Whatever is the best answer for this crime POLITICALLY will be the one we get. It will serve the Emperor better if it’s a right wing terror attack so THAT my friends is what the MSM will tell you and the OFFICIAL White House press release will tell you , truth be dammed.
I think he would have done so.
Thanks for the ping.
Barry’s outreach charm tour of foreign muslim communities is paying off dividends. After coddling the underpants bomber we’re back to complacency.

Thanks—I missed that gem.....
Kristinn,

The System Worked Again!
(dumb luck. Been itching to say that all morning)
Now try and say its “not terrorism” Janet Nappy.
lol
That Youtube Channel was created a day or two before the attempt, for the purpose of claiming responsibility. I guess whether it succeeds or not they wanted us to know what group did it.
Terrorism needs terror, whether it blows or just scares the crap out of people.
Well, there’s a “line” that I know if you cross, a nuclear response at the perpetrating government would be considered justified. The question here is how far “back” from that line can you go and perhaps expect a nuclear response. And also, can you even identify a “perpetrating government” to do so for that kind of response?
While I can say I am assured that “nuke for nuke” response would happen (with some perpetrating government), I don’t know how far “back” and “before” that line — that you would get “nuke for something else”.
AND, if it did happen (let’s say for that plane in DC, you get a nuclear response) — it wouldn’t be Mecca, which is what the poster was saying. If such a nuclear response were to be considered justified in that hypothetical example — it would be something directed at the Taliban and their government and whatever power base that they had.
The more you get into something like these “hypotheticals” and “pushing the line back” further away from “nuke for nuke” response — the nuttier the whole thing becomes in a discussion anyway...
Certainly not against his buddies in Pokistan. I wouldn’t be surprised if he didn’t know about it.
Well, especially since it was pre-recorded, which obviously means they knew about this in advance and it was not bumbling right wingers, as MSNBC tried to suggest.
“This video has been removed due to terms of use violation.”
” ...I have come here to seek a new beginning between the United States and Muslims around the world; one based upon mutual interest and mutual respect; and one based upon the truth that America and Islam are not exclusive, and need not be in competition. Instead, they overlap, and share common principles - principles of justice and progress; tolerance and the dignity of all human beings...”

Sooo, hows that working out for ya Bambi?
Thanks for the update.
“.....why would the guy be bragging about a failed bomb?....”
I believe the reason they went ahead and released the video in spite of the failed attempt was to show they have the ability to reach us. Terrorism is for the purpose to terrorize, and letting us know they can reach us, they can touch us with proof positive in our own media is terrorizing.
In a sense they did succeed.
Now let’s see what the Zero’s next move will be.
