Omar Shafik Hammami And Raddulan Sahiron Added To FBI's Most Wanted Terrorist List

By -

A U.S. citizen who allegedly joined a terrorist group in Somalia and a man from the Philippines accused of kidnapping an American in 1993 are the newest additions to the FBI's list of most wanted terrorists.

Alabama native Omar Shafik Hammami eluded law enforcement authorities, who issued a warrant for his arrest on terrorism charges in 2007. The FBI claims that as early as 2006 Hammami, 28, provided assistance to al-Shabaab, a militant group that the Department of State calls a terrorist organization. He reportedly went to Somalia in 2007 to fight invading Ethiopian forces. It's believed that Hammami -- who uses the alias Abu Mansour al-Amriki -- remains in Somalia as a leader in al-Shabaab.

To some, Hammami is the rapping jihadi who's released six hip hop songs with extremist lyrics, according to ABC News. He released two a cappella tunes in 2011, including "Send Me A Cruise," in which he begs to be killed by a cruise missile or other attack like some of his martyred heroes.

Following the Osama bin Laden's assassination by a special U.S. Force in Pakistan last year, Hammami spoke out, threatening to get revenge on the United States and American interests, according to the Associated Press.

The second alleged terrorist named by the FBI today is Raddulan Sahiron. The bureau placed him on the most wanted terrorists list, which was created shortly after the 9/11 attacks, because of his alleged involvement in the abduction of an American in 1993. The FBI claims that Sahiron was involved with the 14 armed men who held the hostage for 23 day in the Abu Sayyaf Group's remote jungle camp.

In 2005, Sahiron became the leader of the group, which the State Department labeled a terrorist organization in 1997. Sahiron was indicted in 2007 on federal charges of hostage taking and aiding and abetting and causing an act to be done. It's believed that he's on the island of Sulu in the southern Philippines.

How a cyber attack hampered Hong Kong protesters

Massive public protests taking place in Hong Kong over the past week are aimed at a new extradition law, known as the Fugitive Offenders Ordinance , that would see accused criminals extradited to mainland China to face prosecution. Hongkongers feel the law could be used to legalise the kidnapping of people who express views, and act in ways, that are not popular with the Chinese government . The same law could also be used to extradite tourists and visitors to China who are arrested on suspicion of having committed these crimes. Protesters want the bill scrapped. For now, debate of the legislation has been postponed . Organisers say one million people turned out for the protests, while police estimate the number was around 240,000. Either way, it was a significant number of Hong Kong’s 7.5 million population. Commentators on Twitter remarked on how well organised the protesters were. So, how did they do it? Protesters across the world are using n

Islam Has Massacred Over 669+ Million Non-Muslims Since 622AD

In fact, no ideology has been as genocidal as Islam… Islam has killed more than 5 times the number of people killed by communism. In the total numbers we have updated over 80 million Christians killed by Muslims in 500 years in the Balkan states, Hungary, Ukraine, Russia. Then we have India. The official estimate number of Muslim slaughters of Hindus is 80 million. However, Muslim historian Firistha (b. 1570) wrote (in either Tarikh-i Firishta or  the Gulshan-i Ibrahim) that Muslims slaughtered over 400 million Hindus up to the peak of Islamic rule of India, bringing the Hindu population down from 600 mil to 200 million at the time. With these new additions the Muslim genocide of non-Muslims since the birth of Mohammed would be  over 669 million murders. Islam: The Religion of Genocide Perspective:   Think the Spanish inquisition was bad? More people are killed by Islamists each year than in all 350 years of the Spanish Inquisition* combined.
