CNN also just announced that there are also 60 hostages being held in a theater.

Update: More than 128 dead. We got a new rating. Basically, everything went fucky.

UK journalist/broadcaster Andrew Neil did a pretty good job of summing things up last night on his show:

I don't know what was more awesome, the video itself, which was a masterpiece of rhetoric or the amusement I got from looking at the comments section on that video.

Wellvof course, Brussels is the location of the EU Parliament. That is the likely target.

Yes, that was my thought too. But the advice is to stay away from large gatherings, so it sounds like similar to Paris. Either way, will be tense times there for a bit.

Eagles of Death Metal, the band who played the Bataclan when the attacks occurred, shared their side of the story with Vice. It's a pretty emotional watch.
