#5  Normally I would say that escalating tensions isn't a good thing.

But a counter offensive may pay off in the long run.

#2  The article is a masterpiece of the passive voice.

Apparently the Easter Bomb just arrived on its own for no apparent reason and with no connection to nothin'. I would say that the Charlie Hebdo attacks intimidated all media, but I really think they are all cowards anyway.
