Paul Craig Roberts Asks “Why Aren’t ISIS Targeting Politicians?”
American economist Paul Craig Roberts has raised the pertinent question: Why do terrorists focus on attacking ordinary civilians, leaving politicians largely alone?
The 9/11 attacks, the Boston marathon bombing, and the recent Paris attacks all have one thing in common: The only people who suffered were innocent members of the public who had absolutely nothing to do with the politics and ideology that the attackers were apparently fighting against.
Off-guardian.org reports:
Historically, terror attacks are not on the innocent but on the rulers and those who are guilty. For example, it was the Archduke of Austria/Hungary who was assassinated by the Serbian terrorist, not ordinary people blown up or shot down in a street cafe.
It is interesting that terrorists attacks attributed to Muslims only fall upon ordinary people, not upon the political elites who oppress the Muslims. In past years on several occasions I have remarked in my columns on the total vulnerability of the neoconservatives to assassination. Yet there has been not a single attack by terrortists on a neocon life, and the neocons are the source of the violence that Washington has unleashed on the Muslim world. The neocons walk around without threat free as birds.
How believeable is it that Muslim terrorists take their ire out on innocents when the President of France himself, who has sent military forces to murder Muslims, was sitting in the attacked stadium and could easily have been eliminated by a suicide bomber?
Now let us turn to questions of identification of the alleged “Paris terrorists.” Is it realistic to suppose that the millions of refugees from Washington and its European vassals’ wars in the Middle East have passports? Were these millions of refugees expecting to be driven by White Civilization’s Bombs out of their countries and thus had prepared themselves with passports in order to flee?
