100% verifiable facts or your money back. Anti-fascist. Enemy of woo - theistic or otherwise. Cloth is not an antiviral. Imagination and fantasy is no substitute for tangible reality. Wishing doesn't make it real.

Terror attack in Brussels is exactly a year ago. But those guys in London have so far been a lot less organized and less effective.

Erdogan? Putin? Lil' Kim? Trump? Mugabe?

Could be anyone, so lets not jump to conclusions.
Yeah well that's just, like, your opinion, man.

With the IRA boss having just died, maybe his successor wants to show force. The IRA has usually used bombs instead of cars and knives, but even the Irish have to go with the times.

Unlikely, IRA did pub bombings and drive by shootings, not this kind of bungling

Wow, well, he was in a marginalized, disfavored group which has been traditionally subjected to invidious discrimination and systemic oppression, so society is to blame.
