Obama Throws Loretta Lynch Under the Bus, Relents and Releases Full Orlando 911 Transcripts
David K. Li – The New York Post Reports
Idiotic: That’s the only word for the Obama administration’s move to scrub references to Islam or ISIS from the transcripts of Orlando terrorist Omar Mateen’s calls. Under an avalanche of ridicule, the Justice Department on Monday relented and released the full transcripts.
After nearly 24 hours of criticism of its decision to redact mentions of radical Islamic terrorists and ISIS from transcripts of Orlando mass killer Omar Mateen’s 911 calls, the Obama administration on Monday afternoon relented and released uncensored versions of those same transcripts.
Even though authorities have made no secret that Mateen invoked ISIS as his motive for slaughtering 49 people inside a gay nightclub in Orlando last week, 911 transcripts initially released by the FBI on Monday morning awkwardly worked around mentioning the terror group.
But after the decision was widely mocked, the Department of Justice caved in and reversed its decision.
Mateen claimed he was under God’s order to kill people at Pulse nightclub in the early hours of June 12. He also dropped the name of ISIS leader Abu Bakr al-Baghdadi, both of which were blanked out of the earlier versions.
“In the name of God the merciful, the beneficent (in Arabic),” Mateen said during his call at about 2:35 a.m.
“Praise be to God, and prayers as well as peace be upon the prophet of (Arabic). I let you know, I’m in Orlando and I did the shootings.”
The operator asked Mateen his name.
“My name is I pledge of allegiance to Abu Bakr al-Baghdadi of the Islamic State,” Mateen responded.
Asked his name one more time, Mateen replied: “I pledge allegiance to Abu Bakr al-Baghdadi, may God protect him (Arabic), on behalf of the Islamic State.”
Florida Gov. Rick Scott said Monday he also couldn’t understand why the feds were tiptoeing around such obvious facts of the case.
“This seems like it is another example of not focusing on the evil here. This is evil. It’s ISIS. It’s radical Islam,” Scott told Fox News Channel.
