Synopsis
The suit centers on the Dec. 6, 2019, shooting at Naval Air Station Pensacola in which Mohammed Saeed Alshamrani shot and killed three U.S. sailors. It comes nine months after U.S. officials revealed that Alshamrani, a Saudi Air Force officer, had communicated with al-Qaida operatives about planning and tactics in the weeks leading up to the attack and that he had been radicalized abroad before coming to the U.S. to participate in a military training program.
Victims of a 2019 shooting at a Florida military base and their families are suing Saudi Arabia, claiming the kingdom knew the gunman had been radicalized and that it could have prevented the killings.

him when he was in the unitedte states. as you said, f 853 saudi nations in the united states who are taking military training right now. lieutenant alshamrani used a gun, but what if he can use a plane, done something else to inflict even greater carnage than he did? secretary esper is right to call for aan review of the vetting programs. it plainly has some defects. if this individual was allowed into the united states, he was here for almost two years, engaged in some pretty sketchy activities in the country, and he went to get a gun.n laura: by the way, here is a cnn on the president s reaction to that pensacola shooting. prwatch. the new york times wrote a piece saying this is just odd, the president s first instinct appeared to be to defend the saudi royal family, because he is providing cover for the saudis. what is most important to trump, is he going to pursue his own personal agenda, wherever that takes them?
