Well.. one of our finest celebrations in the Netherlands has been disturbed... During the Queen's parade in Apeldoorn a car drove through the people and was likely going after the Queen.. there are at least 12 wounded and speculation of 1 to 4 deaths... No one knows now what really happend but speculation is strong about an attack... cause the car drove right at the moment when the queen was supposed to pass... luckly she was late the car missed her bus a few meters... Queen's day in the entire country is ruined.. My thoughts goes to the family of the victims..

I hope Islamic millitants aren't behind this possible assasination attempt.

Yet, today, America's leaders are reenacting every folly that brought these great powers [Russia, Germany, and Japan] to ruin -- from arrogance and hubris, to assertions of global hegemony, to imperial overstretch, to trumpeting new 'crusades,' to handing out war guarantees to regions and countries where Americans have never fought before. We are piling up the kind of commitments that produced the greatest disasters of the twentieth century.

So you're only considered a terrorist if you're from the middle east?!

Or if you're not from the country? He sounds like a terrorist to me.... but alright!

Anyways, that's horrible news. Was he actually driving that car, though? In the video the car was just blazing straight forward and hit the statue. I think he'd be a little better of a driver than that.....
