Heard some days ago, the Vatican was mentioned as one of the targets daesh had made threats to wards

I try to imagine what would happen with the Catholics, other Christianities and the rest of the world, how will their response be ? IF daesh attacked the Vatican

Most of the catholic people I know (including me) and even more of the Slovene people (predominately catholic) wiew Vatican as a lair of corruption and thieves and if a cardinal catches a bullet we'll say ''finally a fat bastard bought it and not a poor man''

But the culture and history of the vatican. Just one bullet hole in the Sistine chapel fresco deserves a nuke on Raqqa.

The Bulgarian secret service & KGB will send their top agents to handle that gig...possibly out of remorse for their (own)failed attempt!Even Daesh might think twice on this one... "AKBAR AL...uh just who are we messin' wid' now?!" The
Turkish gunman who shot and wounded John Paul II in 1981 laid white flowers Saturday on the saint’s tomb in St. Peter’s Basilica, Vatican officials said. That's nice!

Some food for thought (apologies if these have been posted before):

http://www.meforum.org/5478/are-muslims-fatalists

and

http://www.meforum.org/441/why-arabs-lose-wars

The latter should give some insight as to why Arab militaries seem to make heavy weather of what should be simple tasks.

If they blew up Five Finger Death Punch it would be a favor. They are the definition of crapy music.

Looks like trouble is brewing between Turkey and Russia. The Turks shot down a Russian Su-24, which they said has crossed over into their airspace.Russia says it can prove it was still over Syria. They have found one of the crewmen and are looking for the other.

I'll go to a Turkish resort as soon as they vote Erdogan and his cronies out.
After that I'd love to visit Istanbul.


Meanwhile on the interwebz, Anonymous bring out the big guns

Hostage situation reported at French town of Roubaix near Belgian border.

EDIT: Seems to be an armed robbery gone wrong rather than terrorism based.
