I think this is the most telling aspect that marks this as suspected terrorism.

I also think there's a good chance that the sniper is some way connected to the child.

I don't think it's an accident that the victim was thirteen. Thirteen is the age of accountability in Christianity and for the bar mitzvah in Judaism. I think the sniper used a thirteen year old so he could rationalize that he was shooting an adult instead of a child.

I also suspect that to know this boy was thirteen, he had to have some passing knowledge of the victim's family. He may even have chosen him because he knew the kid would be getting there early when he'd have a pretty clear shot.

I'm betting the sniper is black muslim and probably connected to al Fuqra.

With the close location of the WH, I am not at all surprised. In fact, I would have thought they would have already been involved.

This type of criminal, the sniper, is the most dangerous to the President; especially somebody with a high powered rifle. The SS's training will be very helpful for this type of investigation.

Thanks for your reply.

Parts of your reply are those gnawing things that many of us have had since the sniping began:

I think this is the most telling aspect that marks this as suspected terrorism.

That was the first thought that entered my mind when I heard about this.

Second you posted, I'm betting the sniper is black muslim and probably connected to al Fuqra.

Those of us who know the relationship fo the Black Muslims to the al Fuqra thugs and on to al Qaeda will not be surprised if what you posted here is the reality.

It is still evening out here on the West Coast!:)

This is to me is some real breaking news!

Interesting that we have to go to London to get the information.

I guess the secret service guys will have to suffice for homeland security, since Tommy boy has been holding up the security bill in his Democrat lockbox.

A few of the repliers agree with you that this sniper/s represents a real danger to our president.

Tommy could care less what happens to America as long as he can remain the Senate Majority leader. We have to get this message out on a regular basis.

If you protect/sheild the terrorists with your political power, you are a terrorist!

Fairly cogent argument. Did you pass this on to the FBI? If not, Do it!

islam... strikes again? who knows?

Of course Mr. Daschle does not believe the president needs the authority to move personnel to fit the needs of assymetric counter terrorism warfare or operations....

They should have authorized unfettered homeland defense... six months ago. And if this turns out to be islamikazis... the innocent blood will be at least in part, on the hands of those, who have sought to TIE our president's hands for political gain.

will we hold the democrats responsible?

yeah... the little b#st#rd-weasle is really dragging his commie butt on getting that life and death legislation through. Democrat delays kill children and old people. We shoulda had the homeland security program in operation full speed six months ago... not six weeks from now.

God I am sick of Tommy D... and the circus of clowns parade in the senate. They care NOTHING for the safety of Americans. NOTHING. By their delays and lies about our president and abandonment of our national security, once again they prove themselves to be TRAITORS... and terrorist enablers.

and jeffords was the one who put them in the place where their treachery has now killed even more americans.

I can just imagine clintoon or albore doing this

Realistically, clintoon, or albore would be drooling at an opportunity like this to disarm us all, they wouldn't be able to think of anything but getting in front of a tv camera.
