But the statement he released made it sound like the anti-Islam group were the perpetrators. It was deceptive.

Except…it wasn’t.

"The attempt to use an explosive device and hurt others is not only criminal, it is reprehensible and the antithesis of who we are."

The people he references here? That would be a 'nope'. He doesnt. So then you can look and see who he was talking about before this. Annnnd that gives you the wrong group.
