The Islamic State organization’s horrendous attack on Paris Friday night is a direct result of American national security policy since 2002.

We are lucky it was carried out against France instead of us. A comparable attack on America is likely coming, despite our liberty-limiting measures directed at preventing such acts by Islamic State forces.http://www.post-gazette.com/opinion/2015/11/18/Dan-Simpson-U-S-war-making-led-to-Paris-attacks/stories/201511170027
