    I'm moderate too but LOL, I thought that was pretty dramatic considering its so far ahead and yes, people DO tend to forget.

    I read about that elsewhere, and apparently (just like ALWAYS), they found the guy's PASSPORT just laying there on the ground near the attacks. So, refugees now carry passports ?
    Why do these people always seem to lose their passports so conveniently (for the police) right at the scene of the crimes ?
    The news reports are all over the place, too.
    At first the reports said there were two guys with shotguns at the concert, then they reported that the police broke in and killed all three of the shooters. Yet another report said that all four of the shooters blew themselves up with their suicide vests.
    Plus, one of the first news reports said they had arrested one of them, and the first thing he said was that he was from ISIS.
    I am hoping that we are not seeing what will happen here in the next year .

    I am not entirely certain that the Paris attacks weren't a false flag event intended to suck us all into a world war, ignoring everything else that's going on.

    Anything is possible, Ken but I would need to see lots of proof for that scenario...also, Obama is not likely to go to war unless we were attacked directly by some country.

    I dont want to even think war, I have 5 grandsons and the thought of a draft scares me.

    I'm with you Ken, the world is a mess, and I don't see much of a future except more of the same.

    It is so sad to see this going on. My prayers go out to the families that have been affected by this horrible cowardly act.

    This article shows how disconnected President Obama is, from what is happening in the world. He claimed Isis is not gaining strength, we have contained them. He said this in an interview on Good Morning America the day before the terrorist attacks in Paris. My prayers go out to the families.

    Obama: ISIS Is Not Getting ‘Stronger,’ We Have ‘Contained’ Them
    by Jeff Poor13 Nov 201569,600

    Friday on ABC’s “Good Morning America,” President Barack Obama seemingly downplayed the threat of ISIS in an interview with ABC’s George Stephanopoulos that aired on Friday’s broadcast of “Good Morning America.”

    Stephanopoulos asked Obama if ISIS was gaining in strength, to which Obama denied they were.

    “I don’t think they’re gaining strength,” Obama responded. “What is true is that from the start, our goal has been first to contain and we have contained them. They have not gained ground in Iraq, and in Syria they’ll come in, they’ll leave, but you don’t see this systemic march by ISIL across the terrain.”

    “What we have not yet been able to do is to completely decapitate their command and control structures,” he admitted. “We’ve made some progress in trying to reduce the flow of foreign fighters and part our goal has to be to recruit more effective Sunni partners in Iraq to really go on offense rather than simply engage in defense.”

    Sadly, ISIS is getting stronger and stronger and along with legit refugees many have gotten into countries and are probably just waiting to strike.

    The New York Times ought to send Obama an early edition so that he can keep up on things.

    ISIS should never be confused, or be synonymous, with 'Muslim'. The Paris attacks were indiscriminate; people of all kinds of background died, including many Muslims.

    Muslims will kill anyone who doesn't agree with their faith, even other muslims. They've been killing each other as well as others for centurys. Some say most muslims are peaceful. I say they will all claim to be peaceful. Every time some horror is committed neighbors always say they seemed like such nice people.

    And they are still out there..not all were killed or captured or Im sure not all were even used that night.

    With security on high alert everywhere they might not get into a stadium or concert but a crowded mall at Christmas is not unimaginable.

    One suicide bomber in a crowd will take out quite a few people.
