Thoughts on the Paris Attacks

Good article on impact of our wars and policies in regards to terrorism.
There will always be people who are persecuted and fringe elements who will respond to that persecution. When we wage wars expect the response to be even larger.
Reminds me of the movie Brazil, terrorist acts still occurring in future society as well as repression. As long as we are dealing with human beings making decisions don't expect things to be peaceful.
