    Beirut was in fact attacked by ISIS earlier this week. Two suicide bombers killed 43 and injured 200.

    Then radical French muzzies should be rounded up and deported.

    The same for radical muzzie and their sympathizers in America.

    It's time to bring back a version of the Japanese detention camps. The time has come.

    What Soviet fleet?

    By the way, it seems that the police storming action was way too late or ineffectual as with 118 dead inside, it seems the police saved very few people

    Until such a time as when you can show me American soldiers posting pictures of beheaded Arab militants, yes, they are.

    I'm seriously at the point where we need to hold a joint session of congress and possibly the UN and tell Europe and our Allies in the Middle East to either get on board or get out of the way. This the second major attack in Paris and it's only going to get worse. I'm sure the Israelites would be more than happy to help. Wether we like it or not, WW3 is upon us and it's time to take out these cockroaches and eliminate them from the planet. I don't even care much for the French, but enough is enough.

    That is true - I was Air Force and Army during my time. Bombs are great for mass concentrations of equipment that can only be killed by bombs - tanks, vehicles, large troop concentrations, factories, etc. When your enemy is low-profile and highly mobile and blending in with the populace, you have to use eyeball-to-eyeball contact. You have to fight their fight if that makes any sense.

    The French police are saying that there are 118 dead in the theatre, with 40 more in other attacks around the city.

    I agree but even in the U.S. Congress you'll have many saying "that sounds too much like President Bush's 'you're either with us or against us'" and blathering about "What is our exit strategy".

    Oh Jesus Christ.

    You're talking about France. You're talking about a civilized nation. ALL civilized nations need to stand up together against this barbary.

    That includes Russia. It includes every single European country.

    Yeah, all nations need to step up, but if they don't, then they need to step to the side and let us handle it.

    I agree too, but 9/11 should have been a wake up call. Iraq was a mistake, but something must be done.

    Putin will have a good "I told you so" moment out of this. Of course my theory, given that he didn't start flying anti-ISIS missions until after Merkel through open Europe's doors, was that he wanted to drive all the crazy Sunni jihadists into Western Europe where they would cause enormous problems forever.

    No. I have to go by the numbers here. The chance is infinitely small.

    If your erection lasts much longer, you might want to call a doctor.

    Anderson Cooper on CNN is interviewing the brother of the drummer for Eagles of Death Metal. :unsure:

    Edited to add a bullet point on their feed.

    • A journalist who was at a concert at the Bataclan concert venue and escaped after the shooting started told CNN: "We lied down on the floor not to get hurt. It was a huge panic. The terrorists shot at us for 10 to 15 minutes. It was a bloodbath." Julien Pearce didn't hear the attackers speak, but he said one friend who escaped heard them talk about Iraq and Syria. Later, he said the men were speaking French.

    So they were probably from France, possibly returned from Syria.

    Report the absolute minimum casualty count. Say "We Don't Know Who Did It".

    Reaction from French President Hollande:

    "We are going to lead a war which will be pitiless. Because when terrorists are capable of comitting such atrocities, they must be certain that they are facing a determined France, a united France, a France that is together, and does not let itself be moved, even if today we express infinite sorrow."

    Still a chance it was soccer hooligans? Although I can't imagine anything worse than ISIS FIFA militants.
