If there is a single truth about Magic, it is that nothing on earth so efficiently evades it.

According to a report in the New York Times, the dead terrorist's brother-in-law had this explanation for the attack:

{H}e was angry that the world pictures Islam as a violent religion. How would anyone get such an idea? But he sure proved them wrong, didn't he? |

Not if they can use the evidence of what he said before the warning was given it isn't.
FBI's latest entrapped patsy, Abdella Ahmad Tounisi, a U.S. citizen, attempted to join Al Qaeda's Syrian franchise, Jabhat al-Nusra. The irony is, as Tounisi is charged with attempting to provide material support to a foreign terrorist organization, the US State Department has announced an additional $123 million in military aid to these very same terrorists. System going well.

They better get the stories straight before they go to court.
First they said it was a shoot out at the boat, now they are saying he didn't have a gun. "WASHINGTON (AP) — Two U.S. officials say the surviving suspect in the Boston bombings was unarmed when police captured him hiding inside a boat in a neighborhood back yard." "Authorities originally said they had exchanged gunfire for more than one hour Friday evening before they were able to subdue him." "The officials tell The Associated Press that no gun was found in the boat. Boston Police Commissioner Ed Davis said earlier that shots were fired from inside the boat." Tom

I don't like when they find ways around things. It makes me oogy. I am all for this guy taking all the punishment the law provides for. But the WAY it provides for it. Not sneaky.

If our government could possibly just redefine him as whatever then who can't they do that to? I am not being paranoid it is an honest question. An honest concern. For me, as I am sure it is with many of my fellow Americans, it's about keeping America safe. Outside of the US, it's a very dangerous world with some very serious threats and in many parts of the globe, people don't know if they are going to live to see the next day. We have it pretty easy and good compared to many parts of the world. I want to keep it that way and that means keeping America safe from these threats that are present around the globe. Some of my views were formed after learning of the sometimes complex nature and the seriousness of the threats we face as Americans after serving some time overseas in the National Guard. Part of dealing with these threats is setting boundaries, such as if you travel overseas as a private citizen and receive training from terrorist organizations waging war against America, you are no longer an American but are now the enemy and it's open season on you. Seems like that is at least what one of these two Chechens did which was why I felt "enemy combatant" designation was a fair designation for these two. People need to know that their are boundaries to contend with when you have American citizenship and if one wishes to keep American citizenship and the rights, privileges and protections that come with American citizenship. As far as Danny sounding like a liberal, many conservatives have a "shadow" to themselves which is liberal, just as many liberals have a "shadow" of themselves which is conservative. Perhaps the discussion has brought out our shadows. I have read about some of these things in Jungian psychology. I regard myself as a liberal, yet in this particular case, I came across as strong conservative in my views on how best to handle this case. Just a thought to throw in the discussion given some years ago I read some Jungian psychology.

Agreed GM that people are always a mixture of opposites to varying degrees. I think the most interesting and surprising thing I've learned about human nature as I get older is that no one quality or characteristic in a person absolutely predicts the presence or absence of any other particular quality or characteristic. We are not neat little packages, though we act as if we can classify others. But that is strictly for our own sense of security.

It is very sad, indeed, Pakar. But if you close your eyes, you won't see anything. And if you willfully prevent yourself and others from recognizing the problem, you will never solve it.

Thank you, Eric Holder:
Quote:
BOSTON (AP) - The surviving suspect in the Boston Marathon bombings acknowledged to the FBI his role in the attacks but did so before he was advised of his constitutional right to keep quiet and seek a lawyer, U.S. officials said Wednesday. It may not matter in court, but it surely matters in terms of preventing the next attack miscreants of this ilk are planning to launch. Note that the "public safety" exception to reading a prisoner the Miranda rights statement lasts for 48 hours. There were 32 hours to go for this guy. Quote:
After Tsarnaev was captured on Friday night following a day-long manhunt, U.S. Attorney Carmen Ortiz announced that, for at least 48 hours, Tsarnaev—who had been seriously wounded during the chase—would be interrogated without being informed of his right to remain silent, or his right to be represented by an attorney. |

The complexity of the world is no excuse. The world is no more comex than it was hundreds of years ago. Pseudo intellectual babble to justify acting out of fear is not going to cut it.
When we redefine ourselves out of fear and change our core because it is easier then we cease to be who we arw. At that point I am afraid the bad guys have won. Right is still right. Once we seek to change a man's status based on only convienece we are down a very bad road. You can't imagine all the shades of gray involved in street cop work. Where do the changes end? You have no idea how much easier things are if we just... well you keep adding things. And adding things. I have seen it happen. So the world being complex is no excuse. Price of freedom being eternal vigilance and all that. The price hasn't gone up. The only difference is that we see it in our back yards now. That scares people.

How we are being slowly subjugated:
Quote:
Williams-Sonoma, the (absolutely amazing) kitchen-stuff company, has pulled pressure cookers–which the Tsarnaevs built into bombs–from shelves in Massachusetts. If you want to understand the process of subjugation in slightly more detail, read here. It's also relevant to understanding the significance, to them, of the fact that terrorists live off of the welfare system that exists in the Western democracies they despise. |

The defendant's attorney will argue that the public safety exemption is strictly limited and that there could be no public safety issue because, upon his arrest, the Boston police and FBI basically said, "Go about your business, people. There's no further threat." If I was the judge, I'd side with the defendant and throw any testimony out. Here's a solid explanation from Judge Napolitano. http://foxnewsinsider.com/2013/04/25/nap......as-doing |
