Hollande, the French President, is calling for 10,000 military on the streets and all who have served in the Gendarmerie or the Armed Services to assist in an all out effort to protect the borders and penetrate the cells of Islamists in France.

Thanks. This sounds like a plan.

I just remember after the massacre in Paris Hollande announced that France would not be deterred from bringing in even more "Syrian refugees". And then he went ahead, while the debris in the streets was still smoking and the bodies weren't cold, with their stupid Global Warming conference. And of course Obama flew to Paris to talk about Global Warming while they hadn't yet even cleaned up the blood in the streets.

So I know our guy doesn't get it because he's complicit. I'd like to think Hollande might be willing to actually protect his country. We'll see.

I liked Sarko. He had started dealing with the problem effectively. Unfortunately, Hollande was elected, but he is dead meat now. has the lowest popularity rating imaginable...somewhere in the teens. Nevertheless,the French people are fed up. Calling on all the retired former servicemen and gendarmes to back up the current effectives will massively enlarge the eyes and ears on the ground. Remember, in France, the gendarmerie is part of the armed services. I’ll be in France in a few days. Not worried a bit.
