In addition, in 2012, Hussein was arrested for six months for hacking into the personal mail of Tony Blair.
After shooting in Texas Hussein he wrote in a tweet: “Shooting … discovered two of our brothers.” “People believed in vain that Texas will not reach them until the IG fighters” – said Hussein.
In addition, over one and a half weeks before the incident, another Islamist Mohamed Abdullahi Hassan, actually proanonsiroval attack He wrote: “Brothers, responsible for the attack on Charlie Hebdo, did the trick. Now all of our brothers in the United States. ”

In Islam, any depiction of the prophet Muhammad is unacceptable, and caricatures of him are perceived by radical Islamists as an insult. In January 2015 Islamists gunned down 12 people in the edition of the French magazine Charlie Hebdo, which published cartoons of the Prophet Mohammed.

One version of the murder of politician Boris Nemtsov in Moscow connected with the support of the magazine Charlie Hebdo.
The head of the expert portal American Studies.org Areg Galstyan said that the incident in Texas can have serious consequences, as evidenced by the Islamists of the vulnerability of the Christian states.
«Texas is considered a stronghold of Christianity and Protestantism. If it had happened in Michigan, where a lot of Muslims, resonance and symbolism were not so strong. And so, it turns out, it is double and even triple signal LIH Americans, who tend to think that they live in the safest country: those who cut their heads journalists already near their home, “- said Galstyan.
He added that in order to mitigate the situation, official Washington is likely to write off the occasional attack on bandits.
«This can be done for several reasons: first, to prevent the surge of anti-Islamic sentiment, which had been in France and in Europe. And secondly, in order not to destroy the ranking Democrat, which is already falling, “- said Galstyan.
At the same time, he noted that the true initiators of the attack will be to further understand the behavior of the United States.
«If LIH, the United States will toughen its actions in Iraq, begin to soften relations with Turkey, to, for example, can come Biden and Kerry,” – said the expert.
At the same time, he stressed that, if confirmed LIH participate in a shootout in Texas, the United States will have to discuss this incident with Qatar, without which, according to Galstyan, LIH would never have gone to such actions in the United States.
However, the Middle East analyst Theodore Karasik, commenting on the “Gazeta.ru” incident in the United States, expressed his confidence that the attack on the competition of cartoons – the handiwork of “lone wolves” from among the followers of LIH.
Asked whether an event to bring together Russia and the United States in the joint struggle with LIH, Karasik said that the two countries’ co-operate in the fight against terrorism, despite sharp differences on the issue of Ukraine. ” At the same time, the expert adds that “no matter how sad to realize cooperation between the US and Russia to a real fight with LIH would be possible if the victims of the terrorist attacks, and will be Russian and Americans.”
