The Mote in Your Neighbor’s Eye

The Washington Post featured this headline recently: Russia is seeing conspiracies in Armenia where none exist.

So, given the past decade of false terror warnings from the FBI and the Department of Homeland Security, as reported by Adam Johnson in FBI and Media Still Addicted to Ginning Up Terrorist Hysteria – But They Have Never Been Right, why hasn’t the Washington Post ran the headline:

USA is seeing terrorists where none exist

How does that go? Maybe the Washington Post should take the plank out of its eye so it can see more clearly the world around it.

PS: Will there be a terrorist attack in the United States someday? Sure, but warning about them for hundreds if not thousands of days in between demonstrates a lack of good judgement.
