BREAKING: Trump administration claims the Somali referee was denied entry because he is a security threat to the US with links to suspected terrorists. He was questioned for 11 hours, including about Al Shabab Omar Abdulkadir Artan just landed back in Somalia to a hero's welcome

Links to terrorism gets you a heroes welcome, literally sums up the failed state of Somalia

11 hours grilling a guy whose job is literally blowing a whistle. US: 'Sir, is this whistle... connected to Al-Shabaab?'😂

Do you believe the US claim that the referee is a security threat who associates with terrorists?

Yk I wonder whose idea it was to host the World Cup there in the first place😪🤧🤧

You can’t call it a World Cup and then act surprised when the world shows up.

Hey!! That is an extreme profiling of the Somalis!

According to Trump and his MAGA death cult administration, every Black and Muslim outside the US is a terrorist. These are the same goons who tried to build Ebola quarantine camps on African soil for their own citizens. They want to talk about vetting concerns? If there is a terrorist in this story, it is not Omar Artan. The address is 1600 Pennsylvania Avenue.

This is yet more lies and misdirection. If he is a security threat then why did the USA issue him with a valid VISA?

I'm going to repeat this.. USA had no business hosting the world cup. Somalia would've made a better host

@ngigimwangi 11 hours of questions?

I thought he was only armed with a whistle.

Shually. How can he have terrorist links..... he's been a referee for over 5 years....what links him to terrorists yet the guy only worked his way to the top? USA is the worst host ever.

@crazy_kennar funny yet realistic video is aging like fine wine. Take a look. Where is the lie?

Trump pedophile & his regime are the terrorists who gave $40 millions per week to Alshabaab here is the evidence 👇

He's a terrorist and a worthless POS. We have another 200k of these PARASITIC SOMALIAN FREELOADERS who will be going home, too.

@Fantah_Baridi Why is the Trump trying to sugarcoat this blatant racism and Islamophobia. They should say it as it is with their chest we can't beat them

🚨 Omar Abdulkadir Artan has spoken publicly after being denied entry to the United States and missing the World Cup. “I want to thank FIFA, CAF, and the football family for their support. I’ll keep improving and focusing on the future.” A heartbreaking setback for a referee who was on the verge of making history as Somalia’s first-ever World Cup official. 💔

11 hours of grilling.when did he participated in terrorism whilst we see him daily officiating matches.

If you have a link with terrorists that are destabilizing Africa and causing economic meltdown in every African country, you have no business in America 🇺🇸 whether you are a referee, medical doctor, journalist, politician, lawyer, Islamic scholar, etc!

Why are people acting surprised by this move? This has been happening for a while. Trump even said Somalia is not a country. Why are people surprised now that one Somali has been denied a visa? The US has already designated Somalia as a terrorist safe haven.

@MoiraKelly97154 Yeah, everybody’s a terrorist if they are brown or black!!! 🤬🤬🤬🤬🤬🤬🤬🤬🤬🤬The US is gonna be the most hated country in the world.

I guess Trump had a dream that there would be a match between Iran and America, and Omar Atan would be the one to officiate it. Iran 2 America 1 Trump does not want this to happen. He refused Iran entry; now he is refusing Omar entry. America now has a walkover in Trump’s dream

An honest man cannot make his living because of where he was born? Can they show where he was involved in terrorist activities in the countries he has officiated? It's blatant discrimination based on religion and color by the Epstein government.

Good we don’t need anymore invaders. We have plenty to deport out of here as is. @SecRubio time to deport.

The poorly educated people who love Trump, support extremely racist things like this, while convincing themselves that they've mastered the art of excusing racism.

Fucking liars. Pedophiles lie 247

Trump's administration treat's every Somali as a threat,this is not good at all!

Good, stay there and be a hero. Don't fucking try to come back.

@niinaitravis That’s a BIG SHAME! The USA is not doing anyone a favor to get into the country. If not for World Cup only few or less have plans visiting your country. Gun shot etc often time unexpectedly. Got life’s to protect.

I don’t give a shit where he is as long as he’s not in the United States.

@IkwapMatthew When that other country in the Middle East kills journalists, they label them terrorists, terrorist sympathizers, Hezbollah informants etc. When the US denies a Somali referee an opportunity of a lifetime, they label them “suspected” terrorists because…..well, Somalia. Wild!

Omar Artan welcomed like hero in Somalia 🇸🇴

I tend to wonder why a Referee who was named referee of the year could be a security threat to US just because he's from Somalia. I understand US and its rules but denying an official entry to US is so mean of Trump, if this is how World cup was gonna be carried out in US then Trump ought to have declined hosting of the tournament in their soil. At least this is a lesson learnt and @FIFAcom won't make the same mistake in time to come.
