At 10.30am, three grenades were thrown into the flat. There was no reaction. Raid officers then entered the flat. They went in through the door and through a window.

“Video equipment was deployed to inspect different rooms in the flat. No sign of him was found. But as the equipment inspected the bathroom, Mohammed Merah burst out—apparently armed with several weapons—and fired with extreme ferocity. One Raid officer, who’s taken part in many operations, told me he’d never seen such an intense and violent assault.

“Raid officers returned fire. The snipers opposite attempted to neutralise him. In the end, Mohammed Merah jumped through a window, gun in hand and carried on firing. He was found dead on the ground.”

Indeed: They are trying to turn him into a hero. Unbelievable!

So he’s dead now. Tell me then, what was the point of this 30 hour siege? Why didn’t they just go in there and shoot him in the head?

Yep...he's a regular Muslim Butch Cassidy. Disgusting. A French cop should have tossed bacon strips over his body and set him on fire.

safety of the gendarmes involved?

they didn’t know if he had a bomb rigged to detonate
on entry.

they knew he wasn’t going anywhere, so they just wait him
out.
