“Blind Eye: Conciliatory FBI policies toward Islamism hampered probe into Boston bombers”

See alsolanguage matters.

Sorry, but I’ve been preaching this for over a dozen years here, and I get a bit tired of repeating myself.

Maybe a macro is in order…

(h/t Libby)

    Far as hampered probes go, it’s pretty damn clear why the LA Times never released the videos of Rashid Khalidis’ send off party.

    FYI-i just went down to Boylston St/ There is a Mac store there-hadda get a Mac thing
    Shit is shut down! Big Cops behind barricades turning u away
    “Shoulda called” the Nazi cop said/made a phone motion..

  3. sdferr says:

    Ya hafta study Mayor Menino’s plan buttons, it’s only natural.

  4. Silver Whistle says:

    Jeez buttons, you coulda had a full cavity search if you pushed it a little bit more.

  5. Hampering probes makes my washing machine go all thumpy and clunky.

  6. …or so I’ve been warned.

  7. pdbuttons says:

    When u have to weigh ur wise ass rebuts[I had a couple[]
    against Big [6 4] cops standing behind steel barricades
    well-i’m not trying to make a statement-just shoppiing
    “What’s ur badge number?”
    These dude would arrest me quick and beat me [I deserve it}

  8. JohnInFirestone says:

    An administration so into PC it has to call the Ft. Hood Shootings “Workplace Violence” even though the attacker was a known Muslim fanatic who got into one of the few places on base where soldiers are fully disarmed before shooting suffers from conciliatory policies toward Islam?

    GTFO!

  9. leigh says:

    per Jim Goad:

    Islam proposes that God, Lord of all Creation, is a highly insecure jerkoff who apparently fashioned the universe strictly to piss himself off.

    I’ve read huge chunks of the Koran, and it’s as repetitive as a Lil Jon song. Here’s the Koran in a tiny Islamic nutshell:

    1. Praise be to Allah, the beneficent and merciful.

    2. Worship him and repent and quickly rid yourself of anything remotely fun in your life, or he’ll torture you eternally.

  10. Silver Whistle says:

    “Shoulda called” the Nazi cop said/made a phone motion..

    “Didn’t have your number, love.”

  11. Libby says:

    Jihadi? Never heard of him. How’s it spelled? May be wrong on the fight manifest or something….

    Seriously, though, how is it that Bush was personally responsible for the global warming that “caused” Katrina as well as the aftermath, but Obama and his crack team have dropped the ball how many times? They’ve already used the “missed it because of a misspelled name” excuse twice now: underwear bomber (where the guy’s own father notified us) and the Boston bomber.

  12. sdferr says:

    They’ve already used the “missed it because of a misspelled name” excuse twice now

    They must figure “if it ain’t broke, don’t fix it.”

    The first time I used “worst president ever” for BHO, I was just mocking the left and their hatred of GWB. Now, I am serious.

    Social justice, gay marriage, healthy diets, green jobs, whatever, your first job is to protect the fracking country you morons.

  15. Ernst Schreiber says:

    How does CAIR escape FARA?

  16. DarthLevin says:

    Ernst, because shut up, raaaaacist Islamophobe.

    He sounds like a real honey of a deity.

    Anyone who says the Hebrew and Christian G-d and Allah are the same needs a swift kick in the ass.

  18. Slartibartfast says:

    …but Bush was warned about 9/11, and ignored those warnings.

    I would bet a double-sawbuck that the FBI removed references to Islam by ofyou-know-who.

    So, buck stops…where, again?

  19. cranky-d says:

    We held a secret meeting, and today, the buck stops with you, Slart.

  20. Slartibartfast says:

    I want to see all of them on my desk by COB today!

  21. leigh says:

    Just for you cranky here is the entire piece about how much muslims suck.

  22. Dave J says:

    I really cant wrap my little mind around the misspelled name excuse. What exactly was his name misspelled on? His airline ticket? His passport? His credit card? What?

  23. beemoe says:

    So how do the FBI react when little brother praises be to allah and gives him all the credit for the bombing?

    Do they tell him that can’t be and to come up with another story or do they just ignore him?

  24. John Bradley says:

    Quick, snatch up pressure cookers while they’re still legal.

    Good to see Williams-Sonoma is thinking progressively, and not waiting on the inevitable ban (or “reasonable bipartisan restrictions”) on such dangerous, unsporting devices.

    Yesterday’s snarky mockery is tomorrow’s reality.

  25. leigh says:

    Only people who aren’t savvy shoppers shop at W-S and over-priced boutique feeling store in upscale malls. They do have some very good clearance sales. Maybe they’ll stick all the pressure cookers on a back table with a 75% off sign.

  26. happyfeet says:

    you have to remember that entirely apart from their weirdo fascist ideologies, American government apparatchiks are just flat-out not particularly competent

    so I take this whole blind eye thing with a grain of salt

  27. happyfeet says:

    and a croissant

  28. happyfeet says:

    and maybe a handful of hershey kisses

  29. newrouter says:

    how about if we call the islamists wetbacks and the illegals towelheads? maybe we can confuzzle proggtardia.

  30. BigBangHunter says:

    – Eventually people would figure out that confusing Proggs amounts to child abuse.

    I didn’t think I’d say these words, but…

    “Bill Maher is making a lot of sense.”

    File under “Oh Boo-fucking-hoo”.

  33. Jim in KC says:

    I’m surprised Dick’s didn’t pull all their backpacks off the shelves…

    WS does sell a pretty damn good Belgian waffle mix.

