I’d have to lean ISIS.

They are too stupid to realize Turkey did them a favor.

I was gonna have Taco Bell while my car was worked on. Had some Panda Express (first time). Some rude 18-20 chickadee tried to cut in line from behind me.

I asked why I could not finish ordering first. Gee, I’m rude.

I don’t think there is any Muslim concentration large enough or extreme enough to start a general conflagration. We can look forward to many pocket wars and terrorist actions. As to what is going on within Islam, we only have to look at the history of Europe in the 200 years following Martin Luther’s declaration at Wittenburg. Consider how many Christians killed and were killed because they were Protestant or Catholic. Like Shia vs Sunni. Remember: “Those who fail to learn the lessons of history are doomed to repeat them.” I see big history lessons in our immediate future.

Eat yogurt with live cultures. My husband’s gas was so bad that he once cleared out a small railroad depot, on another occasion a shack full of hound dogs. I started giving him yogurt and within a week he was a much less fragrant fellow. One night when staying with friends, he came out of the bathroom and then hopped into bed, suddenly gas attack. “Why the heck didn’t you do that while in the bathroom,” I said. “I’m innocent, I’m innocent,” he cried. “Yeah, a likely story,” I replied. Just then we heard a noise, looked under the bed and there was our host’s elderly pooch, Laddie Boy. “See, I told you I was innocent,” said hubby as he chased the dog out of the bedroom.

Why haven’t you set up a Profile page? You sound like an interesting guy. My son served in Gulf War I, and 2 tours in Afghanistan, 82nd Airborne and Special Forces. We need more people here who actually know something!

If not a lot of people were killing, I’m guessing Spetsnaz.

ISIS or... FSB?

Couldn't possibly be ISIS! Ohaha says they're contained. Besides, he told us today we're all safe, and the DNC has all kinds of neat talking points to discuss over turkey.

Sorry to interrupt everyone's hopes and dreams of random Turkish citizens being murdered by terrorists, but further reports state that a malfunctioning CO2 tanker at a small petchem facility outside of Ankara caused a small explosion.

"Certainly an accident, of course! A terrible tradgedy!"

“Could we be closer to another world war?”

Closer? Right in the middle of it. Only the “Pearl Harbor” hasn’t happened. Yet.

Tell your son we’re proud of his service. Had the honor of working many years with guys of his ilk and am a better man for it, and still have many of his fellow SF guys and other Tier 1 forces as close friends.
