I think think this is another situation that calls for that phrase of wisdom, “Casual to the most obvious observer.” Let me explain, please. However, I need to get a little graphic with an illustration for which I hope you will understand and pardon me.

Let us say that a man, a Palestinian has a baseball bat with which he is beating another man, a Jew. While the man is beating the other man, he is using all kinds of Jewish ugly words about him being a Jew.

Now while this is going on, 10 people have been watching from the beginning. The police come along and break up the fight, but now before many of the press comes along and starts writing the story.

The policemen take both the men to the station and start asking questions.

Okay. The press immediately start writing stories about how the Jew started it. The onlookers all say they saw nothing and walk away. The Palestinian claims they Jew has no right to live and the Jew is still trying to figure out why he was attacked.

Immediately, law enforcement checks to see if he acted alone or if it was a hate crime. Did anyone tell the Palestinian to attack the jew or whether he just did it on his own.

They get the Palestinian’s phone and go through his house to see if the man belongs to some group. Then too, when and where was he turned into a radical.

In the old days, before all the political correctness, it would have been different. It would not have taken a week to decide what happened and what to do. First the one with the bat would go to jail for a while. He is guilty of assault, regardless of anything else.

As to whether he was acting alone, that is obvious. Of course he isn’t. Someone told him what to think about what to think about Jews and someone encouraged him to attack that Jew. He only acted alone in that he was the only one with the bat. That organization that radicalized that Palestinian was behind it. If anyone else was trying anything similar, guess what, the organization is behind that assault either.

For crying out loud, if I were the investigator, it would not take me no 2 weeks to figure it out.

The two recent terrorists, guess what? They were terrorists. Their effort was clearly to terrorize. You don’t have to be a genius to realize they succeeded. Moreover, from now on, we, all over the country will live our lives just a little different to avoid people like this. If you don’t believe me, just try getting on a plane nowadays. Because of the terrorists, we now have to arrive two hours before our flight is ready to leave. Our lives have been forever changed.

It is casual to the most obvious observer that it would be better to keep the terrorists out of the country, instead of inviting them in as Old Joe has.

There are those who would argue with me that these were American born citizens. However, who taught them to hate the US and Americans? Somewhere, somehow, these men were radicalized, likely by a terror organization. That, is what they have in common and it cannot be denied.

Moreover, my guess is that the two of them received there instructions a day or two before they did it. More than likely, we will never know who they were. The terrorists aren’t talking.
