Terrorists are on the rampage in Paris

As Dillogic said above. It does seem like they want to be identified, so it carrying ID and placing it in a position where it's less likely to be damaged seems to be part of their procedure.

Something of small mass and high surface area is more likely to be carried by the shock wave than destroyed by it.

CNN seems to be keeping up with the facts, so here's link to their latest (2015/11/16) update of...

I still do not see what they thought they

would accomplish.

They have caused reactionary anger and

mistrust of Muslims in general, and have set

diplomatic progress back decades.

Most Muslims worldwide just want to live

safely, caring for their families, following their

faith, and being part of their communities.

These people (iSIS)are causing misery for so

many Muslims who only want to live good

lives.

You are right as usual, Sylkat.

Here in my country there is peace between the different religious groups and many of the local Muslims are law abiding shopkeepers among other things.

There's a mosque about a kilometre from where I stay, although most of them are in the northern parts of the city where most of the Muslim population reside.

Frankly, I never understood why Certain People focused their rage on the World TradeCenter.......it was just a big, poorly designed office building.

The White House is a symbol, so I understand that they wanted to destroy something beautiful that houses America's leader and his family.

The Pentagon?
Makes sense, as it is the hub of our military intelligence.

But none of the three targets were military bases, full of armed, trained soldiers who had killed Islamic soldiers in battle.

When Mohammed led troops into battle, it was part of declared war, was it not, not the founder of their religion instigating sneak attacks upon civilians who were just trying to live their lives?

I thought we; Christians, Sikhs, Buddhists, Baha'is, Jews, all who follow a faith, were to emulate the Founder-Prophet-Messiah-Guru who presented-revealed the Faith to us.

What are your media sources on this stuff, and why do you believe them?

There is no democratic opposition, Russia is actually working with elements of the FSA now in Aleppo against al-Nusra and ISIS. Since the US gave up on the FSA them they seem to see the writing on the wall and want to be involved in these peace discussions since they have no influence on the ground and will need to if they want a say in what Syria looks like whenever this awful war is over. You have the Kurds, Islamist rebels, and Assad that is the situation. There is no point distinguishing the 'rebels', there are no "good" ones. Al-Qaeda to me is not moderate, I don't care what disagreements they have with ISIS. Russia is coordinating it's attacks with SAA and Hezbollah ground forces, they're fighting a real war over territory and just randomly bombing Raqqa really does nothing. Latakia, the Alawite homeland, had come under attack so naturally that is where the defense begins. France's latest strike in Syria hit targets that were bombed multiple times by the Russians and Americans already. The idea that Russia is purposely not attacking ISIS is pure hogwash, stop listening to CNN MIC propaganda.
