Not read enough of Rothbard.

Perhaps I've been reading everything from a different POV. Apologies.

Scary sounding stuff (explosions) at Boston Marathon

What is this world

 

[Man of Harveys]

@SkyNewsBreak: Reuters: Police have confirmed another explosion at JFK library in Boston in U.S.

I was driving home from work in Charlestown soon after the first two bombs went off and must have been driving on the expressway pretty near to the JFK museum just as this possible third one went off - it seems a big coincidence if that was an unrelated fire, although the museum is miles away from the Back Bay where the marathon finishes. And if I hadn't been working today, no question: the missus and I would have been at Fenway Park and then gone to join the crowds watching the marathon, exactly like we did two years ago.

Any murder is awful but the news that one of the victims might have been eight years old is heartbreaking.

 

[Aseros]

No sympathy for Boston. They openly supported the IRA and ultimately that lead to the death of British troops as well as countless innocent people.

Shame they didn't get you with one of their bombs.

Didn't Michel Kuipers have a stint there on loan?

Aren't you the charmer.

I'm fairly sure the dead, eight year old boy didn't support the IRA.

Crass, badly timed, and incredibly poor taste, from Aseros (and Danny Baker, for that matter).

But there is a debate to be had here at some point, because the obvious answer to your point Bakero would be:-

3 year old Johnathan Ball & 12 year old Tim Parry didn't want to 'die of the cause' in Warrington, either.

One man's freedom fighter is another man terrorist.
But as said, now certainly isn't the time for that debate.

Strange how this does not get a mention though. BBC News - Iraq deadly bombings hit Nasariyah, Kirkuk and Baghdad

Needless comment.

The politics of geographical priority. Although it is a fair point, I don't think that will ever change, it's how news circles no matter what the story.

You mean apart from the link you've provided and the countless other news sources?

No, not at all. I meant on nsc.

I stand corrected. Sorry.

Unfortunately it's all too regular an occurrence in Iraq, hence the lack of wall to wall news coverage. You can thank Tony Blair for that.

Innocent victims are innocent victims no matter the motives. I really don't see what debate is to be had at this time or another.

Strange? Why is that? We are all used to it and it is not Britain, USA or Western Europe.
