President Obama calls the Boston Marathon bombings acts of terror

Boston

President Obama has officially stated what I think we already knew, that the Boston Marathon bombing was an act of terror.

From Politico Breaking News:

“This was a heinous and cowardly act and given what we now know about what took place, the FBI is investigating it as an act of terrorism. Anytime bombs are used to target innocent civilians, it is an act of terror,” Obama said at the White House. “What we don’t yet know however is who carried out this attack or why, whether it was planned by a terrorist organization, foreign or domestic, or whether it was the act of a malevolent individual.”

Obama said he had just been briefed by his national security team, but information about those responsible and any motives was still coming in. He promised continued briefings on the situation throughout the day.

“We will find whoever harmed our citizens and bring them to justice,” Obama said. “We also know this: the American people will not be terrorized.”

It’s important for people to remain patient while the facts are being determined, too many rumors and wild stories of Facebook pages for the victims being created 2 days before the bombing floating around.

***At 1st I hesitated in adding the link about the Facebook page being deleted, but then it’s important to at least see the rumors flying around.  In no way do I endorse the Facebook story!***

As always….

If there is something to be said, “It’s On Broadway” to step up and say it!!
