Handing the World's Seventh Largest City to Terrorists
(9 comments) Anyone notice the mainstream media covering this? To imagine that the world's seventh largest mega-city could be handed over to a terrorist organization and gunmen for political reasons is unimaginable.

What a sad conclusion and indictment.
