The editorial that I read was about the terrorist attacks in Paris at the Charlie Hebdo offices.  The writer of the article, Scott Creighton is extremely sarcastic so it was kind of hard to understand what his point of view was at first.  It then became clear through his comparisons of this attack and the Boston Bombings that he is very critical of the French police and intelligence for how they handled the attack and their search for the terrorists.  Towards the end of the article Creighton states that the trials for the Boston Bomber Dzhokhar Tsarnaev started a two days before the Charlie Hebdo attack.  I can’t tell, because of his sarcasm if he is suggesting that there is a link between the two attacks or not.  I think that the two attacks were not connected to each other.
