Last week, Congressman Peter King of New York, the head of the House Intelligence Committee, told ABC News that US citizens were among those involved in the Nairobi attack. This was later echoed by Kenya’s Foreign secretary Amina Mohammed who said “two or three” American teenagers from “Minnesota and one other place” were thought to be involved. King called al-Shabaab “an extremely deadly organisation – very well trained – and it’s one of the only al-Qaeda affiliates which actively recruited here in the United States.” he said at least 40 to 50 Somali-Americans have gone to Somalia to be trained.
