Re: Why Deny?
Stu asks a very good question in the topic. Why deny?
Everyone knows there is a group(s) of Islamic fundamentalists who have openly and often threatened to attack Americans, US interests and US allies because of their support for sanctions, Israel, the occupation, etc., etc., etc.
Many times, the groups expressly claim credit for the act and then threaten whoever is next. The guys who did it and their supporters are happy about their attacks and they are useful recruiting tools to get others to join the bandwagon.
Then, you've got a group of people who vary their positions almost daily with the inconsistent positions of (1) it's chickens come home to roost; versus (2) Muslims didn't do it.
Once you accept the existence of the Muslim terror groups, it just seems so idiotic to deny every single attack that occurs.
