Posted on 07/26/2016 3:37:57 AM PDT by Zakeet

A priest who was taken hostage by two armed men with knives at a church in northern France has been killed, a police source says.

It appeared the priest's throat was slit, the source told the Reuters news agency.

Two men, both armed with knives, took five hostages in Saint-Etienne-du-Rouvray in Rouen.

Note: Details are still sketchy, but it appears that the four other hostages who witnessed the priest's murder were nuns.

What does it take for European leaders to realize their mistake? Everyone of them should either swing from a rope, or be guillotined. Sooner rather than later.

Just saw this story on the Daily Mail UK http://www.dailymail.co.uk/news/article-3708394/Two-men-armed-knives-people-hostage-French-church.html

The details are missing, but again, muslim terrorists.

It sounds like the Priest was killed during Mass.

Pope Francis’s legacy in the making. This is where appeasement gets you with Islam - brutally slain and very dead.

Now, now. We mustn't jump to conclusions.

The knee-jerk reaction is to assume this attack was carried by some troubled lone wolf orphan with cultural differences who is acting out his frustration by going about randomly harming innocent folk for no discernible reason.

But that doesn't mean he represents all troubled lone wolf orphans with cultural differences who act out their frustration by going about randomly harming innocent folk for no discernible reason.

This has become a daily event now in Europe. Trump needs to begin every campaign speech with a litany of the last 7 jihadist attacks, which at this point shouldn’t take us back in time more than about a week.

I don’t think most people realize just how bad this has gotten in Europe and the same thing will happen here if we don’t take action now.

"Islamist madness come to Europe and it’s governments do. NOTHING."

In the 1930s and 40s, Nazism madness came to Europe. It took a massive effort, including the firebombing of major cities in Europe, to destroy Nazism.

It took another massive effort, including massive firebombing and two atomic bombs, to destroy the madness of Japanese imperialism.

It will take a lot more to destroy the madness of Islamic terrorism, and there will not likely be a Marshall Plan to rebuilt those parts of the planet that had to be destroyed.

This is like the 6th Muslim attack in Europe in two weeks. It’s a war, and many people don’t even realize it.

Our Western leaders live in mansioned compounds surrounded by security walls, fences and heavily armed guards. So where do you think the money for all that comes from. In their minds they’ve not made a mistake for they truly believe that they will be killed last.

In the 1930s and 40s, Nazism madness came to Europe.

Coincidentally enough, the rise of Nazism happened with the support of North African mooselims.

Holy Martyrs of the Church, pray for us.

In the name of the Father, and of the Son, and of the Holy Ghost, amen.
