    Not to jump to conclusions, but I kinda suspected the U.S. would get hit after the hits on Russia, then Beirut, then Paris, then Mali, then Nigeria, then Turkey... all within the last month or so...

    ISIL central probably sent out an order to "globalize" the war as international forces are putting them under pressure in syria...

    Could be the terrorist "olympics" some media forewarned...

    Better get used to the term "president Trump"!...

    ...But maybe I'm getting ahead of myself. Let's hold out the hope that it's "just" workplace violence, since there are reports that there was an incident at the holiday party at the site, then the guy left and returned with guns...

    Other suspect killed is Tashfeen Malik, Farook's wife (or fiance)...

    Though Farook is of pakistani descent (U.S. citizen, pakistani parents), and described as "very religious", the workplace violence angle is still in play.

    "Police say they have not confirmed a motive for the shooting, but confirmed that Farook was at the party and left in a way described as 'angrily' by witnesses. Police tracked the suspects from those witness reports. Police also said they believe there was some planning involved, because of the amount of equipment used."

    So sad. The three cable news networks are talking about it non stop.

    Cue Donald Trump's "I Told You So" moment in 3, 2, 1...

    I'm not sure if this is international terrorism. It seems like at least one is an American born. It also seems like a workplace issue but we will see.

    It is a bit of a bitter sweet comment because 14 dead is still 14 dead no matter what. That is too much. I think it may be work place disturbance but god

    As an aside, why don't groups like this (Cair, in the video) get more media coverage?

    Because our cynical and jaded society only wants to talk about religion when it is involved with something negative.

    You'll NEVER know what actually happened.

    True but at the time that I posted that .... I didn't even know the names or background information of the suspects. Now, I know that. It is unlikely that we will get the full motive with the suspects being dead and all.

    Sadly, I think we are becoming desensitized to all of this violence since it is something we hear about so regularly. Frightening world.....

    It was probably terrorism but call it the same when some white boy shoots up a planned parenthood too.

    ISIS or AL Quaeda Sympathizers

    ISIS or AL Quaeda Sympathizers, just like the Boston Marathon bombing a couple of years ago.

    Will this cause more Xenophobia among Muslims/Arabic people?

    One minute your friend at the work place , the next second a domestic terrorists trying to kill you...

    It most certainly will. I was hoping it was disgruntle but it is going to be a lot harder for any one who is coming from that area.
