What Psaki didn't psay:

Yeah, it was no big deal.

Now, imagine this headline:

"White supremacist killed after holding 5 hostages, including pastor in black church in Mississippi."

Would that be on page 1?

Of course.

@mik interesting comment.

Remember "Silence is Violence" from the distant past?

Well...

[Mik]

Good point.

[George K]

Hay, WaPo! Remind me where democracy dies again!

F'ing Brits.

When Yahoo! News has more details than WaPo.

By the way, the Limey's name is Malik Faisal Akram. So veddy British, y'know?

[George K]

@mik we may never know the motive.

Well, we won't know it for a couple of years, at least.

Remind me, how long did it take the FBI to designate Hodgkinson's attack as "politically motivated"? Three years? Four?

That's the BBC's reporting on the investigation being conducted by British law enforcement in the U.K.

POTUS: "We may never know the motivation."

I would have no problem if the news kept all descriptions generic, but unfortunately it only happens when it fits the corporate media's PC agenda. And Biden... "come on, man!"

You know, it might just be White Supremacy…

Idiots.

Oh... We may never know the motive.

The British terrorist who took four people hostage inside a Texas synagogue ranted about the “f***ing Jews” in the final phone call he made to his family during the siege, a recording obtained exclusively by the JC reveals.

In a chilling conversation with his brother in Blackburn from inside the Congregation Beth Israel synagogue in Colleyville, Malik Faisal Akram, 44, said: "I'm opening the doors for every youngster in England to enter America and f*** with them”.

Addressing fellow jihadists, he shouted: “Live your fing life bro, you fing coward. We’re coming to fing America. F them if they want to f*** with us. We’ll give them f***ing war.”

Malik Faisal Akram was known to police and MI5

The terrorist boasted about his desire for martyrdom. "I've asked Allah for this death, Allah is with me, I'm not worried in the slightest,” he raged.

The disturbing 11-and-a-half minute audio recording, obtained from a security source, reveals a conversation between Akram and his brother, Gulbar, 43, who was speaking from a police station in Blackburn in an attempt to persuade him to surrender.

In a semi-coherent ramble about American conflicts overseas, the terrorist said: “Why do these fing motherfers come to our countries, rape our women and f*** our kids? I'm setting a precedent… maybe they'll have compassion for f***ing Jews.”
