Lets start with sweden, it was believed to be a terrorist who drove into a building and killed many, and before that in london killing five an a police officer. Can you talk about how frightening this is and challenging it is for law firm to protect to prevent these . Unfortunately we have seen it not in stockholm and london but before that in berlin as well in nice, france, so this unfortunately is part of attacks that authorities have to worry about, they have to worry about highend attacks and perpetrate big stacale attacks willing to e low tech amerimechanisms.

Were these strikes on thursday, were they symbolic or in fact strategic and substantive . Reporter they were meant to obviously punish for Chemical Attacks to deter assad regime from taking further action but also demonstrate willingness to use u. S. Force to back up its words and threats. That was important with respect to the assad regime but also to send a message to russia, and even as the chinese premier was visiting maralago, that would be willing to use force even if steps werent taken by the chinese, so i think this had more significance than sending tom hawks into an air base. The United States has three options, one of those apparently providing south caroli providing south korea with Nuclear Weapons, in your opinion is that a good idea . I think the signal thats happening not only to north korea but also to china i think the linchpin and you have heard from experts in the United States and around the world is can you convince china to change its posture and pressure the North Koreans to stop its march toward Nuclear Capabilities that can strike the United States. This is a signaling mechanism to china that if things dont change the u. S. May have to make more aggressive measures to include potentially putting nucle Nuclear Weapons into the hands of t to change the diplomatic relationships between them.

So, i finally broke the silence with my doctor about what i was experiencing. He said humira is for people like me who have tried other medications but still experience the symptoms of moderate to severe crohns disease. In clinical studies, the majority of patients on humira saw significant symptom relief. And many achieved remission. Humira can lower your ability to fight infections, including tuberculosis. Serious, sometimes fatal infections and cancers, including lymphoma, have happened; as have blood, liver, and nervous system problems, serious allergic reactions, and new or worsening heart failure. Before treatment, get tested for tb. Tell your doctor if youve been to areas where certain fungal infections are common, and if youve had tb, hepatitis b, are prone to infections, or have flulike symptoms or sores. Dont start humira if you have an infection. If youre still just managing your symptoms, talk with your gastroenterologist about humira. With humira, remission is possible.
