Lets see
- april 15: boston bombings
- suspect identified, but then dropped as pictures emerged
- israel police travel to boston to clean up
- april 18 - 19: Tsarnaev brothers identified, older one killed, younger one knifed in throat so he can't talk
- bengazi somewhere in here?
- early may: IRS scandal
- early may: AP wiretapping scandal
- june 5: guardian releases first snowden document

In the background, the syrian conflict is increasing day-by-day.

Pretty soon the credibility of the U.S. Government itself will come into question.

Not the U.K. though, they are sacrosanct.

Sacrosanctity was a right of tribunes (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Tribunes) in Ancient Rome (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ancient_Rome) not to be harmed physically. Plebeians (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Plebeian) took an oath to regard anyone who laid hands on a tribune as an outlaw liable to be killed without penalty. The term comes from the phrase sacer esto ("let him be accursed") and reflects that violation of a tribune's sacrosanctity was not only a secular offense, but a religious offense (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Religious_offense) as well.[1] (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Sacrosanct#cite_note-1)
