If you're willing to advance your agenda, whatever it may be, by engaging in terrorism, then I don't think it's too big a step from there to compromising some of your ideological principles.

How true. And if you insist on holding your views regardless of real world examples, the same (but non-violently) can be said.

The French secret services. What are they doing?

Honestly, I don't know. I'm waiting to see if all these attacks are real or not. They have foiled like 10 plots since Charlie Hebdo, but honestly if something this humongous slipped through, I mean....I don't know.

The thing is though is that while large, it is not really complicated. Which makes it harder for the police to find out what is going on.

police have put a gag order on reporting. they are storming the threatre. generally this is to prevent the suspects from using the media to keep track of police movements.

There is an out of control trolley speeding towards Jeremy Bentham, who is tied to the track. You can pull the lever to cause the trolley to switch tracks, but on the other track is Immanuel Kant. Bentham is clutching the only copy in the universe of The Critique of Pure Reason. Kant is clutching the only copy in the universe of The Principles of Moral Legislation. Both men are shouting at you that they have recently started to reconsider their ethical stances.

It is, because we use the American term.

In Dutch, anyway. And in English.

Good. The police need the best possible chances to resolve the situation without further casualties.
