So the left wants to minimize the Muslim connection. The younger bomber brother has already admitted it was a religious reason for the attack. But is it meaningless as the left is trying to spin?
If it was a white supremacist that had blown up a black church would it be meaningless? If a Nazi group had blown up a synagogue would it have been a meaningless motive?
I think in these two cases the left would have been yelling until their vocal cords were broken about how the motive did mean something. But when its Muslim it suddenly is not meaningful.
What is it about the left that they so desperately try to protect the Radial Muslims?
Even if she said that, I'd give her pass. Why? B/c when the Newton shooting was going down, she didn't care about his motives either. She focused on what happened, how he got his guns, and what gov't could do to stop that from happening to another school.
That said, I'm also 95% sure that you're distorting or misrepresenting her point. So... links or it didn't happen.
You mean like linking the bombings to the right wing....and wishing it was a white person? Things like that, then I'll agree with you. Were you in any of the threads denouncing any of those?
Wishing it was something and taking it for what it actually is are two separate things.
And nobody knows for sure yet, on either side.
I can see why people would rather it wasn't a foreign Muslim organized plot. Nobody wants to get into another useless, unwinnable war.
However, it doesn't look to me like it's some kind of organized act of aggression. Your opinion may differ and that's fine, hopefully we'll know more as it unfolds.
It would be really, really nice if you linked to what Ms. Maddow actually said or wrote instead of putting your words in her mouth and then attacking those words. Does strawman come to mind?
You are right, it would be better if we knew where people get their information, but I would not be, at all, surprised if she did say it, She is about as left as they get, even left of Matthews. This is why I can not watch MSNBC. It is about the only network I can't stand. We used to watch Matthews a lot, back in the 90s. He has drifted further and further left as the years have gone by and MSNBC doesn't have and contributor to balance out he overly left view.

What about the word "link" do you not understand?
