Terrorist acts, such as the Orlando massacre, highlight the many failings of the United States government in their ongoing efforts to thwart homegrown terror. Gunman Omar Mateen had for years displayed anti-American tendencies, so much so that he had been reported multiple times to the U.S. government. Despite a previous FBI investigation and a call from at least one worried gun shop owner, Mateen was allowed to purchase a gun, publically pledge allegiance to the Islamic State, and gun down around one hundred people at an Orlando nightclub.
There are plenty to blame for the massacre beyond Mateen, who obviously bares the vast majority. Strangely, however, some liberal officials have taken the opportunity to link Donald Trump to the Islamic State’s most recent terror sprees.
See how Former CIA head Leon Pineda managed to accuse Trump of “aiding” ISIS on the next page:
Leon is so out of touch with truth he cannot recognize it in any form.
Panetta has lost all credibility with Americans.
Leon Panetta is a freaking MORON!
You’re one to talk Leon you’re the one who covered up for Hillary and Barack on Benghazi and let people die
With the American people. How about that
He must have lost his mind. This happened under Obama’s watch
What an$#%&!@*
And Obama interfereing in foreign relations as we speak is OK? He is running around Europe like he is still President. Tell him to back off.
How pathetic!
Sorry Panetta. That was you and Obama
