These are all horrific incidents at any time but more so at this time of year. Unfortunately I think ISIS is determined that more acts of terror are going to follow against countries who have joined the U.S. in trying to stop their terror. As for the taliban attack against these poor children, they should be ashamed of themselves. Attacking the weak & innocent is not the sign of brave soldiers (the taliban think they are at war) but the sign of weak soldiers who are nothing but bullies. To attack a school full of young children is reprehensible & should be condemned by us all. May God bless the victims of the Sydney attack, the survivors & the victims families of the Afghan attacks & the surviving family members of the murdered victims in the Pennsylvania incident. It is small consolation that the Sydney attacker is now dead as is the man who murdered his family members in Pennsylvania. My prayers to everyone at this time.
