Ya, the San Bernardino attack was very similar to the Paris attack. I can’t believe the very subject of the article, asking if it could happen here, when it already has.
Yeah, right. More Americans were killed on 9/11 then were killed in Paris.
Maybe the fine distinction the article is making is that the terror attacks in USA have not been committed by refugees... per se! San Bernadino was a green card immigrant and a citizen (or some such?); 9/11 was students and visitors on expired visas; Boston marathon was some other official status (which is irrelevant as both Russia and Saudi Arabia pre-advised the USA of those specific brothers high-risk status); LAX was on a visa.
So what could we have to fear from muslims if they are just sweet, poor, hungry REFUGEES!?! That makes it all OK.
That is the way these ivory tower psuedo-intellectuals fool themselves and try to fool us. Notice the organizations with which they are affiliated. The “talking head” types use artificial constructs, see. They create a separate reality with self-contained logic you cannot contradict unless you know what is MISSING from it.
