I've already heard in the course of the day more than enough hand wringing about "How could they do that to those innocent people?" regarding the Moscow theater attack. I guess those people forget about it when it's in service of the goals of our (or whoever's) government, because that's killed far more people than ISIS-K could even begin to on their best day. I'm surely not saying they were justified in using that tactic, just that the tactic is as old as the damn hills. Still disgusting.
Also: Steve Shaughnessy. I can't say we were particularly close, but we had a great conversation every time we saw each other. He will be missed, for certain.
