Terrorist attack in Paris, France

Commander Wallace · 11-13-15, 07:48 PM

France once again is having to deal with a cowardly attack on it's citizens. At least 100 people were killed in a Paris concert hall. In addition, there were attacks at a restaurant, soccer stadium and a shopping mall. A state of emergency has been declared. The attacks were coordinated as they happened within minutes of each other.

French president Francois Hollande was in attendance at the Soccer match between France and Germany but was thankfully unharmed

In August of this year, an attack on a train was thwarted by 2 American service men, a Briton and another individual.

There was another attack at publishing house and magazine,Charlie Hebdo Jan 7, 2015 in which 12 were killed

Thoughts and prayers go out to France and it's citizens .

OK, I gotta vent a little....
I tried to follow the attacks / ongoing event as it happened via ARD/ZDF/N24 live streams, those are 3 TV channels here in Germania.

On all of them, all the time... THEY TALKED ABOUT THE FFFF FOOTBALL TEAM BEING IN THE STADIUMS CATACOMBS!

WTF!???

I don't give a RATS BEHIND about some over-payed athletes while over a hundred people die OUTSIDE the stadium, where things are actually happening!

PRIORITIES I guess...

I feel your pain. I was surfing through the local channels and one was showing social media memes.

I hate social media when it comes to this stuff. It's not news.

Just awful. Amazing how much mayhem a few fanatics can cause.

Friday the 13th, a date which has been traded up from superstition to infamy.

eddie · 11-13-15, 09:17 PM

Such a tragic event. I hope the nightmare for them is over.

But, Friday the 13th hasn't been a good day for Daesh either, Kurdish forces, backed by US airstrikes, have retaken Sinjar! And I guarantee we killed more then 150 pieces of Daesh crap in that deal!

Jihad Johnny was also killed today by a hellfire launched by a drone. Or should be said that the DOD feels that it is very likely that JJ is dead.

ISIS is claiming responsibility and saying the next targets are Rome, London, and Washington DC. Authorities caught one of the attackers who said he was ISIS I read.
If this doesn't wake up the world governments to what they are inviting into their countries, United States included, nothing will.

Dmitry Markov · 11-14-15, 01:38 AM

My sincere condolences to everyone who suffered.

eddie · 11-14-15, 02:44 AM

My prayers go out for the families of the innocent Russians killed in the tragic bombing of their aircraft.

BossMark · 11-14-15, 02:58 AM

My prayers to all those involved.

I hope this wakes up our governments and they finally understand that we must bring war to those bastards instead of waiting here for them to bring it to us. The ISIS must be annihilated in the ME, not one by one here after they kill hundreds of us

Oddly, my (the) very last post in the music thread expressed this very sentiment right before the gigantic Spam Bomb robbed us of it last week: "The Russian people, a beautiful people so in love with their country, our hearts go out to you since that awful aerial tragedy".

Now our hearts go out again all too soon, to our dear friends in France.

Stay strong France, you showed more than enough times you're able to survive.

STEED · 11-14-15, 05:24 AM

No confirmed news here who carried it out, the only bit of news was the attack was carried out in the name of Syria.

I see just in....

The near-simultaneous attacks in Paris that killed at least 127 people and wounded more than 180 were an "act of war" carried out by Islamic State, says France's President Francois Hollande.
He said the attacks, carried out by eight gunmen and suicide bombers, were "organised and planned from outside".
Busy bars and restaurants, a music concert and a high-profile football match were all targeted.
Mr Hollande has declared three days of national mourning.
