      But they found 20 gas canisters, which is hardly a sophisticated explosive. If linked, it supports self-starter theory. #Barcelona 14/x

      Who did it and how linked they were to #ISIS will become clearer. But this we know: vehicle attacks are very hard to stop. #Barcelona 15/x

      My analysis of the Westminster vehicle attack (March 2016) applies to the #BarcelonaTerroristAttack as well. https://arcdigital.media/5-thoughts-on-the-westminster-attack-aeb29d4f9d85 … 16/x

      Vehicles will drive near pedestrians in cities. No way around it, and we wouldn't want to stop normal urban activity either. #Barcelona 17/x

      If someone really wants to hit pedestrians on purpose, they will have the opportunity. #BarcelonaTerrorAttack 18/x

      Alert security services can respond quickly, but not before terrorists can do some damage. #BarcelonaTerroristAttack 19/x

      I wish I could end on a more positive note, telling you how tragedies like the #BarcelonaTerrorAttack can be averted. But I can't. 20/x

      The reasons why #terrorist groups and self-starters want to use violence are big, complicated, and not about to go away. #Barcelona 21/x

      And vehicle attacks are an effective tactic that even prepared security services will have trouble stopping. #BarcelonaTerroristAttack 22/x

      As a long-term solution, yes. But there will be human-driven cars in populated areas for many years.
