 If you already know what's on the tapes, why do you need to hear it? Mass hysteria was and IS the terrorist's objective. | 
| Could it be that hearing his message would cause more people to support Trump, who is clearly more anti-terrorism than Clinton? This administration can’t risk that! | 
| 
 Disagreements about policy, thinking that Obama and Clinton are not doing what you think they should be doing, does not make them pro-terrorist. | 
| I don't need to hear that radical Islamic terrorist.  Nor should we allow the ISIS sympathizers anywhere in the world to copycat or experience their sick pleasure by listening ti it. When our own President leaves out the carnage and destruction of the Tsarnov brothers BOMB he left out one of the big 3 Islamic terrorist attacks on US soil in the last few years: https://www.whitehouse.gov/the-press-office/2016/06/16/remarks-president-statement-press Several issues- hamstringing law enforcement with PC, no fly, clearances, anyone buying assault weapons, monitoring/reporting. |

 I did not say either were pro-terrorist. This administration doesn’t seem to have the will to really deal with these monsters. | 
| 
 Horseshit. This administration has killed more terrorists than the last one. They just weren't getting on television for chest-thumping press conferences about all those drone strikes. This was an American citizen who legally bought an assault weapon and mowed down scores of innocent people. THAT'S something that will happen again and again and again because of a recalcitrant Congress doesn't seem to have the will to really deal with a deadly public health crisis. An entirely AMERICAN public health crisis. | 
| Yes I cannot believe the 911 tapes haven't been released yet. | 
| 
 You're kidding right? May as well link the national enquirer... | 
| 
 Because Lynch is calling it a hate crime, while at the same time saying the killer said nothing about the victims being gay. | 
| 
 So never again if Jews are involved, but if Muslims are the target, feel free to target all Muslims to reach the extremists. Ok. | 
| 
 They all suck! This is why I'm voting for Trump, sick of all these scheming career politicians. | 
| 
 Glenn Beck as model for anything = Jumping the Shark in the extreme.   |

 as a 'moderate Muslim"- totally agree. its not just the terrosists, its the community son marginalized and extreme Muslims who freak out and and take to the streets looting and burning every single time someone says something offensive who give crazy terrorists the mental boost to go out and commit murderous acts. I mean I think that the Charlie head and Danish cartoons are disgusting but I know they will offend me and I prefer to not look at them & completely ignore them. How is rioting or bombing Charlie Hebdo and killing people helping to establish a good reputation for Muhammad saw? Its totally doing the opposite. People in the world should refrain from criticizing our leaders b/c they respect them not because they are afraid that Muslims are thugs & murderers. I think they scrub the tapes b/c they don't want ISIS to feel like their strategy of claiming random attacks by lone wolves is working. Ideally ISIS should feel like the despised and filthy outcast from all human society and especially Muslims society. That is why it is prudent to frame the narrative of lone wold shooters who grab hold of whatever violent narrative is at hand to justify their acts of murder as just that and not support for ISIS. ISIS needs to feel demoralized cornered and near annihilation - that way potential recruits will think they are losers, no-one wants to fight for losers. |

 And yet, it worked. See what happens when you demonize a man? | 
| Big liberal dem here, this is a mistake (best possible interpretation). They need to either release the unedited audio, and/or unedited transcripts, or release nothing at all. Appearing to (or actually) tampering with the tapes just feeds into their critics' conspiracy theories. |
