Cho was clearly a disturbed person who obsessed about women and couldn’t resolve his attraction to them with his apparent prudish beliefs. He seem to stalk women only to find them promiscuous.

Iran is back at their lethally dangerous games as they expand their deadly meddling beyond Iraq and now into Afghanistan: U.S. forces recently intercepted Iranian-made weapons intended for Taliban fighters in Afghanistan, the Pentagon’s top general said Tuesday, suggesting wider Iranian war involvement in the region. It appeared to be the first publicly disclosed instance […]

The enigma of “Ismail’s Ax”, scrawled on the arm of the killer responsible for the deaths of 32 people at VA Tech is rapidly turning into a stubborn puzzle. The Chicago Tribune has this to report on their search for a possible meaning to the phrase: One theory spreading across the Web speculates that it […]

The copycats echoing the massacre at VA Tech across the country are simply traumatizing kids and parents everywhere – they are terrorizing them with the same fear the VA Tech family experienced. ampus threats forced lock-downs and evacuations at universities, high schools and middle schools in at least 10 states on Tuesday, a day after […]

Readers have been commenting on the anguish the parents of Cho Sueng-Hui are going through and it is probably true they are as shocked as anyone, looking for the answer to why their son/brother did this. My heart does go out to them because not only are they asking why, they are probably taking on […]
