CAL THOMAS COMMENTARY JANUARY 3, 2025
ANOTHER EXAMPLE THAT EVIL EXISTS AMONG US OCCURRED EARLY NEW YEARS DAY MORNING IN NEW ORLEANS WHERE AN APPARENTLY RADICALIZED ARMY VETERAN AND U.S. CITIZEN DROVE A RENTED TRUCK INTO A CROWD OF CELERANTS, KILLING 15 AND INJURING DOZENS MORE.
THE FBI SAYS IT WAS A TERRORIST ATTACK, AS WAS A TRUCK BOMBING IN LAS VEGAS THE SAME DAY WHICH KILLED THE DRIVER.
THE ALLEGED NEW ORLEANS KILLER, SHAMAUD DIN JABBAR, HAD PLEDGED HIMSELF TO THE ISLAMIC STATE IN A POSTING TWO HOURS BEFORE THE INCIDENT. AUTHORITIES SAY JABBAR AND THE LAS VEGAS DRIVER, WHO ALSO HAD A MUSLIM NAME, SERVED ON THE SAME MILITARY BASE.
POLICE SAY JABBAR APPARENTLY HAD RENTED AN AIR BNB NEAR THE SIGHT AFTER HAVING DRIVEN FROM HOUSTON. THESE WEREN’T ILLEGAL ALIENS, ALTHOUGH THE FBI IS LOOKING FOR CONSPIRATORS WHO APPARENTLY GOT AWAY IN NEW ORLEANS. PRESIDENT BIDEN SAYS WE SHOULDN’T JUMP TO CONCLUSIONS. REALLY?
IT REMINDS US THAT SOFT TARGETS ARE EASY TO HIT AND THAT WE ARE NEVER SAFE FROM FANATICS. I’M CAL THOMAS.
