Below is an article by the staff of the Zionist Organization of America, an organization that I heartily support. They ask why President Obama is silent on the recent terrorist attack in Garland, Texas, one that was planned to equal the Charlie Hebdo attack in Paris. In that vein, they ask many other questions of the president when it comes to Islamic terror.

Fair questions.
The president has work to do. He can't be expected to issue vacuous pronouncements on every crime committed in the United States. Nor are the perps entitled to the attention. It just puffs up the ego of their surviving compatriots.
ReplyDeleteHe routinely makes vacuous pronouncements on certain other crimes committed in the United States (and other topics as well), so why not on an act of terror??
ReplyDeletePossibly because both of the perpetrators were Muslim with one being black, while most if not all of the intended victims must have been pretty white??
Just curious, and just saying.
P.S.--and non-Muslim.
ReplyDeletePossibly he makes pronouncements when he thinks he can improve a difficult situation by doing so.
ReplyDeleteIf you think there aren't a significant number of Americans of African descent who have nasty things to say about Muslims and Islam, you haven't ventured into the east half of DC in the last thirty years.
