Orlando terrorist Omar Mateen worked for G4S – a security company who provides services to the U.S. Department of Homeland Security and other agencies.
G4S also states on its website: “Every G4S security officer participates in a training program that far exceeds industry standards, becoming a specialist trained to both recognize and react to unique hazards of an assigned post.”
So let’s explore:

In 2007, [Mateen] was hired by G4S, a private security firm based in Jupiter. His assignment at the time of his death: working as a security guard at a gated retirement community in South Florida, the company reported.
However, before that, G4S assigned him, for a time, to the St. Lucie County Courthouse in Fort Pierce, a gig that ended in 2013, according to court Administrator Thomas Genung. –link–

County Courthouse security ended in 2013?

Interesting developments.  If you look at Mateen’s apartment pictures shared via Daily Mail, it would appear nothing was amiss.  No obvious signs of packing up, no removal of personal items, nothing which would suggest a long-term pre-planned exit for either Omar Mateen or his wife Noor Zahi Salman and their 3-year-old son.
The apartment appears as if someone was just gone to work, etc. – SEE HERE –
Now witness reports are surfacing that Omar Mateen was a regular visitor to the Pulse nightclub [Orlando Sentinel], and the LA Times has a witness report from a patron who exchanged messages with him via a Gay Dating App.
(LA Times)  […]  Kevin West, a regular at Pulse nightclub, said Omar Mateen messaged him on and off for a year before the shooting using the gay chat and dating app Jack’d.
But they never met – until early Sunday morning.
West was dropping off a friend at the club when he noticed Mateen – whom he knew by sight but not by name – crossing the street wearing a dark cap and carrying a black cellphone about 1 a.m., an hour before the shooting. (more…)

Many people are critical of FBI Director James Comey today for conflating the attack and obfuscating the motives and intent of terrorist Omar Mateen.  Many seem shocked by what seems to be Comey’s lack of willing recognition.

IF YOU HAVE WATCH THAT VIDEO – Most of the shock behind the criticism can then be reconciled when you remember the FBI and DHS were warned about the attack at least three days in advance,  -AND-  additionally the terrorist Omar Mateen was working for a security contractor G4S, which is also a contractor for The Department of Homeland Security.

Anticipating there will be considerable interest, and numerous angles for conversation, consider this an open discussion thread for anything to do with the Orlando Nightclub Terrorist Attack.

The Jihadist  – The Ideological Imam – Their Terrorist Target

This wasn’t the first targeted at gays, and it won’t be the last.  Nightclubs have been a historic target for Islamic terrorists for decades.  La Belle 1986 – Bataclan 2015

Oh boy, all the dots are connecting quickly now…. We suspected this would happen. This is going to make the White House very uncomfortable because it connects the Muslim/Islamist elements of the •Black Lives Matter, •Fuck The Police, and •New Black Panthers… connections we have been outlining for five years.

Orlando Jihadist Omar Matten was radicalized by New Back Panther Party Member, Marcus Dwayne Robertson (below left), who is a known advocate of radical Islam in Florida and was formerly famous for being a bodyguard for the Blind Sheik.

Marcus Robertson (above left) is a severely anti-gay Muslim activist, and has an on-line radicalization class known as “Fundamental Islamic Knowledge Seminary.”  CTH readers will also know the names of other participants in his studies such as Eric Sheppard Jr and the “F**k The Flag” movement.
Fortunately Fox News is covering the angle:
(Via Fox News) The gunman who murdered at least 50 people in a Florida nightclub early Sunday morning was a follower of a controversial gang leader-turned-bank robber who was released from prison last year despite warnings from prosecutors that he would recruit people to carry out violent acts, sources told FoxNews.com.

Why does the media only reference an ex-wife, Sitora Yusufly from 2009 ?
It looks like his first wife, the one in all the media interviews (pictured left), was a green-card marriage from Uzbekistan.
Omar Mateen was currently married and has a young son.  Who is the current wife?  Why is there virtually no discussion of this in the media?  It’s always the questions you are not allowed to ask that reveal the most.
UPDATE 11:00pm:  Found Her via public records – in 2013 Omar Mateen married Noor Zahi Salman (pictured below).  They have a 3-year-old son together.
Noor Zahi Salman, age 30, has scrubbed her social media history:

Omar Mateen lived in St. Lucie County, Florida, with his second wife, Noor Zahi Salman, but it is not clear if they were together or separated at the time of the shooting.  Mateen sold his sister, Mariam Seddique, the house in April ’16 for $10 (Quit Claim Deed).

(Via WaPo) […] Mateen later had a son with another woman who also appears to have left him and declined to comment when reached at her current home. –link–

It looks like the Washington Post knows where she is, so she’s not hiding very well.

This is a little disturbing.  Remember Amed Mohamed and the exploited islamic opportunism with 14-year-old “clock boy” bomb hoax from Irving Texas and how his father was running for political office in Sudan?
Well, apparently 29-year-old terrorist Omar Mateen (below left) comes from a similarly engaged political family and his father, Seddique Mateen (below right), was/is running for national office in Afghanistan and not happy with the government of Pakistan.

Presidential candidate Donald Trump released the following statement today regarding the Jihadist nightclub attack in Orlando Florida.
(Via Donald J Trump) Last night, our nation was attacked by a radical Islamic terrorist. It was the worst terrorist attack on our soil since 9/11, and the second of its kind in 6 months. My deepest sympathy and support goes out to the victims, the wounded, and their families.
In his remarks today, President Obama disgracefully refused to even say the words ‘Radical Islam’. For that reason alone, he should step down. If Hillary Clinton, after this attack, still cannot say the two words ‘Radical Islam’ she should get out of this race for the Presidency.
If we do not get tough and smart real fast, we are not going to have a country anymore. Because our leaders are weak, I said this was going to happen – and it is only going to get worse. I am trying to save lives and prevent the next terrorist attack. We can’t afford to be politically correct anymore. (more…)

Federal officials are now admitting Orlando Terrorist Attacker Omar Mateen was a known entity to them and was previously interviewed in connection to ISIS suicide bomber Moner Abu Salha.
In a press conference, an FBI spokesman says the agency first interviewed Omar Mateen in 2013 after he made “inflammatory remarks” to a colleague. The investigation was closed.
The FBI interviewed Mateen again in 2014 about a potential connection with suicide bomber Moner Abu Salha.   The FBI investigation found no “substantial relationship” between Mateen and Salah. (link)
♦ Omar Mateen worked for a security firm under contract to the Department of Homeland Security called G4S.  Mateen was licensed as a security guard and also holds a firearms license. G4S, a global security firm with an office in Jupiter. The same company is used by DHS to move illegal aliens around the country.
