So soon after the successful (relatively speaking) popular uprising in Burkina Faso, perhaps a few other countries are being pushed to saying enough is enough.

The news about what happened in Paris led me to this. I feel sorry for the families of those who lost their talented family members to this tragedy.

Two individuals in camo, armed with plastic rifles were arrested near Canadian government buildings today over in Gatineau, Québec.

Turns out there's come kind of comicon type of event going on, so I'm guessing "member of the public who mistook cosplayers for terrorists".

Another terror attack, this time in Tunisia.
Seems like we're moving towards sporadic attacks pretty much anywhere.

The Anti-IS coalition is on the verge of renewing its mandate, with a possible move towards a more direct role.

I wonder how quickly the world would progress if every country was friendly..

Are you serious? Pun intended.
All joking aside, I wonder the same thing. But, that's as far as it goes. Wonder.

Another tragedy. Hopefully they'll find some survivors, though that's unlikely in the mountains.
