They look pretty white to me...
Anyways, if they had a picture of a brown guy putting a package down, no, they wouldn't be looking for two white guys. The fact of the matter is, however, that they had nothing on this guy other than he was a Saudi Arabian with burns. Like I said, look for the brown guy. Quote:They look pretty white to me...

Who cares if they were White, Brown, Black, Yellow or Red. The bombers as I correctly predicted were Islamic Fundamentalist Jihadis.

No one fucking cares. No one has said they were jihadist. They were Muslim. That is all we fucking know. One is in custody, so why don't we wait before we jump on the crazy train.

To see that a terrorist is Muslim and then assume, without any evidence at all, that they committed these acts in the name of Islam, is highly illogical.
We don't know why they committed these acts. They don't even seem to be affiliated with any Islamic terrorist groups. Heck, one of them apparently wanted to become a member of the American Olympic boxing team. Let's get the facts straight before we start jumping to conclusions, hmm?
Right on the nail.
There was also a very broad and comprehensive analysis on the subject of terrorism that was presented in a book titled, "Dying to Win: The Strategic Logic of Suicide Terrorism," by Robert Rape, and there is also a lecture on this on Youtube, in which the author provides a collection of many different facts and data about terrorist attacks that occurred around the world from 1980 to 2003.
The conclusion of the book is that most of the acts of terrorism around the world, both past and present, are clearly not carried out by Muslims.
Quote:The data show that there is little connection between suicide terrorism and Islamic fundamentalism, or any one of the world’s religions. In fact, the leading instigators of suicide attacks are the Tamil Tigers in Sri Lanka, a Marxist-Leninist group whose members are from Hindu families but who are adamantly opposed to religion. This group committed 76 of the 315 incidents, more suicide attacks than Hamas.

And yes, never jump to conclusions.

It was reported on CNN tonight during the standoff that US authorities had received reports the older brother had ties to extremist organizations. He was investigated and dismissed as not a threat. It was also reported that he spent 6 months in Chechnya last year. He might have ties to the separatist movement over there.
Having said that I am interested in seeing how the government treats the younger brother now that they have him in custody. He is naturalized US citizen entitled to certain rights under the law. Does he get a lawyer, or does he get shipped off to some military brig to be interrogated? Your move Mr. President.

I can't believe someone actually said, "They look brown." lols for the day = complete.
I love your posts, Rayaan, but I can't get over the fact that the man's surname is rape. That is fucking unfortunate.

If he's a US citizen, he'd better be treated like a US citizen.
"Well, evolution is a theory. It is also a fact. And facts and theories are different things, not rungs in a hierarchy of increasing certainty. Facts are the world's data. Theories are structures of ideas that explain and interpret facts. Facts don't go away when scientists debate rival theories to explain them. Einstein's theory of gravitation replaced Newton's in this century, but apples didn't suspend themselves in midair, pending the outcome. And humans evolved from ape- like ancestors whether they did so by Darwin's proposed mechanism or by some other yet to be discovered."

I almost hope he is some hardened douchebag. In my mind, I keep picturing this terrified kid who was brainwashed into doing this and acted out of fear and it bugs me. I hope it turns out that he is a dick because I keep thinking of him like another victim and I don't want there to be one. I can't help it and I don't know why I'm doing it. It is probably because 19 looks so young to me now that I'm getting on in age. It's like looking at a little kid. (Don't tell the Bostonians. They'll hate me.) That being said, allowing yourself to be pulled into something like this is probably crime enough to have all of that coming to you. I just think of how many years he could have had to be a free person that he completely squandered. If he had not done this, he could have saved those people and himself.
