    The 35 dead bodies are not “concrete result” enough? Maybe its an incident of workplace violence, a misunderstanding, some oppressed refugee… Hard to say at this point. Maybe they come back for a second pass and leave their business card with a cell number written in.

    Latest is that IS has taken responsibility. For those of you that are even slightly surprised, watch Al Jazeera news a few times and will notice that there are Muslim suicide bombers killing fifty people every single day somewhere in the world.
