Malcador Posted September 18, 2016 Share Posted September 18, 2016 Saw the mayor said it was intentional but not linked to terrorism. Not that it wasn't terrorism. Guess he should have said organization as well to be clear. Why has elegance found so little following? Elegance has the disadvantage that hard work is needed to achieve it and a good education to appreciate it. - Edsger Wybe Dijkstra Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
licketysplit Posted September 18, 2016 Share Posted September 18, 2016 Intentionally setting off a bomb in a public place is called terrorism, no matter who does it. NYC mayor saying it's "intentional but not terrorism" is pretty out there. NY governor has overridden that statement and is calling it terrorism now though NYC officials are saying it's an act of terrorism, but with no apparent ties to international terrorism. That's reasonable. As usual, it's the media who's trying to change the language into something more palatable, attacking anyone who's calling it a bomb.

Malcador Posted September 18, 2016 Share Posted September 18, 2016 (edited) So they gave more detail. Have some Somali community members in Minnesota doing a conference to deny they have any involvement with ISIS. Something a bit weird to me that they have to do that Edited September 18, 2016 by Malcador Why has elegance found so little following?

quidproquo Posted September 18, 2016 Share Posted September 18, 2016 Don't see why it's odd for members of a high profile immigrant group in the United States to come out and deny association with a terror group after some of the members of their community have bene involved in terrorism. Makes sense, which is probably why they're doing it. Heard Americans, pon seeing other Americans act poorly, go out of their way to ask the people not to think all Americans act that way. Saw one American almost come to blows with another American for acting like "an ugly American abroad." If you're an American, or a Muslim, or a Christian, it makes sense to distance yourself from people who put a bad light on your country or religion and maybe try to get the people who put your lot in a bad light to desist from doing so.

Volourn Posted September 18, 2016 Share Posted September 18, 2016 (edited) Bokis's lead link, if turns out to be true, is hilarious and sad. It feels more like a troll, though. Then again, people say ISIS/AQ exist and attack the US/West b/c of the evilness of the West... yet their targets ar emor often or not fellow muslims. DOES. NOT. COMPUTE. "Misguided SJW, misguided Muslim jihadist...what's the difference? Don't they stand for the same thing now?" Not misguided. That's a cop out. Misguided implies not knowing what theya re doing. Extremnists are extreme but they are evil not insane. Edited September 18, 2016 by Volourn DWARVES IN PROJECT ETERNITY = VOLOURN HAS PLEDGED $250.

quidproquo Posted September 19, 2016 Share Posted September 19, 2016 That Pepe the frog thing is so much nonsense. Still don't entirely kith it. Parently some sort of hoax that a cartoon frog was a racist mascot. Never even caught wind of it before the Clinton campaign came out gainst it. Trump's advantage is people don't care bout his crazy stuff. Clinton out crazies Trump and she's jousting on his list field. As a bear in winter, so must I too hibernate soon.

Oerwinde Posted September 19, 2016 Share Posted September 19, 2016 Intentionally setting off a bomb in a public place is called terrorism, no matter who does it. NYC mayor saying it's "intentional but not terrorism" is pretty out there. NY governor has overridden that statement and is calling it terrorism now though Terrorism requires a political goal to be terrorism. If someone sets off a bomb for ****z and giggles, then its not terrorism, just being terrible. The area between the balls and the butt is a hotbed of terrorist activity.

quidproquo Posted September 19, 2016 Share Posted September 19, 2016 Things that it could be: Murder attempt (personal) Assassination attempt (political) ****z and giggles (insanity) To terrorize the population (terrorism) Would agree with Oerwinde that terrorism requires a larger goal, but disagree that it must be global. There are terrorists within countries, such as shining path. The aim can be regional or even local. It can be purely political or religious. No one sufficient way to characterize terrorism. 1 As a bear in winter, so must I too hibernate soon. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Meshugger Posted September 19, 2016 Share Posted September 19, 2016 A Reddit post has been found from Paul Combetta (the IT guy who got FBI immunity and deleted Hillary's emails) proving they were covering up for Hillary. First, notice Paul's email address here: https://pbs.twimg.com/media/Csrp9J6WEAAyubT.jpg stonetear@gmail.com He uses the same username on his Etsy page: https://www.etsy.com/people/stonetear (Backup http://archive.is/P45cY ) Now look at the username of this Redditor asking how to strip the name of a "VERY VIP" from email archives. "Hello all- I may be facing a very interesting situation where I need to strip out a VIP's (VERY VIP) email address from a bunch of archived email that I have both in a live Exchange mailbox, as well as a PST file. Basically, they don't want the VIP's email address exposed to anyone, and want to be able to either strip out or replace the email address in the to/from fields in all of the emails we want to send out." This is your smoking gun. I've asked other people to send this to you so we can make sure you get the message. http://archive.is/FXcao (Backup http://archive.is/t23ID , original link https://web.archive.org/web/2016091...remove_or_replace_tofrom_address_on_archived/ ) http://archive.is/25K9t https://www.reddit.com/r/The_Donald...teven_smith_retweeted_katica_breaking/d7ss8ln Additionally: http://arstechnica.com/information-...on-exchange-2010-server-now-not-in-chappaqua/ TL;DR-version.
