secretary Mark Esper said Friday on 'The Today Show' that the wounded sailor is 'doing well.' He also said the FBI knows the basics of what happened during the attack but is working through details, including about the suspect.
'We hope to know more in the coming days as to what happened, what this person was motivated by,' Esper said. 'But we need to let the facts come out, let the investigators do their job, and we´ll see where this ends up.'
Social media accounts matching Alsahli's profile on Twitter, Facebook and WhatsApp featured support for hardline clerics, mostly from Saudi Arabia, and jihadi figures such as Ibrahim al-Rabaysh, who had been a spokesman for the Yemen branch of Al Qaeda and who was killed by a US drone strike in 2015, according to Rita Katz, director of the SITE Intelligence Group.
Katz tweeted a translated version of a passage posted on Alsahli's Twitter page, which read: 'I love the Mujahidin [sic], I’m not one of them and my sword is aimed over the necks of whoever doubts them (stabs them). '
The dastardly Amish strike again!

Who would have thought that the perp was tied to Middle Eastern politics. I would have bet the mortage it was those damned Amish getting unruly again.

Eric Holder and Barry still think this is just workplace violence.

RE: Terror attack at NAS Corpus Christi
According to the U.S. Naval Institute, (The NAVY and the FBI as well) the sailor pictured is not who was shot, and all of those details are unconfirmed. Sounds like another Jessica Lynch situation.

Apparently just a random chick with a dog. The original post was updated to remove the picture from the description as well.
