          Farook Family Lawyer: 'They Were Handcuffed, Lying Face Down in this Truck, Shot Up'
          National Review One of two lawyers hired by Syed Farook's family, David S. Chelsey, made some pretty outrageous claims in an interview with CNN:Chelsey: There's a lot of disconnects and unknowns and things that, quite...Chelsey: There’s a lot of disconnects and unknowns and things that, quite frankly, don’t add up or seem implausible. She was never involved in shooting. She was probably about 90 pounds. It’s unlikely she could even carry a weapon, or wear some type of a vest or do any of this. Where the couple was found, from what I understand, is that they were handcuffed, lying face down in this truck, shot up. There’s a lot of things that just don’t make sense. You know, no one has ever seen Sayed with any of the things that they, I mean – with some of the things we found on the scene, they haven’t seem them with them. Chris Cuomo: Like what? Chelsey: The pipe bombs, for example. No one had ever seen him use or have anything like that. It just doesn’t make sense for these two to be some kind of Bonnie and Clyde or something. It’s just ridiculous. It doesn’t add up. It doesn’t add up, the military skills to carry out something like this. Really. Frankly. Cuomo: Authorities go back and forth on whether or not this shows sophisticated or lack of sophisticated, in terms of how it was carried out, but are you saying you’re not sure that they did this? Chelsey: I’m just telling you straight out that it doesn’t make sense. It looks like — if somebody had military training or something, yes, but there was none of that. And this person was not aggressive. We sat with the FBI for three hours and they tired to identify some characteristics or some affiliations that he might have had, that could have led to him acting this way. They couldn’t find anything. They were totally stumped, totally frustrated. Is this lawyer contending that he’s surprised that Sayed Farook never said to the neighbors, “hey, why don’t you guys come over and I can show you my elaborate home IED factory and my collection of pipe bombs?”... lawyer’s rant sounds like a stew of “false flag” or Truther conspiracy theories, post-Ferguson police-demonization, wishful thinking (90-pround women can’t wear tactical vests?) and a sprinkling the O.J. Simpson defense strategy. 

          Is it OK for federal agents to call it terrorism yet?  National Review Both she and her husband, co-jihadist Syed Rizwan Farook, may also have had contact with – or at least been “inspired by” – al Qaeda figures overseas.... investigating agents will now heave a sigh of relief because this means their superiors will probably give them the green-light to call the terrorist attack a terrorist attack. ...The terrorist attack was ignited by Islamic supremacist ideology, a mainstream interpretation of Islam drawn directly and literally from Muslim scripture. So the attack was a terrorist attack when it was happening, it was a terrorist attack yesterday when the government would not acknowledge that fact, and it is a terrorist attack now. But in the government’s parallel universe, everything has changed.... agents now apparently have a provable tie between the San Bernardino jihadists and both ISIS and al Qaeda. Because the government has decreed that ISIS and al Qaeda are non-Islamic (even anti-Islamic), it will now be permissible to call the attack terrorism. Islam is peace and cannot trigger terrorism, so we can’t call mass-murder committed by Muslims as terrorism. But ISIS/al-Qaeda are anti-Islam because they commit violence. Therefore, now that Farook and Malik are ISIS/al-Qaeda, they are anti-Islam, so we can safely call their attack terrorism.


          So why is it that, upon seeing two-plus-two, they can’t call it four when Islam is involved? government denies that terrorism is caused by Islamic doctrine. This is a triumph of willful blindness and political correctness  .constructed “an Islam of their very own.” ... when she branded terrorism as “anti-Islamic activity.” That is: the savagery is not merely unrelated to Islam but becomes, by dint of its being violence, contrary to Islam. This must be so because the British government, like our government, insists Islam is a “religion of peace.”

          violence is deemed anti-Islamic. That is what has been dictated to our law-enforcement agents by their superiors. If those were your instructions, you’d be babbling like a moron, too. Islamic doctrine can never be cited as the cause of terrorism.  the one Rudy rightly labels moronic: The apparent inability of government officials to call a mass-murder attack by Muslims a terrorist attack. they cannot call terrorism terrorism unless and until they uncover evidence proving that the Muslim mass-murderers have some tie to a designated “non-Islamic” terrorist group, such as ISIS or al-Qaeda.... that’s why they won’t say the terrorist attack in San Bernardino is the terrorist attack in San Bernardino.
