        Bomber attacks those on English train. Threatens the security of all aboard train. Brings into question precisely WHAT intent- if criminal- fueled this heinous crime: was it criminal intent? Or was it purely personal intent? If it be a personal intent, in fact, was there private motive? Were the motives and intents- those essential elements separating basic facts from outright fiction- even established? If not, if the motive and intent was NEVER established, how, then, could ANY proof be gathered to argue evidence benefitting truth that would determine those guilty as well as  punish those whose false accounts violated  most basic laws upheld in societty: in courtrooms INTERNATIONALLY.  These are questions which WERE NOT asked after the first bombing, which took place at the Manchester- Ariana Grande concert just months ago. Many have not forgotten this concert, nor the tragedy that left lives destroyed, while other lives were entirely taken. The facts remain; we  haven’t forgotten the manner in which the British police did not expand on investigations,  disregarding those lives now taken, while discounting those who were injured from the bomb. Knowingly having an IED inserted into one of his orifices, the Manchester Bomber quietly maintained every personal intent, letting none know what he planned so as to continue to progress towards the finality of those crimes committed at the concert which would, in turn, promote those deeply private motives settled within his core. The lack of investigation supports the entirely insufficient amount of evidence gathered by the British police after Manchester's Own Mega “fan" did the unthinkable: going  out with a bang (no pun intended) so as to be made “infamous" for his suicide mission. Brings to mind a quote I heard long ago: “Murder can make you famous; mass murder will make you infamous.”

* Reflect on Presidential Words Below *

President Donald Trump warned of "rogue regimes" on Tuesday, speaking before the United Nations General Assembly during what he described as "a time of both immense promise and great peril."

"Terrorists and extremists have gathered strength and spread to every region of the planet. Rogue regimes represented in this body not only support terrorists but threaten other nations and their own people with the most destructive weapons known to humanity," Trump said. "Authority and authoritarian powers seek to collapse the values, the systems and alliances that prevented conflict and tilted the world toward freedom since World War II."

The president touted his administration's success but added that international criminal networks traffic drugs, weapons and people, and threaten America's borders and menace its citizens with new technology.

"To put it simply," he said, "we meet at a time of both immense promise and great peril. It is entirely up to us whether we lift the world to new heights or let it fall into a valley of disrepair."
