French jets carry out their biggest bombing raid in Syria after Islamic State gunmen massacre 132 people in Paris.
French fighter jets have dropped 20 bombs on the Islamic State (IS) stronghold of Raqqa in northern Syria. The planes hit a jihadi recruitment centre, training camp and arms depot run by the extremist group, according to the French defence ministry. A spokesman described it as a "massive" attack and France's biggest to date in Syria. The bombing raid was launched from air bases in United Arab Emirates and Jordan, and involved 10 of France's 12 fighter jets based there. It follows Friday's terror attacks which left 132 people dead in the French capital. IS fighters said they carried out the gun and bomb massacre on busy bars, restaurants and a music venue. Sky's Sam Kiley, in northern Iraq, said the French airstrikes should not be seen as a "wanton act of revenge, but France saying we want to do all the strikes". He said they were not carpet-bombing raids, but precision-guided operations that had been well planned in advance.

Don’t stop there!
So what will they do to the ones living in France?
Anybody on Free Republic still doubt Western Civilization is at war with Islam?
Well, okay, POTUS is refusing to acknowledge the reality, but how about anyone else?
[Sky’s Sam Kiley, in northern Iraq, said the French airstrikes should not be seen as a “wanton act of revenge”]
Huh? What’s wrong with a little payback? Or a lot of payback?
Well - its a pretty meager start... but what about the tens of thousands of likely terrorists they have already allowed to take root in their own land? Until they do something about that...
Exterminating the roaches in the neighbor a few blocks over doesn’t do much to stem the pests in your own home...
> So what will they do to the ones living in France?
Why, let them go, of course.

Wow... it takes nearly 150 ppl killed to finally grow some balls...
If there is no Collateral damage, you are not dropping enough bombs.
Sorry but that is the harsh truth.
“So what will they do to the ones living in France?”
napalm
“He said they were not carpet-bombing raids”
Screw the carpet bombs, lay down a footprint of B61s.
Do better than a drone just NUKE THEM

Offer them the choice of a free ticket to Syria or a free bullet in the brain.
They should drop just one. Break the ice.
If we knew where these places were before why weren't they attacked before? I mean we (French, Americans, Russians, British, etc) were watching ISIS recruit, train and store weapons and we did about it until the French just now attacked them? Weird.
Insane stupidity doesn't come close to describing leftists kooks like Madonna and her protected, elitist class.
I heard on the news that we have 800,000 people on a watch list. Can that possibly be true?
Wake me up when they decide to bomb ISIS Operation Linebacker style.
Anything else is a half measure.
