French Terror Attacks, scores dead

[Aroura]

Here is what I know:
I don't know what to think.  I have a lot of confilicting thoughts and feelings.  I think that the whole Islamaphobe vs Bleeding Heart Liberal is a total false dichotomy.  I think people can be both, or neither, or a little bit of each and some of something else.

I feel that Islamic extremists are a big threat to international peace, but I also think my own countries fucked up exceptionalism is a big threat to international peace.  I feel, if I'm deep down honest with myself, pangs of fear knowing that the Islamic population is growing in most western countries.  But I also feel deep sympathy for the common people trying to escape  war, oppression, etc.

So, I'm a completely conflicted being and I don't have any answers.  On this topic, I feel like bundle of illogical nerves and raw emotions.  So I find it is best I just admit that, and keep watching and doing my best to form a rational view eventually.

The one thing I do actually know is that I am deeply saddened, and feel terrible about what happened, and what is still happening, form any angle I view it. I fel bad for the whole fucking human race.  We are such monsters to each other, sometimes.
