U.S. President Barack Obama commended the FBI's response in bombing attempt - but for what, failing again
A man tried to detonate a time bomb in Times Square in New York City, but thanks to the keen eyes of t-shirt vendors, was unsuccessful, as they noticed smoke billowing from the abandoned vehicle. The authorities are now searching for clues, as to the identity of the would-be bomber.
This incident occurred just weeks after the anniversary of the Oklahoma City bombing, which claimed many lives in the American state of Oklahoma, via domestic terrorist, Timothy McVeigh, leaving a vehicle loaded with explosives to detonate, at a busy federal building.
A similar incident also occurred in London, as terrorists left a vehicle with a bomb in it, to detonate in a bustling area of the city. British counter-terrorism agents were able to find and impound the vehicle before it detonated, saving many lives.
This recent incident in Times Square is a terrible wake up call, regarding those that would seek to kill innocent civilians, to further their immoral cause.
Thankfully, due to the vigilance of civilians, this recent bombing attempt, as with the Christmas Day 2009 airline incident, was averted and lives saved, thank God.
FBI Director Robert S. Mueller
However, it also pushes another undeniable fact into the forefront. Where was the FBI, who are charged with national security? Who the FBI should be watching, they clearly are not, as incident after incident has occurred, that poses a great danger to human life.
Instead, the FBI is wasting many millions in taxpayer money spying on law abiding journalists and bloggers and other innocent people that do not deserve for their privacy to be violated, while the real criminals are getting away.
It makes one wonder about the true objective of the FBI, its corrupt director Robert S. Mueller and the agency's purpose, costing the taxpayers $8 billion a year, then failing when it's crunch time, leaving innocent citizens to fend for themselves, against deranged criminals that should be in prison, but are roaming free.
