#2 So, what is the procedure for un-naturalizing him? Seems like he has violated his oath of citizenship. Time to ship his butt back to AFG land.

#4 Taliban pressure cooker Improvised Explosive Device (IED), similar to that used by the Tsarnaev bros. in the Boston Marathon bombing. Item to the immediate right of the pressure cooker is a wooden pressure plate, battery powered IED initiator.

#6 I was looking at the ABC story on this and the comments were so stupid as to be scary.

All the leftists, the majority, were claiming that this is ass a Trump setup to use against Hillary and Obama. As I read them one word kept flashing in my mind...PROJECTION!! They would be thrilled if Hillary ad done something like this to further the narrative.

#9 I wonder how this "naturalized citizen" made it into our country? Which refugee program did he come through? As an Iraqi or Afghan? Do we have DoD/DoJ derog on this cat that we were deliberately indifferent to?

The State Department bureaucrat that approved his entry needs to be disciplined.

Trump advisor: Clinton accused opponent of 'treason'

The Trump campaign does not like Hillary Clinton’s remarks earlier today about the billionaire’s rhetoric on the bombs in New York and New Jersey giving “aid and comfort to our adversaries”, which it says amount to an accusation of “treason”.

In a statement, senior communications advisor Jason Miller said the comments “accusing Mr Trump of treason are not only beyond the pale, it’s also an attempt to distract from her horrible record on Isis.

If Clinton really wants to find the real cause of Isis, she needs to take a long, hard look in the mirror. The decision to remove all American troops from Iraq in 2011, which was vigorously supported by Clinton, created the vacuum that led to the founding of Isis.

Nothing she says or does can ever un-ring that bell. The only thing we can expect from a Hillary Clinton presidency is more attacks on our homeland and more innocent Americans being hurt and killed.

#13 And here I hoped it would be one of Trump followers. Maybe even a Jew.

That gentleman turned out to be a Messianic Jew, g(r)omgoru, according to The Times of Israel two days after the event. It didn't seem important enough to add to the record here, when so much else has been going on.

#15 The mayor spoke about how the chicken store had faced complaints and problems in 2012, when the city council and police enforced that it close at 10pm He acknowledged that Rahami’s Muslim faith was mentioned repeatedly by Rahami in complaints about city authorities.

#19 Glad the officer shot was wearing a vest and wasn't seriously injured.

All these attacks need to be laid at Clinton's and the demonic party that she belongs too. This IS their fault and they are doing their best to bring more of these goat fuckers into this country.

Every one of them needs to be tried
Please stop there, DarthVader.

#20 So this is the new normal. Politicians like Obama and Clinton tell us to be brave and vigilant while they continue to import people from the Middle East who have no intention to assimilate into our culture. They do not want to be Americans, they want to conquer America for Islam. How many bombings and stabbings will it take before Americans wake up?

#21 Lets go there,

The rest has been deleted. At Rantburg we do not threaten Americans, no matter how much we might dislike their actions. I understand why you are angry -- we all are angry. Nonetheless, this is Fred's living room, not your personal three-hole outhouse, and you do not get to make his life difficult just to vent your spleen. If you persist in acting like a flaming asshole, you will be banished.

Listen carefully to the periwinkle mod and her sensible, clearly stated discourse above. I'm not going to be nearly as nice about it. We don't threaten Americans here. Further statements that threaten Americans will (if you're a regular) earn you a trip to the cooler, or (if you're not a regular) banning.

#23 Fox News Catherine Herridge just reported that the FBI had previously interviewed Rahmani.

I thought the photograph surfaced rather suddenly. Please add Rahmani to the FBI's 'we know he's a shi*bag but we're doing nothing' list.

#25 Witnesses say he was found sleeping in the entryway of a bar on Elizabeth Avenue

Self-radicalized lonewolf who didn't have support, or gave much thought of what to do afterwards.

Which makes them hard to catch beforehand, as little or no pre-attack chatter.

#26 A) I did not threaten anyone. I proposed having a fair trial with the proper penalty for traitors applied.

B) We are well beyond the point where general niceties to the evil left can be maintained. While I do respect Fred's domain here, it does need to be mentioned that the left's brownshirts and media whores will do anything, and I mean anything to keep from losing power and to keep us silent.
If they try to use force to shut me up, they will reap what they sow.

The existence of 'leftest and brownshirts' is a given. Also a given is the high probability that this site is being monitored by those not in agreement with our sentiments or politics. Let's assume the obvious (monitoring) and not give them any ammunition which might endanger the site, our host, or participants. Respectfully, Besoeker

#30 We are at war. Some within our borders and within the seats of power are not on our side. It does no good to pretend otherwise, wherever we might be.

#31 9-11 happened. It *really* took place, and those that did it were Islamic terrorists.

Anyone who wishes to white-wash it as the equivalent of an unfortunate accident belongs to the other side. I don't care if they are "sincere" in their position. I want them out of the way regardless.
