WHY THEY HATE US, PART TOO MANY

The FBI has a lot of explaining to do about the killing of Ibragim Todashev but each attempt seems to be a FAIL.   As far as we know right now, Todsshev was unarmed when he was shot & killed by the FBI and we still don't know the details.
The FBI Changes Its Story (Again) on the Ibragim Todashev Shooting
By Dashiell Bennett | The Atlantic Wire – 3 hrs ago

Law enforcement officials are still trying to explain how a supposedly peaceful interview with an important witness in the Boston bombing case turned into a deadly shooting, but as usual, every new attempt to explain the death of Ibragim Todashev only raises more troubling questions. After originally accusing the suspect and potential murderous accomplice of Boston bomber Tamleran Tsarnaev of attacking an FBI agent with a knife, and then walking back that claim entirely, an new anonymous source says Todashev, may have injured the agent with a table and a metal pole. Or maybe not.

The weapon has no gone from nothing to a knife, back to nothing to a table to a metal pole to a broomstick. Todashev was also apparently shot more than once, after an initial volley of "several shots" somehow failed to bring him down.

Obama went right back to drone bombing innocents right after his
stylish and meaningless speech on the matter.

I think "signature" strikes are war crimes...
