Dunedan: conceeded. We just don't know who did it. No one can rule out the Taliban, but a light-skinned middle-aged man certainly does insert the Talibubba into the equation. We'll see who it plays out, but were I jaded enough to bet on the outcome, I'll go with the home-grown variety. Perhaps it's a frustrated stage actor with a grudge against an old boyfriend. As we've seen historically, claiming responsibility for an action doesn't necessarily mean that the claimer was responsible.
Dave, if a terrorist kills me for whatever rationalisation s/he theorizes, I'm still dead. I'm sure there are jihadis in the US. Honestly, until they're actually here in front of me doing something, I'm not going to spend too much energy worrying about them. I've got better things to do. And the jihadis are simply another placeholder in a long line of folks that think the US and all its citizens are evil - where was the Rev. Phelps on Sunday?
