Hear No Terrorism, See No Terrorism, Speak No Terrorism
Taking their lead from the president, the FBI continues to willfully blind itself to domestic Islamist terrorism – all in the name of sensitivity, no doubt. Unfortunately, the same level of sensitivity is not practiced when it comes to informing the American people about the real dangers they face.
JHC, even his father thinks that his son was trained to do this.
Will somebody please explain to me how this asinine policy of talking down verifiable and obvious instances of terrorism (I’m sorry, there is no domestic terrorism, right?) is supposed to help us understand the dangers that exist? I honestly cannot deconstruct the logic here. Bush wants us to make decisions based on the fact that we’re at war with militant Islam, but every time we get hit domestically by that very same militant Islam his government tells us, “nothing to see here. Move along.”?
Ach! It’s enough to make you pine for John McCain – and how drastic is that?!

FBI agent Patrick Kiernan declared to reporters Wednesday he had no reason to believe the random, dispassionately executed murder of five people by 18-year-old Bosnian Muslim immigrant Sulejman Talovic Monday night had anything to do with Islamic terrorism, calling it "just unexplainable."No reason to believe that... except for the fact that he was a Muslim man between the ages of 16 and 40, and murdered five Americans.
