Multiple Attacks Roil Paris; President Hollande Is Evacuated From Stadium
New York Times ^ | November 13, 2015 | ADAM NOSSITER and RICK GLADSTONE

Posted on 11/13/2015 2:50:24 PM PST by reaganaut1

PARIS - Shootings and explosions erupted in the Paris area on Friday night, and French news services said at least 39 people were dead, dozens wounded and others taken hostage in what appeared to be coordinated militant attacks.

French television reported that one of at least two explosions had struck near Paris at the country's main sports stadium, forcing the hasty evacuation of President François Hollande. The explosion occurred during a France-Germany soccer match.

The shooting broke out at a popular concert hall, The Bataclan, where a death metal band was playing, and the France 24 website said dozens of hostages had been taken there.

A witness quoted by BFM television said he heard rounds of automatic rifle fire and someone shouting "Allahu akbar!" at The Bataclan.

The police were ordering bystanders in the that area to get off the streets, French television reported.

Other news services and French television quoted the Paris police as saying 39 people had been killed in the 10th and 11th Arrondissements of Paris.

* Has the French government surrendered yet? *

Not yet, but they’re crouched and ready to spring into action with the white flags...

I wonder if we can send a crack team from the Missouri and Yale universities to demand a safe place to air their grievances and chase the hostage takers away?

OK, we’ve had many threads on this attack since it first occurred, anybody knows the ethnicity or religion of the perpetrator(s)?

I ask for obvious reasons.

Kick out all Muslims from Western nations, no humanitarian aid, no nothing. Let them stew in their own feces.

That just shows you that you should never go to a death metal concert. You’re just asking for it.

If you send some university presidents, they will surrender faster than the French and we can all have this wrapped up by the weekend.

we kinda owe them historically in some respects

****************************************************************

In what respect? If you’re talking about French help in the American Revolutionary War, we repaid them and then some in W.W.2.

It’s time to send every last one of these murdering rat bastards back to the Hell they came from.

No more Islam in America. None. Get out.

No Syrians. None.

Any here need to go.

These creatures have no business among us.

They just reported more explosions around the concert hall. I bet they’re going to kill all of them.

Hmmm, this might be difficult.
1) They are killing civilians.
2.) There have been bombs and suicide bombers,
3) Calls of "This is for Syria" & "Allahu Akbar" (or maybe "I want red wine!")
4) It is Friday after the local mosques have completed services.

Gee, can anybody guess? I don't think that the White House has a clue! Workplace violence?

I’m horrified for the victims. But that said, overreach by these islamic bastards is what is needed to start all out war. Now even the French will be forced to act.
