Mainstream Media Baffled By California Attack

The page one, above the fold headline in the WashPost this morning summed up the media's state of total bafflement: "Motive elusive in deadly Califor. rampage"

Note the use of the word "rampage", suggesting a crazed individual, not a carefully orchestrated plan.

I do not recall any similar state of confusion about the motive for the SC church shooter. White shooter, Confederate flag, black victims, QED racial hate crime.

Here we have a devout muslim who goes to saudi arabia to collect a mail order or prearranged bride. She wears total hijab in southern california. He spends every spare minute at mosque or assembling an arsenal. Numerous young arab men visit them. They go to a preplanned gathering with enough ammo for a squad of marines wearing tac gear and sporting GoPros. They have a supply of pipe bombs and remote detenators. There is a web posting during the attack pledging allegiance to ISIS.

Motive? Elusive for our seasoned media professionals. The AG threatens prosecution for anyone speaking badly about muslims. We know it is not an idle threat because the same administration put the maker of the notorious "anti islam" benghazi- excuse video in prison. The First Amendment means no more to them than the Second.
 
They finally figured out she was a terrorist.

SAN BERNARDINO, Calif. (AP) — The woman who carried out the San Bernardino massacre with her husband had pledged allegiance to the Islamic State group and its leader on Facebook, a U.S. law enforcement official said Friday, providing the strongest evidence to date that the rampage may have been an extremist attack.
The official said Tashfeen Malik made her posts under an alias. A Facebook executive says she praised the leader of the Islamic State group in a post at 11 a.m. Wednesday, when the couple were believed to have stormed a San Bernardino social service center and opened fire.

And we're supposed to depend on the vetting process. Well this worked out really well. To receive her visa, Malik was subjected to a vetting process the U.S. government describes as vigorous. Foreigners applying from countries that are home to Islamic extremists, such as Pakistan where she was from, undergo additional scrutiny before the State Department and Homeland Security approve their applications. Evidently it ain't a perfect system. Let's let 10,000 + more in. Great idea!

Can't blame them for trying...and desperately hoping. It's like a broken record, though it's interesting how they suddenly go silent about ideology when the murderers are later learned to be leftwing lunatics.
