Terror Suspect on No-Fly List Granted School Bus Driver’s License

Amir Meshal, unlike Samir Khan, was placed on a no-fly list.

He is under scrutiny from federal authorities for activities helping to recruit young people for terror groups. So the state of Minnesota gave him a school bus driver’s license.

Amir Meshal was also banned from attending a local mosque in 2014, which said it “does not tolerate any advocacy or recruitment or extremism on its premises.”

From CBS:

He’s also been placed on a U.S. government “no-fly” list.
Documents obtained from the Department of Homeland Security by WCCO-TV say Meshal “is an individual who represents a threat of engaging in or conducting a violent act of terrorism.”

But in Minnesota, Meshal obtained a commercial trucker’s license on August 3, and got a school bus driver’s license on September 9, after passing a background check. Vetting is an art in Minnesota.
Meshal has never been charged with a crime, and he says he has never been told exactly why he’s on the no fly list.

The American Civil Liberties Union is suing the government, which it said extracted information from Meshal under torture.

So Amir Meshal recruits young people to jihad, is banned from a mosque for being too radical, gets placed on a no-fly list and Minnesota says “This guy will be an excellent bus driver for young people.”
