The sad news coming through about 60 people being killed by armed terrorists in France, how long until it hits London,Moscow,Berlin and Washington. We need to unite in the face of terror. Sad, sad times and it can only get worse by spreading to more big cities leading to more deaths. What can we do to stop this tragedy happening again.

Exactly my point * the west only care about when it happens closer to home. This was never all over the news when the atrocities in Syria / Iraq / Yemen etc. happened, so why the west? This divide is becoming more and more detrimental to global society.

Completely agreed @OxTheArtist. Media only care about the big ones, but then ignore all attacks on "poor countries". Anyway, shame on the terrorists, hope they pay for it

I disagree about the fact of ignoring 'small' countries or people far away killed by terrorists, you just have to change of media dudes, stop watching CNN or BBC and try to look for informations elsewhere, preferably local media, like if something happens in India you should read Indian news etc, i guess you get my point. In France we have a newspaper known as 'Courrier International' where it gathers many news from the world, I guess you can find a similar English version media. Ox, you told me about Lebanon earlier, actually i dont know for the UK but I know that during the 80s the Lebanon attacks and wars were well covered by French media certainly because our countries were quite tied, with a huge francophone community in Lebanon and French people of Lebanese origin also that were concerned.

Sadly It will always be this way in Free Society Where its harder to track down threats but the west must unite as one In face of threats. I have long been in favor of Merging NATO And The EU To face Terrorists And The Russian Threat
