The news that the deceased suspect of this morning’s horrific shooting spree at Naval Air Station Pensacola was a Saudi aviation student here to train with the Saudi military ought to serve as a wakeup call for American elected officials.

The suspect appears to have been a student officer with the Saudi Air Force and, while it is unclear right now which U.S. visa he obtained to arrive here, an A-2 visa — described by the U.S. State Department as appropriate for those “traveling to the United States on behalf of [his/her] national government to engage solely in official activities for that government” — is perhaps likely . As The Daily Wire has reported, there are at least ten victims injured, including three dead.
