If that Marine stays in a French hospital all his needs will be taken care of. 0bama on the other hand wants him returned to the US where he can be either charged or denied care. (IMHO -sarcasm)

Confused. None of them are wounded. These are not the guys from today are they?

It’s interesting that there is no known motive according to investigators. I am sure they are working as hard as they can to discover one. Certainly, I am at a total loss, I say a total loss, as to whatever could have made this young Moroccan attempt such a foolhardy endeavor. Total loss.

Michael Yon posted that picture on his facebook page just now, reporting is still fluid, apparently.

God Bless also the British man who helped the Marines stop another psycho who was trying to massacre people.

Could be, I guess, given the neck wound. But that’s not any Marine haircut with which I am familiar.

“Once a Marine, always a Marine.”

True enough, Pelham. Haircuts change, but “the walk” never does! If there was a video of this guy walking, we would know for sure.

That's what I expect from rear echelon types. ;-)

Your lifelong civilian hero and draft dodger started it. Don’t tell a prior service soldier to shut up about it. I’m proud of the Marines for stopping the terrorist.

In 2007, this was satire.

Let's leave the detective work to the detectives, OK?

So in another story I read, the Americans heard an AK47 being loaded in the bathroom, and jumped him when he came out. May have been some disgusting ‘racial profiling’ (/sarcasm) going on as well. (I call it Situational Awareness)

even better. the story says they tracked him after observing him at the station. then boarded the train.

No, you just stuck him in because you have Trump on the brainitis.
