THE ENEMY WITHIN

It is no longer news that the 2013 Boston International Marathon was disrupted by bomb blasts which left at least three people dead and over a hundred others wounded. Perhaps what is news now is that the two bomb suspects have been apprehended with one dead in the ensuing shoot out with law enforcement agents.



It is quite worrisome that despite the billions of dollars and precious lives already lost to the war against terrorism this is happening again inside the United States. But more worrisome to me is the fact that the two suspects were not visitors to the United States but residents who had been living there for over a decade! It could also be recalled that this was the case with some of the 9/11 executors who were also discovered to have been living in the United States for some time and had even taken flying lessons there.

The time has come for the Obama regime and indeed all other governments involved in the international war against terrorism to critically look inwards with the aim of forestalling such future mayhem. It is quite clear now that the enemy within could be more devastating than the one outside.
