On Christmas Day, Dec. 25th of 2009, an “alleged” Muslim terrorist tried to set off a bomb and bring down a passenger jet in an attempt to murder more than 250 people over Detroit, Michigan. Details of the event became clear faster than the response from the government. In fact it took three days for an official statement from the President, which tied the effort to a lone extremist. (wouldn’t want to rile up any sentiment among the followers of the ‘Religion of Hypersensitivity’ I suppose). I don’t need to make any link to Islamic advocacy groups criticizing the terrorism attempt because they haven’t!
Subsequent news reports have tied the alleged suspect in the attempted bombing to al Qaeda and have reported that US intelligence was aware of the ‘attacker’ before the event. The criticism of both the Administration and the intelligence community began to roil across the internet and news media.
Then, on Dec. 29th, a panicked report of someone loose with a gun shuts down the Capitol for hours.
Given the above connections I could not help but paronoically think that the O administration might have contrived the “capitol shooter” to deflect criticism of the Administration’s handling of a real terrorist event. After all, we have recently seen DHS call attention to “right wing extremists” being a threat and equating Islamic extremism with Right Wing extremism.
Sorry, but I think a few nuts running amok in Western society are not near the concern that millions of radicalized Islamists should be.
