Boston Bombing

Panel 1:
- Did you hear about the Boston Bombing yet?

Panel 2:
- Yes! that is some terrible shit!
-Obama called it terrorism and tried to blame the middle east.

Panel 3:
-I wonder if he calls what we do to other countries terrorism as well.
-Doubt that!


Don't take me wrong, I do agree that the bombing was some fuck up shit BUT that does not give the right to anyone to be racist and blame it on the middle east or north Korea or any other enemy country when the evidence points to something very local (I tried to find the original news article where I read about the FBI blaming the middle east for the pressure cooker bombs but I assume it was taken down or something). Why don't we look internally? I mean, this country is going down a line I know pretty well and I don't know if any one else noticed but this is not the first terririst attack done in the US that does not include some external enemy, does any one remember the christian radicals throwing Molotov bombs to Planned Parenthood clinics? if not, google it, that was a terrorist attack and that is just one example. Any act of terror use with the means of carrying out a message is a terrorist attack or as the dictionary says "The use of violence and intimidation in the pursuit of political aims". So why blame some outsider when we can clearly blame ourselves?
Also, not like the United States hasn't done some fuck up shit to other countries as well, it isn't call terrorism because we are blind to reality, and we like it that way.
