No point in betting. That won't happen, thankfully.

A lone-wolf attack or two somewhere soft in Canada seems almost inevitable, unfortunately.

Early reports indicate he was planning to hit a public area with an IED. What is known for sure is he is no longer a threat. !

Cab driver update

Taxi driver dived from cab moments before Aaron Driver detonated bomb - Canada - CBC News

He dived out of the taxi just before our Canadian crazy guy detonated his ISIS inspired suicide belt

We have another random nut job in St. Gallen in Switzerland, yet again, on a train, this time involving young children! Europe had waned about 'lone wolf' attacks evidently. It's super that we have given lone nut bars a point of focus

ISIS are encouraging lone wolf attacks and calls the perpetrators IS solders.

although the above attack seems to be an act of passion from what the Swiss are reporting

What I would like to see is ISIS piss off Israel. I believe the continued existence of ISIS would be very short term.

No, not happened in Europe since the mid 1990's. Do you remember Bosnia?

But quite a lot of the 'irritation' that is ISIS could have been curtailed IMHO had the US dealt with the Palestinian/Israeli situation 20 to 40 odd years ago (did anyone whisper Balfour?) but we didn't and we haven't and it's going to be a non solvable problem now. Israel has been the winner in the ISIS conundrum...as long as ISIS is killing the innocent - Israel is seen as being innocent...

ISIS and Israel are separate issues. ISIS is religious fundamentalism, pure and simple, they are seeking to build their own state and export their beliefs. Not sure what more Israel could do were it 'pissed off'? Nukes (not that they admit to having any of course)? Russia and Assad are already bombing known ISIS positions to hell, hence the refugees, what would Israel do?

ISIS have been using young kids strapped with explosives, detonated from a distance. Kids as young as 12 !! This is a new low even for them !

Not really, and not surprising. There is a litany of lows in their warped history. The kid will have been brainwashed and probably proud to fulfil his religious duty.
