Is anyone truly surprised?

Wild guess. Their families, friends and loved ones.

What sort of digging statement are you trying to make?

Have some respect.
 
Re:

This has to be the most unsettling time in human history.

A horrific situation. I hope these perpetrators are caught.

What makes a someone decide to go ahead with all this?

Do they wake up and think "I'm going to murder as many people as possible today "?

I don't understand the attraction of organised religion, I dislike and feel sorry for their followers. How can anyone disassociate themselves from their religions when this sort of horror takes the human race backwards and into darkness and paranoia?

This will just breed more hate and fracture society even more. There's already mistrust between groups in society, this will amplify this and possibly create wider division and more unrest/ fanaticism / extreme behaviour

Personally, I feel we ought to be going in on the ground in the middle east. Hard and fast.

Because that's always worked out well in the long run.
Why do you think these attacks are happening?

Look at the reaction here already, to what is (thankfully) a rare occurrence.
Now imagine seeing innocent people killed every day, by drones and planes that you can't even see.
It's not hard to see what motivates these people.
Our foreign policy is the best terrorist recruitment tool.

The sad thing is that it's generally the innocent who suffer. Sad times
 
Re:

Well said Makster

My thoughts this morning are with those poor people who have lost their lives and their families. Just too sad.

I don't think this morning is the time for political debate but I have to counter a rather silly comment.

'France has closed its borders now...too expletive late'
I should imagine that is to try and prevent any terrorists and their accomplices from escaping France. The implication that these terrorists entered France in the recent refugee influx is the narrative of the likes of The Daily Mail and The Sun.

You're right of course mate. I'll edit the thoughts in my last post.

Re:

Tis is also not part of an organised religion as has been mentioned last night and this morning. This is a terrorist act, regardless of religion, perpetrated by extremists.

Re:

I think the points raised are that there are some discussions to be had around islam, terrorism and immigration

This thread to show support for the victims however, is not it
