With the latest terrorist attack in New York that happened at the Port Authority on 12/11/17, was supposedly so far listed as a lone wolf. That’s a myth. There is no such animal.
I believe every single one of these attacks, whether being done by an individual or group has been guided. Everyone knows there are sites that these people follow. It’s a no-brainer.
How many times have some of the people that commit these atrocities have been on a watch-list of local and federal authorities? For some reason, there have been a fine thin line that you walk on when it comes to apprehending these suspects.
It’s too late after people have been mangled or murdered.
We do applaud law enforcement when they have prevented and thwarted these attempted terrorist attacks. A proposed attack on U.K. Prime Minister Theresa May was foiled on 12/5/17. The plan was to use an improvised bomb on Downing Street, London.
After the failed attack on Prime Minister Theresa May, I saw a related article where it showed how Prime Ministers are taught how to respond in case of an attack. It showed the late Prime Minister Margaret Thatcher a.k.a. Iron Woman in a simulated attack. In the video, she handled it so well that she admonished her security for not keeping up with her.
We know in the United States that there have been thwarted attacks that which have not been publicized for security purposes.
We believe that every terrorist attack, no matter how small, is a dry run for something bigger. Who knows if the person purposely detonated the bomb strapped around him prematurely? Maybe the head wanted to see how the tail responds.
Don’t forget that the first attack on the World Trade Center was in 1993. Perhaps lone wolves are sacrificial lambs.
Remember, after the arrest of Ramzi Ahmed Yousef, who orchestrated (with other terrorists) the 1993 bombing of the World Trade Center, he reportedly said, “This is only the beginning.”
We want to say how impressed we were with Sarah Huckabee Sanders who read President Trump’s remarks about the bombing at the Port Authority New York at the White House Press Conference (12/11/17)
The first few questions came from reporters who happened to be female. They were more interested in the women who were protesting in New York, who said they were sexually assaulted by Donald Trump. The reason we did not say President is because these allegations took place before he ever ran for office.
We write this editorial because the voters spoke on November 8, 2016. No matter how crazy we think some of his tweets are, he’s still the President of the United States.
Right now, our concerns are on the safety and security of the United States and our allies.
Women in America, just remember this: you do have a recourse, unlike in some countries where adolescent girls and boys are sold into the sex slave trade for as little as $1.50 per perpetrator. That’s a shame.
As we stated in last week’s editorial, we wish you had shown as much support and sympathy for those women who accused a sitting President. What is the point of doing this now over and over and over again? In 4 years, you will have a chance to vote Trump out. I’m pretty sure there will be a ton of candidates on both sides and maybe a strong independent candidate. It would not surprise us in the least if an independent got in. If an unseasoned candidate like Trump got in, any strong enough candidate can. C.M. & K.M.
