Fron Bessies link a few back-- never heard this-- one of the terrorists at concert was female

same post At around 10.15pm a third blast took place near the Stade de France, this time by a McDonald's restaurant on the fringes of the stadium. The boom caused terror among spectators who had already been attempting to flee the stadium following the first two explosions. The attacker who detonated his suicide vest was identified as a 20-year-old French man living in Belgium.

Many great quotes, chose this one from the Blaze article..

"If you trade your freedom for security, the terrorists win. We’ve walked a strange and harrowing road since September 11, 2001, littered with the debris of our once-vaunted liberties. We have gone from a nation that took great pride in being a model of a representative democracy to being a model of how to persuade a freedom-loving people to march in lockstep with a police state. And in so doing, we have proven Osama Bin Laden right. He warned that “freedom and human rights in America are doomed. The U.S. government will lead the American people in — and the West in general — into an unbearable hell and a choking life.”

dotr, Thank you so much. I've been slow to catch up, sorry for the delay. Very kind of you to do.

I just heard about this.

BREAKING: 200 POLICE UNIFORMS FOUND IN THE SOUTH OF FRANCE IN A RAID, ALONG WITH ROCKET LAUNCHERS AND RIFLES, according to @DeirdreBolton

I'm having some trouble verifying the topic. Looks to me as if someone made a quote from 2 other twitter post and added an S on rocket launchers. Can anyone else verify?

Police have seized a rocket launcher and other weapons as they carried out a series of raids across France, said the country's interior minister Bernard Cazeneuve.


The interior ministry said 168 searches had taken place across the country in the wake of the Paris terror attacks.

Searches in Lille, Strasbourg, Lyon, Grenoble, Marseille and Toulouse resulted in the rocket launcher, flak jackets, 15 hand guns and eight other "weapons of war" being seized, according to Le Figaro.


Mr Cazaneuve said that a total of 31 weapons had been seized so far, with 104 suspected jihadists under house arrest and 23 people taken into custody overnight.

Among the items recovered in raids in the Rhone region were police armbands, police clothing and several weapons.

It's lucky that those gunmen never got into the stadium.

I will just say that anyone minizing the threat, the anxiety or the fear of the situation. Saying we should go on about our lives and not let these attacks change who we are and how we think....has never been under a direct threat of terrorism.

Their children have never been under lockdown in kindergarten.

It is a game changer. I assure you.

In the UK we lived with the IRA threat daily. Most bombings tho. There was a coded message recieved prior. But even so many many lives were lost in the years of the IRA terrorism.
I remember watching TV with my mom and dad. When the Blues & Royals were attacked with huge pipe bombs. I must of been old enough then to understand that there will always be hate in this world. Hate enough to want to murder innocents in their 100's.
Then I got married to a Squaddie. And lived in Germany for a number of years. All cars were searched on entry to the camp. We lived off base so we mingled more with the townsfolk. But the lads had seen action in N.I. and the Falklands. It does change you. To a degree. .but this ISIS in not a religion. It's blasphemous when it put in a religious context.
It's just a case of 'them' and 'us' . And now our borders have been so relaxed in Europe for the last 20 years.... they've moved in amongst us. Un noticed. Waiting..... watching.

Looking forward to learning who police are engaged in gunfire with. Hope it's one of the devil's rejects.

Which video? There's nothing in that video shown, unless it's in the writing at the end :dunno:

Pyne and Brandis are on TV saying we are at war with IS. That kind of rhetoric that will only antagonise unhinged IS followers here, imo.

Yeah, what video? Sorry .. I just copy pasted the article without noticing that.

ETA: Video plays in article posted, it looks edited though, so maybe they didn't play that bit or something .. :dunno:

I don't find that violent imagery at all. All they are doing is walking and taking off blindfolds, which to me is symbolic of a truth or not denying something. So I searched for a translation. As it turns out they are Palistinians living in Jordan.
