CNN Analyst Peter Bergen: Bombings in Boston Were 'Likely Right-Wingers'
Pundit Press ^ | 4/15/13 | Aurelius

Posted on 04/15/2013 1:49:51 PM PDT by therightliveswithus

On CNN, Peter Bergen stated that the terrorist bombings in Boston was "likely right-wing" extremists.

Here's the quote: "One of the things that I'd be looking at, once the device, if it is a device, is found, what kind of explosives were used. If it, for instance, if it was hydrogen peroxide, sort of a signature of al Qaeda. If it was more conventional explosives, which are much harder to get hold of now, it might be some other kind of right wing extremists...

"We've also seen other extremist groups, right wing groups, attacking, for instance, trying to attack the Martin Luther King parade."

Elsewhere, conspiracy theorists were happy to pin the explosions on conservatives...

F CNN & Peter Bergen. I hope they keep it up - every time they shoot their ignorant pie holes off like this they lose viewers.

This has all the fingerprints of an Islamofacist bombing.

Even if Al Qaeda claims credit the MSM will blame it on a right-wing “climate of hate” and “Islamophobia.”
The avalanche is coming...

Like the Unibomber??? That LEFT wing environmentalist extremist?? That Leftist, Al Gore admirer who decided to kill people with bombs because we were killing his planet?

Thank you Peter Bergan you partisan, propaganda spewing political hack pretending to be a journalist. Yea, you are ‘objective’ all right, your biggest fan right now is the extremist left which now has cover thanks to your jumping to conclusions before the facts.

Dam ideologues pretending to be journalists.

Elsewhere, conspiracy theorists(and the LSM) were happy to pin the explosions on conservatives.

Funny how they are not held accountable for their premature emissions. Yet, should in the very unlikely event it was some kind of doing from the Right or some reclusive suicidal nut ball, they would probably get a ticker tape parade.

What Bergen meant to say was a Catholic, Evangelical, or Jew. You know, a Terrorist.

Well, obviously the bomber has to be an evil rightwing racist sexist fascist bigot homophobe since Boston is a liberal city and the Boston Marathon is a liberal event and typically marathoners are either skinny liberal men or nonmenstruating feminists or liberal gay activists and who all shop at Whole Foods afterward while cheering the death of Margaret Thatcher.

Too easy.

Libs disappointed yet again that they can't pin a bombing on a right winger. It's been slim pickings since Tim McVey who they characterized as right wing.

Muneer Awad thanks Peter Bergen for downplaying the Muslim Brotherhood!

Listen to this article. Powered by Odiogo.com

Wow! Talk about being a shill for an Islamic supremacist group. Last night on CNN’s Piers Morgan show Peter Bergen was briefly questioned about the danger of the Muslim Brotherhood. Muneer Awad, the director of CAIR Oklahoma then tweeted a thanks to him and called critics fear-mongers. Keep in mind, Bergen was ONLY asked about the Muslim Brotherhood.

PETER BERGEN, CNN NATIONAL SECURITY ANALYST: Well, I don’t think they’re very dangerous at all, piers. You know, this is a group that’s been around since the 1920s, certainly when it was founded in opposition to the British and certainly it had a terrorist ring in the 1950s, but over time, this is a group that is increasingly just engaged in normal politics.
