Just a teeny difference in coverage...

Hmmm. This CNN story:

Same story at Fox News:

That may be so, but leave it to Fox News to jump to that conclusion right in their headline well before the authorities and the FBI made their conclusions. And to CNN's credit, they DID mention that Wahhaj is the son of that Muslim cleric in this Reuters story. They just left out the part of him being the notorious "Blind Cleric". Nothing like Fox embellishing the story and serving it up like red meat before the facts are all out.

No mention was made of ideology or motive in initial court filings. The sheriff in comments over the weekend referred to the suspects as “extremists of Muslim belief,” but he declined to elaborate on that characterization when asked about it by reporters at a news conference on Tuesday.

According to CNN, Wahhaj is himself the son of a prominent Muslim cleric in New York.

But even if all these tidbits DO prove true, so what? What the hell difference does it make whether the kids were being trained by a BOO! "Muslim" anyway? The sad fact is, that more American children from Christian families have killed their classmates than any aspiring Muslim terrorists could ever hope for. Americans keep looking for those terrorist tigers lurking in the forest, not noticing the lions already sitting in their own houses, including the cubs.

The toddlers would fall under accidents or gross negligence on the parents' part.

As for the kids shooting up schools- ever notice a number of them have been on the autism spectrum?

Adam Lanza and Cruz were both autistic. I think there have been other examples.

Annnnd, none of them were Muslim terrorists were they?

Sure, but just like any other hazardous situations- they should be prepared for and/or avoided by not turning a blind eye.

Seems the landowners reported the squatting muslim wannabe-terrorist training camp to the police and nothing was done for months as a child was left to die.

One does news; the other propaganda.

This is not new.

The headline could've read : "Muslim terrorist steals a commuter airliner from airport and crashes it on purpose!!!!!!" Oooooh, not quite NS and I'll bet that was the first thing that came into your mind when this breaking news flashed across TV screens and the net this weekend. Sorry to pop your Muslims-do-all-the-bad-terrorism bubble, but the thief wasn't a Muslim, nor a terrorist either. Just a suicidal American airport ground worker who could've killed a lot people if he'd gotten the inclination to fly into a building with his little joyride to doom. Obviously, NO ONE THOUGHT THAT SOMETHING LIKE THIS WOULD EVER HAPPEN because most of these ground workers aren't actual pilots. The only aircraft this guy had ever flown was in a computer simulator, the very same simulations that a lot of Americans own and enjoy, including me. Americans just can't seem to get it into their heads that we are our own worst enemy most of the time.

This was a single disturbed individual that didn't have a "divine holy book" telling him he would get rewards in the afterlife for killing infidels. Slight difference.

It doesn't make a shitload of difference. Everyone dies someday, so worrying about it, especially something so remote as a Muslim terrorist shooting at your little sweet behind, takes precious moments out of enjoying that life. So there you sit, twiddling your thumbs over a keyboard and wasting your short time on this earth by posting about those evil Muslims coming to get us like it's your solemn duty to protect America. Meanwhile, some disgruntled or demented airport worker has no difficulty hopping into a large aircraft, firing it up, taking off, performing a few loops for fun and then turning it into a weapon by flying it squarely into your house at high speed before the National Guard can shoot him down first, killing you in the process. Or worse, the National Guard shoots the bastard down in order to to protect the public, and the bastard goes down in a ball of fire, just happening to make a flaming pancake onto your house, still killing you as collateral damage. Nowhere was there a Muslim in sight.

You are wasting your time TC. Thunderbully will never be convinced with reason because he hasn't reasoned himself into that viewpoint. It's all about emotion with him now.

Angry rednecks with guns are a far greater worry of mine than Muslims will ever be.

No. They're busy training starving children to shoot up schools full of kids because they're 'infidels.'

[Top Gun]

It's amazing how casual you are with your blatant fearmongering racism. A societal paragon.

Making some racist assumptions aren't you?

"Redneck" is a racist stereotype.

Last time I checked, islam isn't a race any more than Christianity or Buddhism is a race.

These people aren't Muslims or calling people "infidels", yet they tortured and beat their 13 kids just the same.
