Teenage Muslim Clock Builder’s Disturbing Past Revealed
If you’ve been paying attention to the story of Ahmed Mohamed then you know everything isn’t what it seems.
Apparently the “clock” he brought in wasn’t really anything he created on his own. Multiple electronics tinkerers have debunked the idea he created the clock on his own, showing how all he had done was disassemble an LED clock and put it in a suit case.
It’s also been revealed his Dad had once been a candidate for the Sudanese Presidency, which is rather curious…
And then there are the comments from his classmate and his previous principal, all of who indicate a troubled teen who wasn’t just tinkering for the fun of it.

The Dallas Morning News described Mohamed as having “racked up weeks of suspension” and pranking the “classroom projector.” His former Sam Houston Middle School 7th grade Texas History teacher, Ralph Kubiak, admitted that Mohamed’s First Amendment appeal when trying to wiggle out of trouble, although clever, backfired. The principal doled out Saturday detention.
Retired, Kubiak admits a fondness for Mohamed yet dubbed him a “weird little kid” who could either wind up the CEO of a company or “head of a gang.” Kubiak recalls a chatty budding clockmeister. “He just went on and on.” Mohamed learned English as a second language while in middle school. Kubiak said once Mohamed mastered it, “he had a habit of overusing it — trying to impress classmates with a nonstop stream of chatter, teachers said, and often annoying them instead.”
Talking too much is not a crime but the Texas Education Code gives school districts the latitude to refer students for punishment on “discretionary” offenses that generally include use of profanity, failure to turn in work, or behavior that teachers label “disruptive.” The problem is, “disruptive” is a discretionary term in today’s choke-hold-compliance-seeking times.
“While [Mohamed’s] discipline record is confidential and his father didn’t want to discuss it, the file was thick by some accounts,” the Dallas Morning News noted. The Sudanese-American sensation du jour said he was suspended for several weeks during sixth grade.
“Kids are kids,” said Anthony Bond, a Mohamed family friend and vocal Irving activist about a middle school incident where Ahmed and his cousin got busted for blowing soap bubbles in the bathroom. Bond, founder of the local NAACP, insisted the school overreacted. “He was a little boy in a new environment, and they were acting out.”
During an eighth grade fracas, Bond intervened, writing a letter to the Irving Independent School District (ISD) superintendent, school board president and other officials, protesting Ahmed’s suspension as wrongful. He claimed this was self-defense during a hallway fight.
It’s actually really hard to tell what’s going on here.
If anything it looks like the entire event was a charade invented to make the school and the own of Irving, Texas look bad.
Today’s liberal obsession agains Islamophobia seems to forget the vast majority of terroristic action that takes place globally is usually the responsibility of Muslims Ahmed’s age.
And it looks like he and his family are trying to do something that allows he and his Islamic brethren to have a free pass.

This kid is disruptive and needs some further detention. Minors do not have the same rights as do adults.
