Mateen Interviewed by the FBI Twice, Had Been On Terrorist Watch List, Shares Name with FBI Informant in Another Florida Terrorism Case

Mateen (more on the name in a minute) was suspected of being a terrorist and had contact with a suicide bomber… Despite these factors, he was taken off the terrorist watch list and issued a security guard license.
Fascinating.
Mateen was a mentally ill cop poser (see the image below) with multiple contacts with the FBI.
Now read this piece in the New Yorker about the FBI manufacturing terrorism cases:

But Michael German, a former F.B.I. agent who researches national security law at New York University's Brennan Center for Justice, told the Times, "They're manufacturing terrorism cases." In too many instances, he said, "these people are five steps away from being a danger to the United States."

In the same article, we learn that there was an FBI informant named David Mahmood Siddiqui in another Florida terrorist case:

This is not the first time that the F.B.I. has attracted criticism from national-security experts and civil-liberties groups for generating terrorism cases through sting operations and confidential informants. In "The Imam's Curse," published in September, I reported on a Florida family that was accused of providing "material support" to terrorists. In that case, a father, Hafiz Khan, and two of his sons were arrested. The charges against the sons were eventually dropped, but Hafiz Khan was convicted and sentenced to twenty-five years in prison. At Khan's trial, his lawyer, Khurrum Wahid, questioned the reliability of the key informant in the case, David Mahmood Siddiqui. Wahid accused Siddiqui, who'd had periods of unemployment, of lying to authorities because his work as a confidential informant was lucrative. For his role in the case, Siddiqui had received a hundred and twenty-six thousand dollars, plus expenses. But in a subsequent interview with the Associated Press, Siddiqui stood by his testimony and motives: "I did it for the love of my country, not for money."

Several years ago, our lone wolf shooter, Mateen, changed his name.
It turns out the he added Mateen to his original name, which was Omar Mir Seddique.
According to Wikipedia, Seddique is another English spelling of Siddiqui.
Reuters notes:

In an interview with NBC News on Sunday, Seddique Mateen, also known as Mir Siddique, said his son's rampage had "nothing to do with religion."

What are the odds that an FBI informant in a Florida terrorist case shares the same last name as the perpetrator of the worst mass shooting in U.S. historyalso in Floridaa lone wolf cop poser with multiple acknowledged contacts with the FBI, who was formerly listed on the terrorist watch list and associated with a suicide bomber… while holding a valid security guard license?

Coincidences.
