Fuck all the islamists. Go blow yourselves in a corner. They have ruined this country's future. They are all sick in the head. They care about aleppo while we lose police and soldiers everyday.

It is almost as if people respond to terrorist attacks particularly unwell around christmas time and the emotional pain could be exploited by multiple parties fuelling such conflicts.

When are we all going to understand that violence leads to only more violence? (this goes to all sides)

I am personally discusted by surströmming and have built ikea furniture since I could walk. My knowledge of ikea furniture and pronunciations are of the highest kaliber I can also cook a mean burger!

You are the best suited candidate! And with the killing of this guy, the dead people in Germany and three people shot in a mosque in Switzerland, a bunker would be the safest place for sure

Arabs lived in constant violence for centuries. Nothing changes for them. They are not educated to understand that.

For those who accuse Russia in the killings in Syria. Seriously, you are peace-loving pacifists. Tell me how you can take away from the terrorists a huge metropolis, with no civilian casualties? Or is it better to left it to terrorist? Didnt you realised that western media was talking about Aleppo only when Syria+Russia was starting war activities to retake it, but same media and politics were silence as fuck all the time city belonged to these terrorist, that were executing peaceful citizent every day?
And I'm not just talking about an Islamic state, there also were a lot of other terrorist groups such as al-Nusra.
If you take Mosul and your media do not show the killed civilians, you know, it doesnt means that civilians were not killed during the war compaign of taking god damn big city with sh1t much of terrorists fortification points.
Nothing can justify the murder of Ambassador.

And in the Saturday Morning Cartoon version of events, all assassinations are, you know, exactly like Franz Ferdinand date with destiny.

Franz Ferdinand does have a modern parallel, though.

Look at it this way: A Slavic country used its intelligence apparatus to "influence" succession in a rival state.

Seems like no1 cares abauth ambasador:


Its very similar situation like the guy in china standing infront of the tank.

[Gamevizier]

this was clearly an act of terror as the gunman was clearly motivated by political and religious reasons. it is sad that the media is trying to cover this by mostly refering to it as an "assassination" and not a terror attack, the guy is screaming his lungs out about Syria and Allepo and Jihad. but his victim was the -russian- ambassador so most of the media are refraining from using the "terror" label.

apparently, terrorists only target western countries.

99% of all terrorist attacks is muslims against other muslims, we only get a very small portion of that love.

Now this is how you justify the indiscriminate bombing of hospitals and civilians. All you have to do is frame the destruction of a city as a consequence of "fighting the terrorists" and dismiss civilian casualties as "collateral damage." Anyone who wants to step up their Russian/Assad regime apologist game should take notes.

He will go down in history as a scumbag who shot his defenseless victim in the back. At least he got what he deserved. To be shot down like a mad dog.

The world has changed. That type of warfare is no longer acceptable. Largely because incidents like the Bombing of Dresden which you cited contributed to make it unacceptable.

Army Lt. General Sean MacFarland, the U.S. commander directing the fight against Islamic terrorists in Iraq and Syria, says the United States is "bound by the rules of armed conflict," so "indiscriminate bombing" is out of the question.

"At the end of the day, it doesn't only matter whether or not you win, it matters how you win," Gen. McFarland told reporters by teleconference from Iraq on Monday.

Quoting Winston Churchill, McFarland also said the U.S. is "closer to the end of the beginning of this campaign than we are to the beginning of the end."

A reporter told the general, "People begin to ask the question, so why isn't the U.S. military just engaging in so-called carpet bombing in Iraq, in Syria? ...The theory goes, if you would just do something like that, this would go much quicker."

"You know, as I mentioned earlier, we are bound by the laws of armed conflict," McFarland responded. "And, you know, at the end of the day, it doesn't only matter whether or not you win, it matters how you win. And we're the United States of America, and we have a set of guiding principles and those affect the way we as professional soldiers, airmen, sailors, Marines, conduct ourselves on the battlefield.

"So indiscriminate bombing, where we don't care if we're killing innocents or combatants, is just inconsistent with our values. And it's what the Russians have been accused of doing in parts of northwest Syria. Right now we have the moral high ground, and I think that's where we need to stay."

Earlier in the briefing, McFarland explained that the U.S. tries to minimize the potential loss of innocent life with every air strike it conducts.

"So we have these very sophisticated programs, computer programs, to look at density of urban terrain, and we and look at the weaponeering of our -- of our aircraft and the bombs that they drop to be as precise as we possibly can. And when we hit these targets, I mean, we'll drop multiple bombs through the same hole and completely contain the destructive effects within the confines of that building.

"That's the kind of precision that we bring to a fight, and we use that every single day, our airmen do, with their incredible skill and courage to protect the lives of innocent civilians even while we are degrading the finances of these terrible, terrible people known as ISIL."

And this is why the Russian Federation is and continues to be, the villains of the story.

You Putinistas can think what you want, but this is the professional position of the then-three star American General in charge of the ISIS fight.
