Liberals on Motivation of Boston Bombings

NPR's counter terrorist correspodent Dina Temple-Raston just spoke on air to give a rationale for the bombing of Boston Marathon, where three persons died including a Chinese graduate student Lv Lingzi. Dina said Muslims in Chechnya were frustrated the US's hesitance to interfere. To quote her words, '.. two men might have been upset that the US hasn't done enough to help Chechnya in its battle with the Russians.......one of the things that really upsets them is that the United States took so long to get into Bosnia.......it took a long time and they (the US) dragged their feet......' It's not surprising to hear a liberal to show empathy for terrorists, but it's remarkable that they already started defending them even at this 'very early stage' when police and public are still trying to pieces together pieces of information.

Dina Temple-Raston is an award-winning journalist and author. She was a White House correspondent for Bloomberg News during Clinton Administration.

There is no Terrorist in China

There could be many interpretations for the exact meaning of the Chinese government's response to the bus bombings in Shanghai and Kunming, but the real logic was that the CCP government dare not face the truth that the top military country in the world is behind those bombings.

The East Turkestan Islamic Movement (ETIM) claimed responsibility of the coordinated bus bombings in Shanghai and Kunming on the eve of the 2008 Beijing Olympics. Their announcement can be found all over the Internet. In YouTube videos made by the separatist organization, it even threatened large scale bombing targeting the Olympics Games to be held in Beijing in a few days. They were also responsible for a ring of bombings of civilian targets in the past two decades. However, the CCP never acknowledge there was a problem of such.

Some of East Turkestan Islamic Movement militias were captures in Afghanistan by the US army while they were fighting along the Al-Qaeda. Despite protest of the Chinese government, the US released them so that they could continue terrorism attacks on China. The ETIM established a government on exile in Washington D.C.

If the Chinese government recognize the bombing of the ETIM, then there's the moral responsibility to protest its citizen against the terrorism attacks sponsored by the US government. For one thing, it will make corrupted officials risk their income and an retirement in the US. That's why the Chinese government when answering reporters question on the ETIM's claim of responsibility of the recent bus bombings claimed that there was no terrorism activities in China.
