The pop star Ariana Grande has canceled the remaining dates of her "Dangerous Woman" tour following the murder of 22 fans (at the time of writing) and the injury of dozens more at her concert in Manchester. The Manchester Royal Infirmary reports that half the victims brought to the hospital overnight are children. The killer was a suicide bomber. Theresa May says the police believe they know his identity. The usual, predictable details will follow. [UPDATE: He's Salman Abedi, the Manchester-born son of Libyan refugees and another "known wolf".]....
...Carrying on in Germany, Angela Merkel pronounced the attack "incomprehensible". But she can't be that uncomprehending, can she? Our declared enemies are perfectly straightforward in their stated goals, and their actions are consistent with their words. They select their targets with some care.

yup, that sums it up well
Hard edged truth.
bkmk
Those are the Brits we need back.
They’ve put the British army on the streets. The level of security theater is HIGH!
The part I heard that Hannity replayed, was infuriating.
All she talked about was the gallantry of the rescuers. Nothing about fighting the enemy (or even about the enemy at all).
Our small Canadian city is swarming with Syrian “refugees”. I see these families with their large groups of children and realize that in ten years, after being fed hatred towards the country that gave them refuge by their parents and imams, that some of them will become violent jihadists. And the rest will either cheer them on - overtly or silently. We’ve injected ourselves with an unstoppable cancer, always growing and mutating.
=> The second generation Muslim refugee is in every way worse.
“We’ve injected ourselves with an unstoppable cancer, always growing and mutating.”
And we refuse to treat the cancer...actually consider it important to our “health” as opposed to a disease.
Where we are really sick in the West, is in the head.
One of the best statements
I have read about Islamic terrorism. Maybe Mark ‘s best.
Uh oh. Must be a security level of “double secret critical.”
They’ve put the British army on the streets. The level of security theater is HIGH!
The UK army is out make sure that the Jihadist are safe.
Sums it up.
And those who were injured but survived now have to survive British national health care. And I am not being sarcastic. To another post having the army patrol the streets in another otherwise usual day is not good either. This us not what they trained to do, like police. In my town would be more comfortable knowing many civilians were carrying than have soldiers patrolling. No offense intended. I am a former tanker.
A soldier’s proximate goal is different than a policeman’s proximate goal.
Maybe Strategically similar, but very different tactically. And competently trained, their training reflects that.
As I asked around Europe all last year: What's the happy ending here? In a decade it will be worse, and in two decades worse still, and then in three decades people will barely recall how it used to be, when all that warmth and vibrancy of urban life that Owen Jones hymns in today's Guardian is but a memory, and the music has died away, and Manchester is as dull and listless as today's Alexandria.
