anniversaries. unfortunately one of the things we learned with our international experience of terrorist attacks over the last 15 years is that they are more frequently than you think tied to anniversaries, and i tell you, may or may not be a coincidence, but may 22nd, 2013 was that horrific attack on the streets of london where a british soldier named lee rig by was attacked for no reason at all, beheaded in the street by two men who then ranted to cameras and passers by until they were arrested saying they killed him for their own political views, for their radical islamic views. do you think that that s something relevant as a thread likely to be a coincidence until proven otherwise? rachel, it s a great question. i tend to believe it tends to be a coincidence until proven otherwise. operatives taking advantage of the opportunity they have before
