Harsh words, Burning Bush. Can you not wait until the dead are buried?

Yes, Baghdad has this every week, and, even if paid lip service, is soon brushed under the carpet, or blamed on the latest set of thugs born out of the anarchy there.

A lot of nettles must be seized in order to de-escalate this whole shameful catastrophe.

Enough rhetoric...more action needed...actions speak louder than words.

Another terrible news. I'm pretty sure that many countries will attack ISIS as retaliation and that ISIS will say "They killed our brothers." This seems endless. What's a possible breakthrough here? A negotiation? probably no..... I don't know what should be done any more.

all so sad. this type of event is a natural response but achieves little. and kind of agree that we don't see anything like the same sympathy for the thousands being killed and maimed in Iraq and Syria and Afghanistan. Which is why there are so many willing recruits for ISIS and Al Qaeda and other lunatic organisations. There is no reasoning with these people or trying to pray on their sympathy. and limited military intervention is also a waste of time. Just get out of interfering in the Islamic world and let them get on with whatever they want to do in their own countries..... Not bombing etc will remove at least one reason for them wanting to inflict this kind of atrocity on European and other "western" cities.
