Sky News ^ | Jan. 9, 2015 | Sky News

Posted on 01/09/2015 12:57:43 AM PST by radu

The two men suspected of attacking a newspaper in Paris have stolen a car and reportedly have several hostages.

A car chase is under way on the N2 motorway, and police sources say shots have been fired.

The car is now on the outskirts of Paris - close to Charles de Gaulle airport - and several helicopters are reportedly hovering overhead.

Sky's Ian Woods says the police focus now appears to have turned to an industrial building near to the airport.

Two people with gunshot wounds have been taken to hospital in Meaux.

Sky news is showing pictures of CRS dudes with their Mini-14s. Normally the CRSs are very shy and don’t like to have their pictures taken. :-)

I am watching the BBC live stream right now before work.

And are we going to have to start placing armed guards at every single Synagogue, Jewish Market and Jewish house and person in France?

In America we guard ourselves.

I will NOT be sold like a sheep to the slaughter.

Don’t identify as a guard, but yes, be armed. Thank God for the second amendment to the United States Constitution and the right to bear arms in the Kansas Constitution.

Remember the bass turds said the Warsaw Uprising was a Jewish “overreaction” to the murderous evil Nazis. Fight. Fight them at every turn. The Jewish people and the Christians have a special relationship with God.

Any Islamic apologist that wants to say we are siblings with the Islamics, all children of Abraham and other such lies is a liar whose ancestor is the father of lies who was evicted from Heaven Michael the ArchAngel.

Guardian:

A witness to the second siege has told French media what he saw at the kosher supermarket siege.

“There was an individual - African - who had a Kalashnikov ... and he immediately went into the deli and he started shooting with his Kalashnikov,” said the man, who gave his name as Fabian.

“The latest news is that sadly apparently there are two dead. What is for sure is that colleagues that are there already saw six hostages that were controlled by this individual.”

YES!

Perfect analogy dearest yldstrk!

That was my first thought too, I would fight to survive as if the was the Warsaw uprising in the Second World War.

You have nothing to fight with and yet keep fighting!

I guess the Jews in Europe are going to have to secretly arm themselves no matter what the law and protect themselves. They can’t be sheep lead to the slaughter yet again.

I’m glad you live in America where you CAN protect yourself. And you do a darn good job of it, as I recall. :)

A police official says the man who has taken at least five people hostage in a kosher market in Paris appears is linked the Charlie Hebdo suspects, AP reports.

The official, who was not authorized to speak about the situation, said the man opened fire in the market Friday and declared “you know who I am.”

Paris police released a photo of Amedy Coulibaly as a suspect in the killing of a policewoman on Thursday. The official named him as the man holed up in the market.

AP’s source said some hostages have been gravely wounded. Earlier AFP said two people had been killed. Reuters said one person was seriously injured and six hostages have been taken.

Oh NO! The New York Times will need to rush out ANOTHER article warning everyone about the backlash against Muslims that follows these shootings!!!

I'm very upset for the New York Times, because now they will need to rush out articles warning everyone not to 'backlash' against muslims, and articles about the plights and struggles that drove the terrorists to rightfully act out.

What a horrible burden, NYT, but stay strong. Pure evil needs defending fans and sycophants, too!
