No ref for Trudeau. Can we please stop with the wall of "thoughts and prayers" reactions? --LaserLegs (talk) 00:22, 24 March 2018 (UTC)Reply

The Canadian response does require a source and if one is not found soon it will be removed, but if a country's representative responds with simply "thoughts and prayers" then that is what will be displayed, even though it is disappointing. BrendonTheWizard (talk) 00:43, 24 March 2018 (UTC)Reply
I'm just generally opposed to what amounts to boiler plate diplomatic responses from foreign governments. Domestic responses ... fine. --76.122.98.135 (talk) 00:59, 24 March 2018 (UTC)Reply
Trudeau's quote was enormous. Now it's summarized. Nobody needs a verbatim quote when every reader who's ever read one of these knows what they say. InedibleHulk (talk) 07:03, 24 March 2018 (UTC)Reply

Actually, self-identification is fair play.--Kintetsubuffalo (talk) 03:33, 25 March 2018 (UTC)Reply
The defining characteristic of terrorism that differentiates it from other attacks is the motivation (specifically if the action was politically or religiously motivated). If the perpetrator identifies themselves as a terrorist, then it is in fact terrorism by definition. BrendonTheWizard (talk) 06:50, 25 March 2018 (UTC)Reply
Lakdim specifically and by name demanded the release of Salah Abdeslam. That is terrorism, case in point. –Vami_IV✠ 09:38, 25 March 2018 (UTC)Reply
And he also claimed he was acting on behalf of Islamic State, and their unofficial-but-widely-recognized news outlet claimed him as one of their own.Tlhslobus (talk) 10:41, 25 March 2018 (UTC)Reply
