🕰️🌞 What happened today? 🤷‍♀️🤓 Tout et rien

8️⃣ On this day in 2015, terrorists staged coordinated attacks in Paris and its environs, the deadliest occurring at the Bataclan theatre and concert hall; in all, at least 130 people were killed and more than 350 were wounded. I hope that nobody of the French members of PPG were in Paris when the attacks were and that their families were not harmed! 🙏🙏

i have never understood how you can be so attached to a religion that you kill for it.
why does this happen almost exclusively in islam?

Today is 13 November and this happened on this date in the past:

1️⃣ On 13 November 1002, English King Ethelred II launched an attack against Danish settlers in the St. Brice's Day massacre.

2️⃣ George Grenville, the English politician whose policy of taxing the American colonies started the train of events leading to the American Revolution, died in London on 13 November 1770.

3️⃣ During World War I a four-month Allied offensive against German positions along the Somme River ended on this day in 1916.

4️⃣ On 13 November 1918, Egyptian patriot Saad Zaghloul formed Al-Wafd al-Miṣrī (Arabic: “Egyptian Delegation”), the nationalist political party that was instrumental in gaining Egyptian independence from Britain. Maybe this news is nice for you to read @Sarahsalah27 because it is about Egypt! 🙂

5️⃣ The animated film Fantasia had its first public screening on 13 November 1940, and it became one of Disney's more controversial works, derided for its portentousness and praised for its stunning visual virtuosity.

6️⃣ Martin Scorsese's Raging Bull, a biopic about boxer Jake La Motta, had its world premiere today in 1980. It became an American classic, especially known for the Oscar-winning performance of Robert De Niro.

7️⃣ On the heels of the U.S.-led invasion of Afghanistan prompted by the deadly terrorist attacks of September 11, the army of the anti-Taliban Northern Alliance captured the capital city of Kabul on 13 November 2001.

8️⃣ On this day in 2015, terrorists staged coordinated attacks in Paris and its environs, the deadliest occurring at the Bataclan theatre and concert hall; in all, at least 130 people were killed and more than 350 were wounded. I hope that nobody of the French members of PPG were in Paris when the attacks were and that their families were not harmed! 🙏🙏

9️⃣ These people were born on this day: Christian bishop and theologian St. Augustine (354), king of England Edward III (1312), American actress Whoopi Goldberg (1955), Scottish actor Gerard Butler (1969) and Dutch politician Ayaan Hirsi Ali (1969).

Of course, today is the anniversary of the founding of the Egyptian Wafd Party, which was an ancient political party founded in 1918, and has a prominent role in Egypt’s modern history. The party was the voice of the Egyptian people for independence from Britain, especially after the 1919 revolution led by Saad Zaghloul, which made it a symbol of the demand for independence, freedom, and democracy.

Thank you @Yue for mentioning this.

They are very extremist and backward terrorists, and the religion of Islam is innocent of them.

yes, i am sure...it is so sad

Many don't view the world as western civilization does. And ultimately, it's fine. The real problem is western countries welcoming them en masse when there is a clear cultural disconnect.

That's right, I really cry when I hear such heinous terrorist acts.

I remember when they were talking about it on the TV. I was 10. We didn’t know anything until the next morning when I switched on the TV. We experienced such a feeling of dread and insecurity… The images and the screams of the people… Petrifying.
When we came back to school after the week end, the teachers had cancelled all classes, and made a special lessons on France, rights and liberties, and the dangers of terrorism. It is clear these people "in the name" of our religion (that they tarnish), could commit such horrible crimes.
Thank God, nobody from my family got hurt, but I have thoughts for the families of the victims who died from this horrendous night. 🕊️ This is a duty of rememberance as well.

Thank you everybody who wrote and posted comments. I love this emoji that @Sabri_KC used: 🕊️

I like it because it is a white pigeon or dove right. And that is the symbol of peace and the symbol of luck if for example you get married. And the people who died i hope that they have peace even if something very terrible happened.

So this is for all the victims of the Paris attacks and anywhere of terrorism in any country at any time:

On this day in the year 1919: The events of the 1919 Revolution continued, as Egyptians came out to demand independence from Britain. This revolution became one of the most prominent stations in Egyptian history, and one of the popular movements that strengthened national awareness among Egyptians and later led to the achievement of partial independence.
