EDIT: The FBI has since corrected themselves and are now treating it as an act of terror.
The FBI is investigating the NO attack as an act of terrorism. This is how misinformation spreads.
At the time the N.O. Mayor’s office was arguing that it was not a terrorist attack. The FBI is now looking into it as a terror attack. Things change. It happens.
EDIT: Sorry, busy morning and got it turned around. Mayor’s office said it wasn’t terrorism, FBI said it wasn’t but has since changed their tune.
The FBI special agent in charge said on a live broadcast a couple of hours ago that it was not terrorism. Maybe she misspoke. Maybe they realized the PR nightmare of that choice. But it is certainly not misinformation
Other way around, Mayor always said it was terror, FBI originally said it wasn’t. Well, one person from the FBI anyway.
The headline in your image “unclearly” states exactly that. FBI declares “not terrorism, -contradicting- Mayors statement”.
You’re right. My mistake.
Yeah because the ruling class only feels terrorized by one of them.
What is the purpose of the word “terrorist” orher than to legitimize violence done by militaries of recognized governments?? When both are essentially the same?
Please get it out of your mind that there is anything here about justice… it’s not about justice, it’s about power. It always has been, the continued fake shock of this only continues to be unproductive whining. There is no one that is confused about this, there are those who see it for what it is and those who are willingly ignorant.
Apparently this doesn’t refer to the New Orleans truck attack, since the FBI is investigating that one as an act of terrorism. Must be a different one.
They are now treating it as an act of terror but the original statement was that it was not an act of terrorism. This changed after the screenshot was taken.
EDIT: Below is a screenshot of reports at the time, before the FBI changed their tune.
So let’s keep spreading an inaccurate meme cuz the FBI can grow but we can’t? M’kay.
The screenshot includes a date and time. It was accurate at the time.
Did the guy happen to be brown or something?
And it no longer is, so you should delete it.
Did the FBI say initially say it was not terrorism? Yes. Regardless of whether or not they changed their mind later, their initial reaction is and will always be fact. That was the point of the post.
Taking shit down when you find out it’s wrong is a thing.
It’s a note for historians. And how they backtracked based on public pressure.
OP should keep the post up.
Tankie alert
Willful ignorance can in fact be a tool for historians, so at least that part of the rationalization is true,
It isn’t wrong. They said it wasn’t terrorism at first. That is and will remain a fact and it is the point of the post.

FBI suspects terrorism??? They’re both terrorism. It’s not difficult to understand
