The government and media are starting to suggest that the sniper is a Middle Eastern terrorist, but it's quite possible that he's a domestic nut. On the other hand, the anthrax mailer is generally thought to have been a domestic nut, but he was very likely a Middle Eastern terrorist.
This shouldn't be interpreted as an opinion on the sniper; there isn't enough evidence yet in my view even to reach a tentative conclusion as to whether it's a domestic nut or a foreign terrorist.
Concur.
