In a case like this...in the south...usually there is a woman involved, and its not your wife. Probably some jealous husband who decided to settle some problem with the doc.

Has the FBI announced that this wasn’t terrorism yet?

They were unwilling to report that a Hybrid exploded until they could blame it on a bomb.

As to why? When a doctor is targeted I tend to think it might be anti-abortion activists.

Could be something more personal, though.

Perhaps a recent ruling against a doctor with a short fuse...

Oddly, they announced that it IS terrorism related.

That means they think the can blame it on white Christian extremists...

Years ago, there was a vet who “fixed” a similar problem. There was an inquiry, but that’s as far as it got.

Or someone lost a loved one under his care and blames him.

The report I saw on CNN reported it as a hybrid right off. Described the damage in the front end and showed the hood blown open, which made it obvious that it wasn’t a problem with the hybrid.

Googling reveals an Arkansas Supreme Court case involving the doctor for which an opinion was issued January 22 of this year. Could be nothing, but worth a look:
