Walks Like a Duck in San Bernardino

Posted by Tina

ISIS has claimed responsibility for the San Bernardio terror attack today: “‘Two followers of Islamic State attacked several days ago a center in San Bernardino in California,’ the group’s daily broadcast al-Bayan said.”

The FBI’s “terrorist” investigation continues but if a report yesterday is accurate, I’m struck by a similarity to the Benghazi investigation. Apparently journalists wee allowed to climb all over the bomb factory home of the newly wed terrorists, compromising the area.

Our President responded from the same script referring to the victims (Or was it the shooters) as “the kills”: “‘We know that the kills in San Bernardino used military-style assault weapons – weapons of war – to kill as many people as they could,’ he said. ‘It’s another tragic reminder that here in America it’s way too easy for dangerous people to get their hands on a gun.‘.”..He added: ‘Right now, people on the No-Fly list can walk into a store and buy a gun. That is insane. ‘If you’re too dangerous to board a plane, you’re too dangerous, by definition, to buy a gun.’

Weapons of war? Wow…if he’s talking about changing our gun laws Obama is pretty quick to use the big bad words. If he’s talking about further restricting the rights of law abiding citizens he’s all in, baby! But does the President really imagine that shaming the American people about our gun laws should be his highest priority at this time? More to the point…If he really believes no-fly laws need “tweaking” couldn’t he do that with an executive order? I mean, what’s the problem? He’s bypassed the legislative process before. This is a high priority situation, an emergency situation…a time of WAR.

Meanwhile…

David Bowdich, assistant director of the FBI’s Los Angeles office, said on Friday that the shooters attempted to destroy evidence, including crushing two cell phones and discarding them in a trash can. The FBI chief also had established that there were ‘telephonic connections’ between the couple and other people of interest in FBI probes.

Must we play this silly game? The profile and evidence point to terrorism associated with al Qaeda and ISIS. Does it matter that this couple had “official ties” to these terror organizations. Obviously they were inspired by them to do evil acts in furtherance of their war on the West.

It’s a duck!

    I wonder if the Fed official who first used the word “terrorism” regarding San Berdoo still has a job since that word is a no-no in the Obumble vocabulary . . . . . .

  2. Dewey says:

    Terrorist? The missing word when Right wing Christians commit mass murder?

  3. Pie Guevara says:

    I am more fearful of Obama’s and the left’s response to ISIS than ISIS.

    Tet Again?

    Islamic Tet?

    I arrived in Vietnam in the summer of 1968, just after the famous Tet Offensive had been mostly crushed by US forces.

    Militarily, Tet was a disaster for the Communists. Their losses were hideous. They didn’t care! The fact that they were supposedly mostly defeated, yet were still able to mount a nation-wide, coordinated, and surprising military action was a psychological blow severe enough to get US General Westmoreland relieved of his command, and indeed, sounded the death knell for the entire LBJ Administration!

    We are now seeing the same strategy being played-out by ISIS in Western Europe, UK, and the USA!

    In 1968 the Viet Cong managed to infiltrate 80k fighters into cities throughout the south, all ready to strike at the same time. Weapons were smuggled in and pre-staged. This all happened under the noses of US intelligence. But, the micro-managing LBJ Administration would not listen to any information that did not support its self-aggrandizing agenda, so all contrary intelligence, no matter how credible, was ignored.

    Sound familiar?

    When Tet began, uninformed and unprepared local forces were flabbergasted. Many were overwhelmed.

    Today, again under the noses of western intelligence, ISIS fighters (masquerading as “refugees”) are currently being infiltrated into Western Europe, and their numbers dwarf those of the Tet era! They’ve incontrovertibly demonstrated their ability to plan well, execute well, organize will, and coordinate well, far from the “JV Team” of BHO’s oblivious liberal fantasy.

    The theoretical, “this could happen” has been displaced with “this has happened and will continue to happen.”

    Best advice:

    Police and hospitals will be overwhelmed! The unarmed and otherwise unprepared will perish, as we’ve seen repeatedly.

    Keep your equipment, training, and practice up to date.

    Decide on a minimum personal load-out and always carry it. Pistol(s), spare magazines(s), flashlight(s), knife(s), trauma kit.

    Be alert. Extend your awareness as far as you can. Know what tactics terrorists are using this week. Examine everything with a clear eye.

    What can one man with a pistol do?

    Remember Garland, TX?

    Meanwhile, liberal politicians here are interested only in protecting themselves. As an example, Barbara Boxer (Democrat, of course) said today,

    “‘Sensible’ gun laws work. We’ve proven it in California!”

    In view of San Bernardino, she has a curious definition of “proof!”

    Is it just me, or are these dithering leftist nincompoops becoming increasingly delusional under the stress of real violence?

    “Ineptocracy: (in-ep-toc’-ra-cy) – a system of ‘government,’ where the least capable to lead are elected by the willfully unproductive and non-contributing, and where members of society least likely to sustain themselves, succeed, nor practice personal decency and honesty are relentlessly rewarded with goods and services paid for by the confiscated wealth of an ever-diminishing number of honorable and principled producers.”

    Life is interesting. Isn’t it ironic that the American men that so many lefties spit on when they returned from Vietnam will be the ones most prepared and trained to protect this nation at home. Bless ’em all!

    Thanks RHT447.

  6. Libby says:

    RHT, you really devastated?

    That’s kinda sad. I think ISIS just rendered itself kinda pathetic, trying to take credit for this.

  7. Libby says:

    Pie, I’m just a realistic evaluator of threat. We got a lot of crazy fundamentalists in this country. A whole lot. And all of them with obscenely easy access to weaponry.

    Still, a rational person does not perceive an existential threat, personally, or to the country. Unhappily, we also got a whole lot of irrational people in this country (in fact, the categories overlap to a worrying degree).

    The Prezzy’s address did not comfort you?

  8. Tina says:

    “We got a lot of crazy fundamentalists in this country.”

    The most deadly are leftist animal rights people and eco-terrorists according to the FBI. Crazy people don’t give a rip about laws. Obviously!

    “a rational person does not perceive an existential threat”

    Which is why all those people in San Bernardino are injured and dead. If we took the threat from “lone wolf,” “homegrown,” terrorists a bit more seriously someone in that room might have been armed and able to save some of those lives.

    A little more awareness would serve the people well.

  9. Libby says:

    Nice try, Tina.

    But the parallels between the Islamic and Christian Right cannot be ignored. That, this week, we are dealing with the Islamic Right is a point of little consequence.

  10. Tina says:

    Sorry Libby you’re going to have to do better than vague generalized comments if you’re going to demonstrate an equivalence in our times. None of us has control over ancient history but “we” are dealing with problems today that we can talk about.

    So elaborate. I’d like a side by side analysis that compares the two and shows “parallels between the Islamic and Christian Right” that are significant enough to mount a military style action against those evil Christians. You can stat with their goals and ambitions and work from there.

    Can’t wait.
