Times Square would make sense with the strict gun laws in NY. They wouldn't worry about a confrontation with an armed citizen. I imagine they will avoid cities like Dallas or Miami for the same reason.

Ok I am not caught up- but back and actually hesitant - it was like maybe you should do something light -- been a gruesome several days

then it was like i need to see if 187 people have been mauled then it was france 24 on its "safe" to go to WS-- was not sure if in (of course I know I would!) but maybe wait 20 minutes of it is happening somewhere else -------------again

Wednesday’s operation came after police recovered a mobile phone from a dustbin near the Bataclan concert hall, where 89 people died, Molins said, with a map of the popular concert hall. A text message on the phone, sent at 9.42pm on Friday as the Bataclan attack began, said: “Off we go, here we go again.”

funny when Iread your post , my thought was , we all "beleive" they care about being alive or dead

if they are wearing dynamite where most of us put a belt they could care less ...bot funny and horrifically sad

and that fact is hard for most to grasp,

the whole game changes if your wearing bombs on your stomach!!

CIA director Brennan admits ISIS was “decimated” under Bush, but has grown as much as 4,400% under Obama

In a speech at the Center for Strategic and International Studies yesterday, CIA director John Brennan made a startling admission: The Islamic State was “decimated” under George W. Bush and had just “700-or-so adherents left” following the surge in Iraq. Said Brennan:

[ISIS] was, you know, pretty much decimated when US forces were there in Iraq. It had maybe 700-or-so adherents left. And then it grew quite a bit in the last several years, when it split then from al-Qaida in Syria, and set up its own organization.

18 U.S. Mayors To Obama: We'll Take Even More Refugees

New York, Los Angeles, Chicago and 15 other cities are ready and willing to take in even more refugees than the Obama administration has proposed, mayors wrote in a letter to the president on Thursday.

"We will welcome the Syrian families to make homes and new lives in our cities," wrote the mayors, all of whom are part of the Cities United for Immigration Action coalition. "Indeed, we are writing to say that we stand ready to work with your Administration to do much more and to urge you to increase still further the number of Syrian refugees the United States will accept for resettlement."

Full letter at the link.

This does not surprise me one bit. i do think there are other factors than just Obama and his administration that have lead to this crazy increase but it's still alarming. Full disclosure: I'm a full blown republican and think our current president is a weak leader And am appalled by some of his comments made in the past few days, so take my opinion fwiw.

Press Conference
18 November 2015
Manila, Philippines
Prime Minister of Australia
The Hon Malcolm Turnbull MP
E&OE

http://www.pm.gov.au/media/2015-11-18/press-conference

So proud to have such an erudite, strong and wise man as our PM.

Just watched the media conference, live from Manila and, for the first time, in a long time, I was proud to be an Australian.

'I think the, in terms of the military response we have the second largest military commitment, from foreign countries, in that area after the United States as the President acknowledged yesterday and we of course will work very closely and intensely with the United States as that response evolves. Id have to say that the President and I had a very candid and deep analytical discussion of the nature of the problem.

You can sense in the room in, you could sense in the room in Antalya, there is a feeling of real urgency that there has to be a pragmatic resolution. This has gone on, this has gone on for far too long and the military measures are important, are absolutely critically important. The degradation and ultimately the defeat of Daesh is critical. But if the question is when will peace, stability, return to Syria, when will people be able to go home? That will be when there is a political resolution, and that's what's needed now. On that note, I should leave.'

On that note, so should I. 'Good day!'

So long story short, we're doing nothing.

I love you, Mrs G, but I think what we are doing right now is NOT over-reacting, and prudently assessing before the jerking of the knees....
