    Ah,
    Found the root cause.

    Now, The Guardian reports that terrorist organisation ISIS have taken responsibility - sickeningly describing the victims as 'idolators together for a party of perversity':

    "Eight brothers carrying explosive belts and guns targeted areas in the heart of the French capital that were specifically chosen in advance: the Stade de France during a match against Germany which that imbecile François Hollande was attending; the Bataclan where hundreds of idolaters were together in a party of perversity as well as other targets in the 10th, 11th and 18th arrondissement," say ISIS.

    Why France? Of all places why there?

    It's always been France. In 1997, it was the bombs in the suburban train. We would enter the RER B looking under the seats to check if there was any abandonned bag. Once the bomb exploded in my train. Luckily that day for no apparent reason I went to the faculty earlier.
    There is an interesting article by al jazeera:

    I'm writing this backstage at Allegiance, my heart heavy with the news from Paris, aching for the victims and their families and friends.

    There no doubt will be those who look upon immigrants and refugees as the enemy as a result of these attacks, because they look like those who perpetrated these attacks, just as peaceful Japanese Americans were viewed as the enemy after Pearl Harbor. But we must resist the urge to categorize and dehumanize, for it is that very impulse that fueled the insanity and violence perpetrated this evening.

    Tonight, hold your loved ones, and pray or wish for peace, not only from guns and bombs, but from hatred and fear. If it is our freedom and joy they seek to destroy, give them not that victory. Against the forces of darkness and terror, love and compassion shall always prevail. ‪#‎JeSuisParis‬

    The light from the phone was going off right beside the one body at the exit.

    Someone's loved one reaching out to them. Utterly horrific and saddening. And maddening. F**king brainwashed psychopaths.

    Just brutal.

    And the Eagles played Tel Aviv in July with choice words for the BDS movement.

    Let us not dodge this fact.

    Why take your passport with you on a suicide mission? These guys wanted it to be found.

    They are proud of their accomplishments. They glorify in their martyrdom. Somewhere there is an old lady bringing these murderer's families candy.

    But they are also manipulative. This guy had his passport registered as being a refugee and then took that passport with him on a suicide attack. Gotta believe he did that to tie these attacks to the refugees. Purposeful and deliberate.

    I'm happy to be in the "those who wanted some evidence" camp. Can I ask who is in the other camp?

    They are soldiers in a war to the death. Everything they do is purposeful and deliberate.

    No camps. That's your term not mine. Just providing the evidence to those who requested it.

    Couldn't attend the show as we were supposed to, had three close friends in the concert hall, two are alive and well, can't get news from the third.

    We have a proverb here that says "violence is the weaks' mean of expression" Let's be strong and have no fear, love.

    We'll have to wait to see if that is confirmed.

    That's it. All the liberals are sitting around, smoking joints and hugging each other. Your tone has such a McCarthy-like zeal.

    Or... and bear with me since this just a "KRAZY" thought - perhaps they don't live in isolated homogenous bubbles and actually have experience with the religion and friends/family/coworkers who are peaceful practicing muslims (and also regular people) and therefore are able to recognize that nutjob suicide bomber terrorists are no more muslim than the westboro baptist church members are christians?

    crazy thought. I know.
