Terrorism: What's being done about it?!

Today Whalid Phares, a notable Moslem commentator, remarks that he couldn't understand why the administration was afraid to label the San Bernadino massacre a terrorist act. He sited a couple who had a well-planned incident with heavy arms, multiple rigged bombs in their residence, a new mother and husband willing to die for a cause. Makes sense, a purely terrorist act. Now, for a political group (liberals), who love to put labels, generalizations, and name-calling on their political enemies, they are very hesitant to label this tragedy appropriately.
I believe it's a reluctance to say that ISIS or their minions ARE in the US!!
 

Armed Citizens Deter Terrorist Attacks In Detroit, Police Chief Says

More guns, fewer problems. That, at least, is Detroit Police Chief’s James Craig’s view of Detroit and fears about a possible terrorist attack.

While cities around the world are on heightened alert following a devastating ISIS attack in Paris, Detroit’s police chief says he believes the fear that armed citizens would return fire serves as a deterrent for a potential terrorist attack in the rust belt city.​
 
my argument with that...

terrorist attacks.. are suicide runs...
they only want 1 outcome... terror with many deaths... including their own.

so.. public with guns ready to shoot..
but in most cases.. isn't it too late? because it is after the fact?

too late? <NO> cuz an immediate return fire will reduce the sheer amount of casualties and enable a much larger possibility of saving injured lives as well. better to shoot back after only a cpl rounds fired than NO defense and everyone's lives snuffed out. Madd RESPECT & PROPS to the police chiefs taking proper measures to ensure safety. It's a guarantee that there will be fewer friendly fire injuries than Terrorist caused deaths.
 
Ted Cruz Reacts to San Bernardino: Now, More Than Ever, Americans Must Be Armed

Unfortunately, the goal of both President Obama and Hillary Clinton, is to consistently–at every turn–to look to weaken the constitutional rights of American citizens. And in particular, to undermine our constitutional right to keep and bear arms. You don’t get rid of the bad guys by getting rid of our guns. You get rid of the bad guys by using our guns. And, rather than respond to radical Islam and terrorism with a commitment from the president to keep this nation safe–to kill the terrorists–instead, Barack Obama and Hillary Clinton refuse to even utter the words “radical Islamic terrorism.”​
 
"Unfortunately, the goal of both President Obama and Hillary Clinton, is to consistently–at every turn–to look to weaken the constitutional rights of American citizens."

They do this to pander to certain groups in order to earn their votes, the rest of us be d*mned. With their constituents, even if they disagree, they get a free pass from them.

We're in trouble.. and we're gonna get hit from Mexico too cuz ISIS is paying Mexico's President lots of $$ to side with them - my buddy from the Mexican Mafia
 
First Photo of Female San Bernardino Shooter Tashfeen Malik

How Malik purportedly became radicalized enough to post the alleged pledge of allegiance to ISIS and help kill more than a dozen people in a quiet California town is still a mystery.

The official close to the Saudi Arabian government said that Saudi intelligence officials did not have her on any of their watch lists and she did not appear to have any link to extremists in the region. Neither Malik or Farook were on the FBI’s radar in the U.S., officials said.

(photo removed, click link above)
...hypnotized in dangerous quantities that we've yet to grasp.

How many Tashfeen Maliks have we brought in?

...they've been programmed their whole life and their 'purposes' are being fulfilled one by one.

And then...

Loretta Lynch Vows to Prosecute Those Who Use 'Anti-Muslim' Speech That 'Edges Toward Violence'

The day after a horrific shooting spree by what appears to be a radicalized Muslim man and his partner in San Bernardino, California, Attorney General Loretta Lynch pledged to a Muslim advocacy and lobbying group that she would take aggressive action against anyone who used "anti-Muslim rhetoric" that "edges toward violence."​

Obama: Climate change could lead to rise in extremism

President Obama on Friday defended his view that climate change could lead to a rise in violent extremism around the world.​

Gosh, you mean if we fix climate change, all the terrorism problems will just disappear? Where do I sign?!

(also posted at Climate change ?)

BAHAHAHAH!!! You gotta be KIDDING me?! Oh my "F-ing" Gosh!! He's GOTTA be kidding... Right?! :snickers: .. I really don't know the difference between LEFT & RIGHT "Wing" theories/positions, so I wouldn't know where this lands in their mentalities but... back in school we called it "Hot & Bothered": too much heat and ppl were more likely to fight outta discomfort.. This is just.. RIDICULOUS! Lmao. I can't believe Obama is trying to tie Global warming to terrorism
 
Obama says 'we will not be terrorized' after California shooting

U.S. President Barack Obama vowed on Saturday that federal investigators would find out what motivated a married couple in California to shoot and kill 14 people, and he asked Americans to stand united after the attacks.

"We are strong. And we are resilient. And we will not be terrorized," Obama said in his weekly address.​

...pretty confident, considering it took him completely by surprise, it took him half a week to even admit it was terrorism and the terrorists were not under any type of suspicion.
 
wow.. you just cant stop blaming the guy for everything. PS.. he was not part of the sinking of the Titanic.

He is only as good as the people that give him the INFO.
the people getting the INFO are only human!
they can only work within the confines of what is available to them.
 
"Terrorist are angry and mean. Why? I guess there are many reasons but part of it is...
their lives suck.. in a poor country .. with little resources.. and war.. and hunger.. and low education.
they see their lives and ours.. they get jealous of our life style. they get angry. the lock on us as a reason for their situation.
they need to blame somone......."

Sometimes maybe. Didn't apply to multimillionaire, Bin Laden, or this week's San Bernadino terrorist and his lovely wife terrorist who had it better than many in this country. Also, didn't apply to homegrown terrorist Timothy McVeigh, to name a few examples of some high profile ones.

Wow... just wow. He is the leader of the most powerful country on this planet, so I can't help but expect him to have instant access to the most reliable information available. Is that expecting too much?
 
I'm sorry to express my pessimism online:

I think London and San Bernardino are the tip of the iceberg – does anyone really think they're done now? I think we're going to be hit by much more and much worse. And I'm afraid our president, who ran as a 'community organizer' eight years ago, is not capable of grasping the concept of having a true death-seeking enemy right in our backyard. I think such a predicament would be difficult for any president, but especially for Obama.
 
72 DHS Employees on Terrorist Watch List

“I have very low confidence based on empirical data that we’ve got on the Department of Homeland Security. I think we desperately need another set of eyeballs looking at the vetting process,” he said. “That’s vetting that’s being done at major airports where we have a stationary person coming through a facility, and we’re failing 95 percent of the time.”​
 
The ISIS Trail of Death

Since October 10, ISIS and its sympathizers around the world have killed at least 525 people in six attacks in six countries outside its so-called caliphate. American counterterrorism officials say that of the six attacks, three were directed by ISIS from its territory in Syria and Iraq and another two were so-called "announcement" attacks -- local ISIS elements revealing their existence in dramatic fashion. Though one of the two people who carried out the final attack, the massacre in San Bernandino, swore allegiance to ISIS, officials are still determining the extent of any relationship she and her husband might have had with the terror group.​
