Bombs kill more than 30 across Iraq before local poll

[Miss.Jane]

There was a terrorist outrage yesterday.  In the west everyone heard about the Boston Bombing in which three died and a hundred or so were injured.  Meanwhile it's the same thing happening routinely in Iraq.  Iraq, where our army was sent to make the country safe for "democracy" and which was previously stable under Saddam Hussein.

One could quite imagine that the Iraqi people do not appreciate the death and destruction they suffer thanks to the US and their allies.  There would be little sympathy from that beleaguered people when the US gets a taste of its own brutality.

What was the Boston bombing really all about?

I am wondering after viewing this opinion on Facebook:

The police in Boston are SETTING A PRECEDENT. Now everytime they're looking for a criminal, they're going to be ripping people out of their homes and searching it. We have the 4th amendment in place for a reason: No warrant? Piss off. How in God's name have police managed to capture every single criminal prior to today without searching an entire city's homes?? I want to see this guy caught as much as anyone, but this is NOT the way to do it. NOT at the price of the Constitution, which these assholes are DESTROYING right now. Those who would sacrifice liberty for security deserve neither (and will receive neither).I hope everyone sues the PISS out of the police, the government, and everyone involved in this charade. I hope they're sued into oblivion, and every single cop that illegally stepped foot inside of a home is fired and charged with illegal trespass.

Also, the Chechen leader Ramzan Kadyrov made a good point indicating that America itself creates unhinged individuals, after all America is a land of all kinds of foreigners and it screws everyone up in the head.

In a statement on his Instagram, Kadyrov expressed sadness for the victims of the bombings but denied that the brothers have any ties to his region.

"It is necessary to seek the roots of evil in America," Kadyrov wrote, according to a translation from Foreign Policy.

On the face of it, it's all about human rights, but we know better. Let's say that these Chechen, Muslim refugees turned terrorist were instead "Neo-Nazis" (as some of the Australian media were pushing up until last night), there would not be a single post on Facebook talking about human rights. Any that did go that path would be denounced as supporting "Neo-Nazis" and their Facebook accounts would be closed almost immediately. Therefore, I conclude that any text anywhere denouncing the police as needlessly authoritarian are Marxists, race-traitors, muds and self-hating libertarians, all making use of the human rights system to work in their own agenda. After all, with the collective thinking of that group, you know that they see themselves as prime suspects as they defend the next series of bombers.

Yes sir, it is certainly so, as you point out: "Let's say that these Chechen, Muslim refugees turned terrorist were instead "Neo-Nazis" (as some of the Australian media were pushing up until last night), there would not be a single post on Facebook talking about human rights."
