US Attorney: Boston Marathon Bombing ‘Not a Religious Crime,’ It Was ‘Political’
Breitbart ^ | 15 May 2015 | Ian Hanchett

Posted on 05/15/2015 7:09:17 PM PDT by artichokegrower

US Attorney Carmen M. Ortiz stated that the Boston Marathon Bombing “was not a religious crime…it was a political crime” at a press conference on Friday.

Ortiz said, “Make no mistake, the defendant claimed to be acting on behalf of all Muslims. This was not a religious crime. And it certainly does not reflect true Muslim beliefs.

Muslims kill, muslims rape, muslims behead, muslims maim, muslims butcher, muslims deform women, muslims torture women, muslims enslave women, muslims wipe out villages, muslims enslave populations, muslims slaughter the males, muslims rape the women, muslims put the children in chains, muslims fly airplanes into buildings, muslims wear suicide vests, muslims hate everything that moves that isn’t a muslim.

But none of that reflects true muslim beliefs.

Isn’t it funny how liberals constantly read religious intent into conservatives’ political motivations — we’re all a bunch of “dominionist” theocrats, donchaknow — yet when it comes to Islam they will twist themselves into pretzels to avoid seeing the obvious religious connections.

The US Attorney obviously has an IQ matched to Dorkbama.

Matched integrity (or rather, lack thereof), too.

Hey Carmen, Islam isn’t a religion so much as it’s a political system - so either way, you lying sack of *7_%$

She is right. Absolutely 100% correct.

The US Attorney’s name doesn’t happen to be Winston Smith, does it?

The hilarious part is that the more they do this sort of nonsense, the more people will take notice of their imbecilic actions.

It is actually religious and political. The muslims have no way of separating the two.

She’s actually done a big favor for those who argue that Islam is a political system with a religious component. By being the first Obama Administration official to publically endorse the concept.

This is 100% outside the purview of this official and was in no way an aspect of the trial.

There is no reason or basis for her to make such a statement, true or false.

She would have no way to know this, and even if true, is irrelevant.

Good point, not what they meant to do, I’m sure.

There’s no wall of separation between mosque and state. In Islam, the religious IS the political.

Moreover, there are thousands of muslims who would tell you it certainly DOES reflect their beliefs, and who is a non-muslim to tell them they are wrong about their own religion?

Oh, of course not.

She’s an idiot for saying this. If it starts to get widespread exposure with that understanding, it’s going to be fun watching the denials and backpeddling.

Exactly....but then Our Representatives don't care even if they are informed...they intend to unite the world politically and religiously, so for them they "play" political points when it's advantageous to the to do so.
