Bataclan, Pulse, and now Reina:

At least 39 people were killed and at least 69 wounded in an attack in a nightclub early Sunday as they were celebrating the new year, Turkey's Interior Minister said. "We are face to face with a terror attack," Interior minister Suleyman Soylu told reporters. Twenty-one of the dead have been identified, he said. Of those, 16 were foreign nationals and five were Turkish. US officials also called it a terrorist attack, making it the first of 2017 . . .

Around 1:15 a.m. Sunday, the gunman shot a police officer who was guarding the front gate at the Reina nightclub, killing him, Istanbul Governor Vasip Sahin said. "He entered the club and attacked innocent people who were there to celebrate the new year. It was a cruel, cold-blooded act," the governor said . . . A security camera captured the moment a gunman dressed in dark clothing dashed into the Reina nightclub as bullets ricocheted in the street. The assailant, who has not yet been identified, opened fire inside the high-end nightclub in the busy Besiktas neighborhood, according to Turkish state-run news agency Anadolu.

Relax, Kirata. ISIS/Islam is not an existential threat to the Western way of life.

They just need jobs.

Nothing to see here (there).

The brother of Reina security guard Fatih Cakmak has confirmed that he died in the attack. Mr Cakmak was working at Besiktas stadium three weeks ago when a PKK attack killed 38 people.

I second this! Terrorism has nothing to do Islam! The attackers were probably just random sick people who has nothing better to do. Not motivated by Islam at all.

I am pretty sure one of our local muses was just using Turkey as a prime example of a predominantly Muslim country that is free from this sort of behavior on the part of the locals, too.

What nonsense. No one anywhere maintains that.

You've risen straw man to a new level. There are REAL points and differences and approaches to discuss.

No sarcasm font used.

You typically preach out of ignorance.

State Department advocates 'jobs' for jihadis instead of 'killing them

That "one person" is a designated spokeswoman, moron.

And no, not clearly. Lets see you back up your claim that it wasn't accepted. You wrote, NO ONE said that. Keep backpedaling and moving goalposts, its what you do when called on the ignorance you spew

So... Surrender, or continue to experience horrific attacks.

In a religious context Islam means "voluntary submission to God". Islam is the verbal noun of Form IV of the root, and means "submission" or "surrender". Muslim, the word for an adherent of Islam, is the active participle of the same verb form, and means "one who submits" or "one who surrenders".

I second this! Terrorism has nothing to do Islam! The attackers were probably just random sick people who has nothing better to do. Not motivated by Islam at all.

It is possible the attack came from the Kurds who have been warring with the Turks forever. If so it would be about territory and not religion. The Turks, if you haven't noticed are also Muslims.

Anything is possible, but it was a nightclub, and everyone knows how much Allah hates nightclubs.

There is a lot of history there, far too much to try to deny

That point and similar points seem to consistently elude this crowd.

I have pointed out many times that radical Islam has killed more Muslims than they have westerners. That said you could be right, near as I can tell the Kurds hate everyone except maybe other Kurds.

There was a suicide bombing in Nigeria this week.
One set of the bomb early and only killed them self while the other was caught by the crowd and hung before the cops arrived.
