Watching live coverage - seems to be a decided lack of people in authority there.

Sure looks like a terror attack as more details are coming out. Guess that is what's going to continue to happen again and again when you've allowed so many Muslims into your country. Where are the pro-refugee people now? There is no good to come from letting so many of these Muslims settle in western nations.

Edit: Oh crap. CNN just said there might be another explosion at some metro station! Oh damn...

That's what western leftie libs want....be it the libs in the US..or libs in Europe. They want more and more refugees and more and more illegal immigrants. This is the failed policies of the liberal West...in play. Bleeding heart liberals. Europe is cooked sadly.
