Report: Obama Told NSC And FBI To ‘Downplay’ Terrorist Angle Of San Bernardino

The FBI has taken heat for failing to immediately classify the San Bernardino shootings as terrorism, but a new report shows that FBI reluctance could have been due to external pressure from the White House.

A source told Jack Murphy of SOFREP that the FBI instantly believed the shooting, which left 14 dead, to be a clear act of terrorism. The White House, however, didn’t feel the same way and quickly moved in to squash the terror classification.

This source added that as soon as the shooting took place, Obama convened a meeting with the National Security Council and the heads of other federal enforcement agencies to discuss a public relations strategy.

Part of the reason for trying to avoid the designation of the shootings as terrorism is because it threatens to upset the Obama administration’s strategy in Syria. A case of Islamic terrorism in the U.S. would put additional pressure on the administration to play a much more active role in the conflict.

President Obama called a mass shooting in California this week “an act of terrorism designed to kill innocent people.”

Or maybe he wanted the FBI to actually do their job first before assigning a label
.


That's what it sounds like. No surprise that the same folks always talking about waiting for the rest of the facts before passing judgment when cops shoot and kill folks readily want The President to jump to conclusions when declaring something an act of terror.:rolleyes:

It's not about jumping to conclusions

It's about interfering with the investigation. Let the FBI do their thing and the chips fall where they may.

My personal opinion is that the FBI is crooked now. We will know for sure in January when the FBI releases their conclusion on Hillary. My guess is that they will say that she did nothing wrong but if a Republican does what she did they would recommend the death penalty.

Obama is desperate to cover up for Islam. As you have pointed out before, he calls it ISIL because ISIL means the destruction of Israel. As Obama's half-sister by his mother said, they were all Islamic in her family--that would include her half-brother.

Sounds like it's about making excuses to jump to conclusions when it's convenient for your narrative.Thumbsup