  34. BigBangHunter says:

    “Bill Maher is making a lot of sense.”

    – Someone must have slipped some working brain cells into his skull when he was asleep. Either that or the word in Hollywood is that cashing in on Leftwing pandering has run its course. We’ll know for sure in the coming months if other celeb types follow suit.

  35. EBL says:

    This is very good post (that was put up in comments over at TOM) and goes right to the issues you have been talking about for years.

  36. Whadjuwant says:

    “Bill Maher is making a lot of sense.”

    And I just love how the guy is caught with a “I thought you were on our team” look.
    I hate to see that ass get a lotta credit for stating the obvious, saw him do that on taxing the rich too.
    Either his ego is busting on him for being a tool, or he is polishing up his lone wolf bona fides.

  37. dicentra says:

    Maher (fortunately, ironically) hates religion enough that he can’t pretend to be OK with Islam. Furthermore, saying that Islam is actually dangerous is transgressive enough to his audience to get him off.

    So yeah, the Book of Mormon plays on Broadway and tickets are scarce. And if you insult the Prophet Joseph Smith, I’ll just roll my eyes and write you off as a douche for saying it to my face.

  38. Muslims could learn from Maude Findlay: “God’ll get you for that.”

  39. Pablo says:

    How do we spell team? We spell it like this: BPD, FBI, ATF, MSP, MBTA, WPD, ICE, NEMLEC, EMS, BFD, MIT, SWAT and YOU. We r #BostonStrong

    YOU, of course, should stay on under the bench. No, not that one. The one in the locker room.

  40. Pablo says:

    File under “Statements that prove themselves”:

    Sarah Fitouri, Colorado Student Power Alliance, said Wells Fargo should do more to work with students.

    We are being sold degrees at a value that they are not worth,” she said. “We need Wells Fargo to work with students to create a process for loan modification that will allow students to pay what their degrees are actually worth. My peers are graduating into debt that they cannot repay.”

    You overpaid for your primary education too, sweetie.

  41. newrouter says:

    ross asshat

    But if you look at things from a libertarian perspective instead, it’s all perfectly consistent — the freedoms of gun owners being of a piece with the freedoms of migrants and pot smokers and gay couples

    ones of these things is constitutionally unlike the others

  42. Slartibartfast says:

    the freedoms of migrantsillegal aliens

    Fucking fixed it for teh asshat.

  43. Slartibartfast says:

    “We are being sold degrees at a value that they are not worth,” she said. “We need Wells Fargo to work with students to create a process for loan modification that will allow students to pay what their degrees are actually worth. My peers are graduating into debt that they cannot repay.”

    Sure, blame the bank. Fucking idiot. How about you need the universities to negotiate with the bank to refund the difference between what the degrees cost and what they’re worth?

    No? That sounds retarded? It’s substantially less retarded than what you proposed.

  44. beemoe says:

    that will allow students to pay what their degrees are actually worth.

    If most students were allowed to pay for what their degrees were actually worth they wouldn’t need loans in the first place.

  45. newrouter says:

    My peers are graduating into debt that they cannot repay.”

    allan ackbar thank baracky

  46. Slartibartfast says:

    I can’t even post my fucking status on Facebook anymore because things are so fucking stupid lately that I fucking can’t keep from saying fuck for an entire fucking sentence.

  47. Neo says:

    I think the world has had enough of people who have no belief system, no policy for jobs, no policy for education, no policy for rule of law, but who just want to kill people because they don’t like what they see.”

    Did John Kerry just say that Muslims have “no belief system” ?

  48. Slartibartfast says:

    The frequency with which he uses “policy” is interesting, if not predictable.

    Today’s liberals want a policy for absolutely everything, so that the multidimensional space of government intrusion into every aspect of life and markets can be explored.

    Conservatives, on the other hand, would ideally separate things into two piles: those things the government must involve itself in, and those things that the government should absolutely not be involved in.

    IMO the pile of things that the government should not be involved in should be quite a lot larger than the other pile. Liberals, by and large, think there is no other pile.

  49. Silver Whistle says:

    Kerry then made a joke, after he was asked, “What do you expect from Belgium?”

    A decent steak, and a great glass of beer. And I expect more sense out of them than I would out of John Kerry.

  50. Ernst Schreiber says:

    Did John Kerry just say that Muslims have “no belief system” ?

    No. I think he just said the world has had enough of his boss.

  51. Ernst Schreiber says:

    Douthat is right about one thing. Obama isn’t a Marxist. He’s too fascist for that.

  52. palaeomerus says:

    Smart Diplomacy -> Russian Overcharge Button -> Pull Missile Interceptors out of Eastern Europe -> Unilateral Nuclear Disarmament Scheme-> No Security in Benghazi on 9/11 -> No Support for Staff at Beghazi -> Blame Youtube Guy -> Islam is a Religion of Peace -> the Future Does not Belong to those Blaspheme Against Allah or his Prophet (PBuH) -> Stop Talking About it -> Avoid Hearings -> What Difference Does it Make? -> Drones are the New Cruise Missile Strikes-> Pass the Mess on to “Global Test” boy -> White Male Christian Militias and the Catholic Church are the Biggest Threat to our Nation -> Boston Marathon Bombing -> White Male Christian Militias and the Catholic Church are the Biggest Threat to our Nation and Islam is a Religion of Peace.

    Leftists and the Press aren’t bothered by the above. It makes me want to profusely shit my pants.
