Brad Karger has been
arrested in
connection with the pipe-bombing of a medical research company. Nowhere in the
article to I see the word terrorist or terrorism. I note also that Mr.
Karger was charged last year for attempting to blow up the same building. How
interesting.
How do you suppose the article would have been different if Mr. Karger were of
recent Arab descent or, perish the thought, of Iraqi heritage? Or what if Mr.
Karger were a Palestinian who detonated a pipe bomb somewhere in
Israeli-controlled Gaza?
Similarly, how often do the media describe abortion clinic bombings as terrorist
attacks?
Its all on par with
this
still-under-reported incident. Does this suggest a lack of even-handedness in
the application of anti-terrorist protections? Or does Homeland Security like
to pretend that terrorist threats only originate with non-US citizens or from
outside the country?
Dave!
