PARIS—When the sound of a suicide bomber detonating an explosive vest rang out across the Stade de France, President François Hollande was in the stadium watching France’s national soccer team take on Germany.
Within minutes, the French leader was given alarming news.

Yup, Bush was reading Goat story. Obama plays Golf. Clinton enjoying under desk with cigar.
Thanks for posting that informative article and thanks to the WSJ for not putting it behind the paywall.
And President Bush continued reading a book to school children. So, in five years will Mr. Hollande be ridiculed for what he did, the same as Bush?
Just because someone is ridiculed doesn’t mean it is deserved.
Very informative - thanks.
Hollande didn’t sit continuing to watch the soccer game. As soon as he got the news he started working with his colleagues to address the situation.
“What sharp, smart decision-making. Too bad we don’t have a president like Hollande.”
The sudden realization that the Islamists were targeting YOU for death, personally, can be a life-changing, and attitude changing experience.
Eff the muslims of the world. Eff them to death.
islam is satan worship.
Islam must be destroyed.
A rare thing, a smart, decisive (in a positive way) socialist. As a resident of North America, that is refreshing.
You (Amerika) have an indecisive ‘leader’ and we (Kanada) have one who is decisive in a destructive way (at least destructive to our economy).
Close to three hours before SWAT entered the concert hall. Just saying ...
I wouldn’t go so far as to say that. He is a big time socialist.
I didn’t know a thing about Holland’s before this, but I have been nothing but impressed.
One thing is certain: some internet armchair quarterback will think of a better response.
W was reading to a kindergarten class when he was informed of the bombings. He directed his staff to bring his limo up and concluded his reading while this was done. He was concerned about alarming the kids by an abrupt departure.
Also recall that he promised he would act “at a time of our choosing.” He saw to our dead while carefully preparing our invasion.
I still thank God he, and not Algore, was our commander in chief.
Don’t mention W in the same breath with Obama, Clinton, or this socialist wrecker. Hollande is good for one or two blasts; then, satisfied, he’ll return to gutting the French economy.
If you’d like to be on or off, please FR mail me.

Can’t trust Canada any longer, not with their shiny new ‘braintrust’. They’ve coddled sharia for a while, now watch it progress.
And NAFTA is just a joke, with USA the biggest loser.
