Do we really need a separate thread for this breathless announcement? It doesn't tell us anything. Why not combine all the ISIS related threads the way Gaza was combined.
Let me answer those questions with some questions of my own at first.
Why is this news story currently rated as #1 on the front page?
Why is it always the left wing that objects to people hearing stories they would prefer the larger audience did not hear?
Why do we assume that because these rabble.ca types whine the loudest, that they represent the majority here? They don't.
Now as to why I posted it as a current news story rather than attach it to the current thread which is hidden in the members only section and deals specifically with the attacks in Iraq I say this...
Some subjects are global in scope, or have a specifically Canadian edge to them. In general they can separate themselves as being important enough to stand out as current news to the wider audience that might visit CKA.
Now me, what I do, and will continue to do until I'm told not to by somebody that matters, is I'll post such stories on the front page if I believe they will have a particular interest to a wider audience outside of the focus of the hidden members only thread for the reasons listed above.
Now you don't like it that too many people will hear news you don't want them to hear about, but that's your problem.
