Whoa: Is American jihadist in Somalia tweeting his final moments?

For the past year or so, radical Islamist group al-Shabab has been in hot pursuit of former member Omar Hammami, an Alabama-born jihadist.

Today, a Twitter account that authorities believe is Hammami’s sent out a series of tweets suggesting al-Shabab may have finally caught up with him:

After the failed assassination attempt i woke in the morning to hear that i was surrounded. We ran to a hole behind the house and waited

Eventually they sent two guys to negotiate. They said u said 1) that az is taghut 2) that 2 bros that accidentally blew up are in hell

— abu m (@abumamerican) April 29, 2013

3) that i was sorry abt apostates killed in court bombing. They said drop guns &go to court or prepare 4 war. We said we want court w/ guns

— abu m (@abumamerican) April 29, 2013

They agreed but we thought it was a trick.Once we reached an open place they said drop guns. We told the “court” that we didnt agree 2 that

— abu m (@abumamerican) April 29, 2013

The court accepted our shari proofs &our reason 4 fear so shhabab droped the case &said go home.We asked if theyd attack us they said yes

— abu m (@abumamerican) April 29, 2013

We were allowed to go home bcuz most of the army refused to fight us. We went to the forest instead but they still followed.

— abu m (@abumamerican) April 29, 2013

We were forced to fight in self defense &killed 3 and wounded others w/no losses. The main amir who wanted 2 fight us was from the killed

— abu m (@abumamerican) April 29, 2013

They now have to bring outside forces who dont know why they are fighting to track us in the forest. They are losing patience

— abu m (@abumamerican) April 29, 2013

We called 4 shariah &accepted many things 2 bring peace but they said we are an armed renegade group even if az is our leader &we dont fight

— abu m (@abumamerican) April 29, 2013

They raided our houses &took our stuff and said they found condoms, alcohol, and documents. Their goal is to kill us regardless of reason

— abu m (@abumamerican) April 29, 2013

Its culmination of full faceted dime warfare against those who speak truth.Boycott,tribe politics,assassination,char assass, mil attack

— abu m (@abumamerican) April 29, 2013

People r with us but till now the wars extremely unbalanced bcuz we blew them up &they found a hoard of explosives. Even if we die weve won

— abu m (@abumamerican) April 29, 2013

May not find another chance to tweet but just remember what we said and what we stood for. God kept me alive to deliver the mssg 2 the umah

— abu m (@abumamerican) April 29, 2013

That’s Hammami’s most recent tweet. Will we ever find out what “the mssg” is?

.@abumamerican is live-tweeting what cld be his own impending death. Say what you will about violent jihadism, but it’s riveting stuff.

— Armin Rosen (@ArminRosen) April 29, 2013

For the record, while Hammami is no longer with al-Shabab, he still clings bitterly to the America-hating, terroristic principles of jihadism.

@prupaine I find myself unmoved. Because jihadist. @abumamerican @adamserwer

— RB (@RBPundit) April 29, 2013

Just sayin’. I don’t give a damn about some American jihadist possibly getting offed by rival jihadists. Seriously. He chose that life.

— RB (@RBPundit) April 29, 2013

Yep.
