California massacre shooter pledged allegiance to Islamic State: sources.


SAN BERNARDINO, Calif. (Reuters) - One of the two people accused of killing 14 at a holiday party in California apparently pledged allegiance to a leader of Islamic State militant group, two U.S. government source said on Friday.

Tashfeen Malik, 27, and her husband, Syed Rizwan Farook, 28, were killed in a shootout with police hours after the Wednesday massacre at the Inland Regional Center social services agency in San Bernardino, about 60 miles (100 km) east of Los Angeles. The attack was the deadliest mass shooting the United States has experienced in three years.

U.S. investigators are evaluating evidence that Malik, a Pakistani native who had been living in Saudi Arabia when she married Farook, had pledged allegiance to Islamic State leader Abu Bakr al-Baghdadi, two U.S. officials told Reuters. They said the finding, if confirmed, could be a "game changer" in the investigation.

CNN reported on Friday that one U.S. official said Malik had pledged allegiance to al-Baghdadi in a posting on Facebook made on Wednesday, the day of the attack, under an account that used a different name.

The investigation has been focused on the motivation for the attack with officials including President Barack Obama and San Bernardino Police Chief Jarrod Burguan saying it may have been motivated by extremist ideology.

Islamic State claimed responsibility for the Nov. 13 coordinated shooting and bombing attacks in Paris that killed 130 people and injured hundreds. The group has called on its supporters around the world to strike targets in the West.

Malik and Farook left behind a 6-month-old daughter. Farook's brother-in-law, Farhan Khan, told NBC News he had begun legal proceedings to adopt the girl and was "very upset and angry" at Farook.

"You left your 6-month-old daughter," Khan said. "In this life some people cannot have kids. God gave you a gift of a daughter. And you left that kid behind ... What did you achieve?"

Twenty-one people were wounded in the attack, the worst gun violence in the nation since the December 2012 shooting at Sandy Hook Elementary School in Newtown, Connecticut.

Farook, a U.S. citizen born in Illinois, was the son of Pakistani immigrants, said Hussam Ayloush, head of the Los Angeles area chapter of the Muslim advocacy group Council on American-Islamic Relations.

Christian Nwadike, who worked with Farook for five years, told CBS that his co-worker had been different since he returned from Saudi Arabia.

"I think he married a terrorist," Nwadike said.

Investigators are reviewing the couples' computers and cellphones to see if they had browsed jihadist websites or had contact with militant groups, according to officials in Washington familiar with the investigation.

Police said the couple had two assault-style rifles, two semi-automatic handguns and 1,600 rounds of ammunition in their vehicle, with 12 pipe bombs found in their home.

I always thought they would start using more women in attacks. Their using the fiance visa to get in. Thank you to the idiot terrorist couple for losing your temper and blowing your cover! Now we're coming to get the rest of you douchebags!

Go United States!

I can hear the Moaning and Groaning from the WH all the way here in Zurich!

so.... what do the women get for it? do they get 72 virgins as well?

There is one little problem with this attack that most people missed. It was mentioned a few times that in ≈30 seconds they'd know if the perps had criminal records or were FLAGGED as sympathizers/ on the no fly/ or terror watchlists.

NOT the fault of the police.
The woman came in from Saudi Arabia on 'fiancé visa'. They were not vetted, or tracked or monitored. Nor have they been in the past. nor are they likely to be the future.
* She was not an American citizen nor was her brother. And the husband, citizen or not, was not vetted or tracked or monitored, after his trip to Saudi Arabia. He came back a changed man. With a beard, radicalize (he never even spoke of religion before), & IMO.. Totally p@ssy whipped!

Blame Obama & the liberal kiss s@@ press... , not the police.

Edit: I just found this... & I am sure there is or will be a lot more.

So.....it mind be the issue about female, then two was angry with. But how.....that's ruthlessness if it is real......damn.......it's more likely swallowed some godamn toxic potions no.....bad....realy bad.....

No councilmen, trump made a statement saying it radical Islamic terrorism, which it isn't. A woman side by side with a man as an equal, no Islamic group would sanction that. Inspired by terrorist, perhaps but no group has taken credit andiI doubt any will.
Something else odd I noticed was the 'cubicle' witness said he went to the restroom during a 15 MINUTE BREAK. He must have forgotten he was at A CHRISTMAS PARTY.

Hi nailcap ,

Yes it is very bad.
He left the country. married a crazy ISIS woman. She poised his mind.
Brainwashing. Evil.
So the husband became just like the wife.

Ozzy!!!!!! You old bastard if I'm a grany you've never can hiding from my hot Kissing!!!!! You see that?!!!

Yea. Lust made them crazy.


No.. No lust in my world
Just crazy bastard ...

That pledge to al-baghdadi came during the shooting... Self radicalization.
The FBI evidence receipt had CHRISTMAS LIGHTS (OOPS!!!!) among the items seized and the 12 'pipe bombs' were empty just like the one they tossed out during the chase. No wires no fuses no black powder inside.
One of guys from the SWAT team is Iranian, as were one of the victims.
Isil still hasn't assumed or accepted responsibility for the attack.
Radical Islamic terrorism and Christmas lights...
I don't know whether to call it a conflict of interest or an interest of conflict. I think the latter.
