San Bernardino shooting: Attacker pledged allegiance to ISIS, officials say
It seems Mrs. Shooty McJihadpants pledged allegiance to ISIS on Facebook during the course of the attacks.
The whole thing seems to indicate a shocking level of amateurism. The bombs they made were apparently crap; the planning seems to have been non-existent. Extremely oddly, the landlord let the news media tromp through the couples apartment (apparently law enforcement officials are Shocked and Appalled by this); it seems reporters have found things like a half-eaten sandwich apparently abandoned on a moments notice. What that seems to indicate to *me* is that these two were planning on carrying out an attack some time in the future, but Farouk went to the Christmas party, got all P.O.’ed for some reason (perhaps his Secret Santa gave him a canned ham), raced home and told the missus “We Go Now.” Perhaps the planned target of the attack wasn’t the place that actually got attacked, but they just didn’t have the self control to wait that long. *Perhaps* that’s for the best. If they’d had more time, *perhaps* they would have made more and better bombs. But then, *perhaps* they would have been found out and arrested or, even better, they would have accidentally blown themselves to bits while making more crappy bombs.
