Elderly priest, 86, is 'beheaded' by two ISIS knifemen shouting 'Allahu Akbar' after they took nuns and worshippers hostage at French church: Police shoot both attackers dead then search for bombs:
A priest has been 'beheaded' by two ISIS knifemen who cut his throat after bursting into a French church and taking nuns and worshippers hostage before being shot dead by police.
Five people including the 86-year-old priest, two nuns and two parishioners were held by assailants who raided the church in Saint-Etienne-du-Rouvray near Rouen in Normandy during morning mass at 9am.
The clergyman, named as Jacques Hamel, is believed to have been beheaded during the attack while another hostage is fighting for life in hospital.
The two attackers were 'neutralised' by marksmen as they emerged from the building, which is now being searched for explosives. French president Francois Hollande said the men 'claimed to be from' ISIS while the terror group has claimed responsibility through its news agency.
There were reports the attackers shouted 'Allahu Akbar' as they ran outof the church while at least one of the men was dressed in Islamic clothing.
It comes as it emerged that the building was one of a number of Catholic churches on a terrorist 'hit list' found on a suspected ISIS extremist last April.
There are also reports that one of the attackers was a local resident who was under electronic tag surveillance having been jailed in France for trying to travel to Syria in 2015. His bail terms allowed him to be unsupervised between 8.30am and 12.30pm - the attack happened between 9am and 11.am.

What do you expect? When you invite rabid dogs into your country, expect more than a few to get bitten.
Obama is still figuring out the motive...
Yep, just as I thought. Amish lone wolves.
It’s a tough one. Workplace violence might not fly in this case.
Getting to be a daily occurrence. How much longer until the eurowennies push back?
France is screwed. They spent the last 40 years letting every North African into France. And they have zero respect for France. We may have to invade France again.

Mecca kind of gets to be a target soon.
Obama wants these murderers in America, but the
tens of thousands if not millions.
And Ryan and McConnell make it possible every day.
Every single death and infection coming and present
is due to them and their utter negligence and
hatred for the American People (below them).
B. Obama and friends is doing the same thing here by b ringing them here with the blessing of P. Ryan, Kasich, Nikki Haley and other. Incidentally, I saw Ms. Nikki at the GOP convention in one of the crowd shots or somebody who looked like her.
Marion Le Pen: They kill our children, murder our policemen and slaughter our priests. Wake up!. #Normandy
Only one way to deal with a rabid dog.
Or the dihmmicrats.
Big difference. Americans are ARMED.
To bad the cops killed them, now we’ll never know what their motive was.
