Obama Calls Terror Attack on Paris Jews ‘Random’ Shooting
Breitbart ^ | 2/9/15 | Joel B. Pollack

Posted on 02/09/2015 1:02:16 PM PST by Nachum

President Barack Obama has called the terror attack on Jews in a kosher supermarket in Paris last month an act of random violence, rather than a terror attack or an antisemitic attack.

Obama’s remark appears in an interview with Matt Yglesias of Vox.com. The president calls the attackers “violent, vicious zealots who behead people or randomly shoot a bunch of folks in a deli in Paris.” He elides past the religion of the attackers or the victims in an attack that claimed four innocent lives.

Obama was responding to a sympathetic question by Yglesias about whether “the media sometimes overstates the level of alarm people should have about terrorism and this kind of chaos, as opposed to a longer-term problem of climate change and epidemic disease.” While stating that Americans were right to be concerned, Obama agreed that the media had overstated the problem of terror because of a general tendency towards sensational reporting: “If it bleeds, it leads, right?”

Just a “deli”. Right.

As in -

Reporter: Mr. President, what is your response to the targeted killing of French Jews in a Kosher deli?

Potus: Well, as I’ve said, ah, ummm. As I’ve said many times and let me be crystal clear. I oppose the shooting of anyone, anytime in any sort of food establishment.
