another munich ?

I wake up to read 'Gunmen attack SL Cricketers' on my homepage.
Seems quite surreal, and weird, now that is happening outside of Sri Lankan, to our cricketers, a bunch of people truly symbolising Sri Lanka. Usually it's always bomb going off, or this or that attack. happning IN Sri Lanka.
Thank goodness none of the players are seriously injured. It seems unlikely they were shooting directly at the players, or atleast I am left wondering how the policemen died whereas the players only got small injuries. Whatever it is, why. why. and
Why ? and as Indi has said, WTF Pakistan?! what happened to heavy security envoys?
