Because nowadays the media and the governments of this world use lots of propaganda and like to blame the enemy for something they didn't do.
It stated the suspect(Who tried to hire the car) was off arabic appearance

A Pentagon spokesman said Thursday he doesn’t know whether the suicide bomber that blew up a bus full of Israeli tourists in Bulgaria was a former Guantanamo Bay detainee.
Bulgarian media identified the bomber as 36-year-old Swedish-born Mehdi Ghezali and said he’d been held at Guantanamo between 2002 and 2004, the Times of Israel reported. At least seven people — including five Israelis, the Bulgarian bus driver and the bomber — died in Wednesday’s attack at the airport in the city of Burgas.
“I’m aware of reports that we’re recently seeing out of the region,” said Pentagon spokesman George Little said, according to Politico. “I cannot confirm those reports at this time.”
Little said he “can’t rule it out, either,” according to The Hill.
“I‘m simply saying we don’t know at this stage,” he said......
Bulgarian media on Thursday named the suicide bomber who blew up a bus full of Israeli tourists, killing five Israelis and a local bus driver, in the Black Sea resort of Burgas on Wednesday as 36-year-old Mehdi Ghezali.
Ghezali reportedly arrived in Bulgaria five weeks before the bombing and arrived at the airport via taxi, Channel 2 reported. He was also reportedly given the bomb by someone else, but no further details were provided.
There was no independent confirmation of the veracity of the information. The reports surfaced soon after Israel’s Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu had publicly accused Hezbollah, directed by Iran, of responsibility for the bombing. The Prime Minister’s Office made no comment on the reports....
A 2005 Swedish documentary about the Guantanamo Bay detention camp starred Ghezali, who detailed his experience in American custody.
He was also reportedly among 12 foreigners captured trying to cross into Afghanistan in 2009.
There was no independent confirmation of the veracity of the information.

not in Israel, I think they can establish DNA link within 7 days due to the techniques they use
The DNA could well be from some poor Palestinian in an Israeli underground prison murdered weeks ago and his body parts in the bag delivered with the bomb.
There is no outrage beyond the capabilities of a Mossad Kidon unit.
I live in a civilized part of the world, and whole-heartedly approve killing Hezbollah militants along with members of many other terrorist and criminal organizations. And it is not really illegal - it is extrajudicial, much like US targeting militants abroad.
They are a recognized enemy of multiple nations. I think the Radical Islamists' intentions and attitutes towards others (other Muslims, non-Muslims, etc.) are well known and documented. This is clear by events around the world. As such, I approve neutralizing them through extrajudicial means.
They have targeted Americans before. And they are tied to a larger chain of Islamist factions.
To be clear I don't support Israel's and US's actions in many cases, or agree witht he War of Terror tactics. I simply believe that Hezbollah is one of several global factions whose primary stated intentions are to kill and terrorize civilians. As such, their extermination would align with my interests and morals.

Just a little inconsistony on the suspected suicide bomber,
Maybe its just a bit off lazy reporting ..
Bulgarian prosecutor Kalina Chapkanova said that a man believed to be the bomber had tried to rent a car in Pomorie, near Burgas, days before the attack, but was refused because the picture on his driving licence showed a man with long hair while the would-be customer's was short.
But the suspects hair in the airports security moniters is very long.

The first thing what I thought when seeing that picture a few days ago is; he's wearing a wig.
The Times of Israel also reports that the man was a former Guantanamo Bay detainee.
