Thomas Lifson "Barack Obama’s outrageous labeling of the shootings at the Hyper Cacher market in Paris as “random” caused Josh Earnest and other administration flaks to come up with a rationale that was ridiculous at the time. But now, release of tapes from the slaughter makes the justification look ridiculous.
"Obama told Vox.com that “you've got a bunch of violent, vicious zealots who behead people or randomly shoot a bunch of folks in a deli in Paris," sparking outrage over the denial of the obvious – that Jews were targeted because they were Jews. When pressed at a press briefing, Press Secretary Josh Earnest fell back on some linguistic fast-footwork:
"The adverb that the president chose was used to indicate that the individuals who were killed in that terrible, tragic incident were killed not because of who they were but because of where they randomly happened to be."
