FBI Now Investigating The San Bernardino Shooting As An Act Of Terrorism



New York Times: F.B.I. Treating Attack in San Bernardino as Terrorism

WASHINGTON — The F.B.I. is now treating the San Bernardino shooting by a husband and wife that killed 14 and wounded 21 as an act of terrorism, an agency official said Friday.

“As of today, based on the information and facts as we know them,” the agency is investigating this “as an act of terrorism,” David Bowdich, the assistant F.B.I. director in charge of the Los Angeles office, said at a news conference. The agency will be taking over the investigation from local officials.

Mr. Bowdich did not offer any details about why the bureau had made the determination, saying only that “there’s a number of pieces of evidence that has pushed us off the cliff.”

The shift in the investigation game shortly after federal law enforcement officials said the woman who helped carry out the shooting in San Bernardino, Calif., Tashfeen Malik, had pledged allegiance to the Islamic State in a Facebook posting.

Getting the Obama administration to admit to reality is like pulling hen's teeth.

About the only way to pull hen's teeth is to get a hold of the mythical machine that Koopa used to make Goomba. But that ain't happening.

reality just doesnt fit this administrations narrative. during this attack in ca, gun control agendas were being pushed despite ca being a premier gun control state. despite the terrorists themselves acquiring firearms legally. the focus is continually taken away from the true problem: islamic terrorism. Events like these are then refocused on agendas that promote prep of a democratic voter base and a failure to call terrorism what it actually is,insert obama's interviews after any terrorist attack on innocents (domestic or international) here.
