Why was the FBI involved?

That man is a hero, all right.

If only he had something harder like lead to throw at him.

I’m surprised the FBI didn’t gun the rabbi down.

“Why was the FBI involved?”

To clean up the evidence of their prior involvement.

Terrorism?

[non-Islamic] Clerics were deeply involved in the US Revolution.

Personal Liberty is to be sustained, supported, celebrated and fought for.

Bttt your post

“British terrorist”

I knew they would grasp heavily at this characterization.

Yup, just another evil white westerner.

“Why was the FBI involved?” To clean up the evidence of their prior involvement.

Yes.

If the FBI doesn't like the bad publicity then reform and get clean and honest. Unless it's much too difficult for you guys.

Get on America's side for a change.

Aaaand scene.

Give them time. Charges may be pending against the rabbi. This would have been obvious sarcasm 10 years ago, but who knows anymore.

That’s bad when a fidgety wimp gunman gets agitated. They often start to kill all the hostages.

Maybe the Arab was pining away for his goat back home and decided he couldn’t go on without her love.

Have the feds charged him with assault yet?

[Magnatron]

I think throwing a 10mm slug at him would have been better…

>>>[non-Islamic] Clerics were deeply involved in the US Revolution.<<<

Preachers (even some of my own stripe) that claim preachers have no business getting involved in politics or self-defense make me sick. Jesus was NOT a pacifist. Those that think He is never read their Bibles:

“And he said unto them, When I sent you without purse, and scrip, and shoes, lacked ye any thing? And they said, Nothing. Then said he unto them, But now, he that hath a purse, let him take it, and likewise his scrip: and he that hath no sword, let him sell his garment, and buy one” (Luke 22:35-36).

[silent majority rising]

Hostage situations almost always bring the feds in because it is a federal crime. Plus, where can they get their positive press if the locals don’t let them have it?

Here in Texas, even our Jewish population is badassed.
