HMMMMMMMMMM Diversity is the key to economic and political evolution.
I realise it's not always easy to know if someone is dead or alive, especially if they're running around killing people, and they're Muslim too.
But it's a bit odd to be getting news reports of fatal shootage yesterday, and then being told the shooter is alive and well today - especially when the perp was 'shot multiple times' in an army camp, surrounded by professionals with weapons.
As for inaccurate reported, well, that's a real shock, isn't it?
It was, by all accounts, the army reporting that was incorrect.
