Americans were initially told the shooter near the White House was just an “Afghan national.”
But new reporting paints a far more alarming picture.
The Suspect
Rahmanullah Lakanwal, 29, wasn’t just any Afghan migrant.
According to multiple outlets, he was a highly trained veteran of Afghanistan’s elite Commando Corps, fighting alongside U.S. Special Forces in Kandahar for over a decade.
Reports of CIA-Linked Background
Several reports now claim Lakanwal was part of the CIA-backed Kandahar Strike Force (NDS-03) - a covert paramilitary unit described as one of the most lethal and secretive forces of the Afghan war.
Public reporting says this unit reportedly carried out:
• night raids
• counterterror missions
• targeted operations on Taliban and al-Qaeda
• intelligence-driven strikes outside the Afghan chain of command
Confirmed U.S. Government Ties
Fox News and other outlets report Lakanwal had worked with multiple U.S. agencies during the war.
Former CIA Director John Ratcliffe confirmed publicly:
“Lakanwal worked with the U.S. government, including the CIA…
He should never have been brought into the United States.”
How He Entered the U.S.
According to NBC News and other sources:
• Lakanwal was granted a Special Immigrant Visa (SIV) in 2021 during the chaotic withdrawal
• He later received asylum
• He had been living in Washington State
• He has a wife and five sons
• His relatives had not heard from him in months
The Attack
At 2:15 PM, Lakanwal allegedly ambushed two unarmed West Virginia National Guardsmen near the White House while reportedly shouting the Islamic war cry - “Allahu Akbar.”
Both soldiers remain in critical condition.
A Concerning New Data Point
Public Google Trends data - visible to anyone - shows a spike in searches for his name in the DC region HOURS before the attack:
This does not prove foreknowledge, but it raises serious questions and deserves investigation.
Congress should subpoena the IP data to determine whether this was coincidence or something more.
The Questions Everyone Is Asking
If the suspect was:
• trained by U.S. forces
• tied to a covert CIA-linked strike force
• admitted through a rushed SIV pipeline
• known to intelligence services
…how did he end up shooting American soldiers outside the White House?
And why was someone with this background not being monitored?
Additional Concern Being Raised by Commentators
Where are the rest of the QSF/KSF members who entered the U.S. under the same SIV pipeline?
Who approved them?
Who vetted them?
Who is tracking them now?
These individuals were not ordinary refugees; they were part of an intelligence - linked force.
Public commentators are calling for full oversight of how many were admitted, where they are now, and what monitoring - if any - occurred afterward.
America Needs the Full Truth
This is no longer a simple story of “an Afghan Muslim migrant committing an attack.”
Based on what is emerging, this case now involves:
• alleged CIA-linked units
• Special Forces training
• U.S.-issued visa protections
• a rushed post-withdrawal intake system
• unusual online activity hours before the attack
