It has been a horrible year indeed for humankind....... and I agree, there's no end to all this.........

Friends and family in Italy are saying they or Germany are next. I would have brushed it off before as paranoia, but now I am not so sure......

Sad indeed, and this symbolic attack on the capital state of the EU leaving many dead, Humanity seems to be working down a dark road.

Yes Tim, sadly we have to carry some of the blame.

I have been reading where they claim Belgium was not contributing to the upkeep of security in terms of terrorist infiltration. The EU has been making sure that Europe pulls together. They further claim Belgium was deep in trouble economically and this was bound to happen sooner than later.

Sorry to say a lot of countries are going to find themselves waking up to this type of
tyranny.
Isis does not have a face, that makes them very difficult to defeat.
What a madness, it is as if Isis is fighting humanity.

I see ISIS as the present boogeyman for the furtherance of the world MIC, they cannot sell their toys if there is peace now can they? Declaring war on an amorphous enemy like a concept such as terror or drugs will never end, so always ways to prove their toys can do a job and earn them more contracts.
