Washington Post Comments on Terrorist Plots
From this article, published last April:
Batiste confided, somewhat fantastically, that he wanted to blow up the Sears Tower in Chicago, which would then fall into a nearby prison, freeing Muslim prisoners who would become the core of his Moorish army. With them, he would establish his own country.
Somewhat fantastically? What would the Washington Post consider to be truly fantastic? A plan involving Godzilla? Clearly they have some very high standards.
I’m sick of people taking these idiots seriously. This plot is beyond fantastic, it’s delusional.

And this is the crux of the problem – if we have ‘experts’ wailing about the most ridiculous plots (dropping Sears Tower onto a nearby prison isn’t going to FREE the prisoners, it’ll KILL THEM) … then we have a society trained to accept ‘expert opinion’ cowering in fear.
Not to mention which, blowing up a skyscraper is defending against the previous attack.
