    Later, I saw a convoy of minivans from the Nice coroner’s office arrive. The local paper reports that the terrorist was “of Tunisian origin,” which surprises no one, of course. But since he was killed by police, President Obama may never know his real motive.

      something going on in Turkey!...

      tanks are on the street in Istanbul, nobody knows what happens. but the rumour has its a coup d'etat or at least a try
      Love all, trust a few, do wrong to none; be able for thine enemy rather in power than use; and keep thy friend under thine own life's key; be checked for silence, but never taxed for speech.

          Some Indian Muslims too have joined ISIS, and some missing. Nimisha became 'Fathima' and disappeared. We are in for a bad time. The high population density in cities will increase the kill ratio, if such attacks take place.

            The question then becomes how does the West defend itself against this type of attack?

                Well worded.

                Today, FP was asking "How to be intolerant with intolerants, while cherishing tolerance". Something among those lines.

                  FP seems unable to discern between right and wrong,danger and safety.

                      No...not in a literal sense unless we include some of the monsters prevalent in today's musical industry. Plenty of 'em!

                          He is more than just a musician. He is a political activist. Duh!

                            Yes, a political activist living in a 4 star hotel knows more than UNPROFOR about monsters.

                              Where he sleeps is totally irrelevant to what he says and does. You should know that? Plus these days 4 star hotels are lame......they have 6 star hotels. I bet the head of Amnesty International sleeps in a better hotel than 4 stars.

                                I've slept in the mud in between two sets of monsters bent on killing each other.
