Turkey Warned French Twice About Attacker, Official Says

The Turkish authorities warned their French counterparts twice in the past year about one of the attackers, Ismaël Omar Mostefaï, a 29-year-old French citizen who was known by the authorities as someone who had radical Islamist beliefs, an official said on Monday.

The official, speaking on the condition of anonymity, in line with government protocol, said the government never heard back from France and only received an “information request” about Mr. Mostefaï after the Paris attacks.

We have the warnings now about Syrian refugees entering the USA - I am not seeing any results from that either on our end. Also, the Russians warned us about those Chechens in Boston - Obama’s people did nothing.

Russia warned the Obongobongo Administration about the Tsarnaev brothers and those warnings were ignored as well.

What difference, at this point, does it make? /sarc

To any lurking commie leftists - What are radical Islamic beliefs?

How do go about destroying/removing only the radicals?

Sudden jihad syndrome is impossible to detect until it is to late, that is why all of them must be destroyed/removed.

Bill Maher, who a leftist comedian - wonders about leftists as well - he attacks his fellow leftists on Islamism and why the left seems so passive and PC about this subject.

Nonsense. Socialists love terrorists because they justify a massive and invasive police state with which they can control everybody. Terrorists are a way to power.

The politically correct regimes tend to ignore these warnings. Another one is Great Britain.

Ever since 911, the big pitch has been "the government should protect us." Excuuuuuse me, but WE THE PEOPLE are the government in this country. The Second Amendment says that THE PEOPLE serving in a "well regulated militia" (literally meaning that they get regular practice) are "NECESSARY to the security of a free state." Well? If it's truly "necessary," I sure don't see ANY of it, but I do see gobs of police that are making me wonder about the "free" part. So no wonder we feel insecure.

The ONLY way to control terrorism is if THE PEOPLE are the police, educated in the law, armed for and trained in its execution, and compensated for disproportionate effort and risk. There is no way we will ever have enough police to accomplish rid this country of both terrorists and the 1-out-of-15 residents that happen to be illegal.

Even FR knew days ahead of the attacks that there were warnings.

They have issued new warnings to the US and all this administration is doing is releasing 5 more terrorists from GITMO.

“To any lurking commie leftists - What are radical Islamic beliefs?”

I suggest catching up on Blair’s Law:
http://www.urbandictionary.com/define.php?term=Blair%27s+Law

A primary requisite for leftists to be leftist is an absolute inability to think any deeper than their own bellies or any further than the reach of their own gonads. The inability to relate cause to effect over time is also required.

An actual leftist is completely incapable of recognizing jihadiscumism as anything other than a bugaboo made up by “wingnuts” because that’s what his thought bosses tell him to think.
