Nasty events. They appear to have been especially targeting Britons and Americans.

My thoughts and prayers go out to all those affected.

MODU is correct here. One has to remember that AK-47s are very cheap in relative terms- and very easy to use.

No, you can get them from Afghanistan or areas of Pakistan pretty easily, I believe.

This is really weird to me.

This isn't the MO of a AlQaeda-esque groups we're used to.

They're really acting like the terrorists that were more prevalent during the 70s.

Change of tactic, perhaps. Madrid was also different from the norm- remote detonation.

Quite. I use "Al-Qaeda" in speech-marks because it's a disparate organisation and I need to refer to it on a collective level.

Al-Qaeda is a franchise, basically.

I support rooting out the root cause of this evil. It's just I don't think it's Islam itself.
