The Louvre museum in Paris has been evacuated after what the French Ministry of the Interior has called a “serious public security event” in which a number of soldier opened fire on a man with a machete who cried “Allahu Akbar”.

Soldiers fired five shots to disable a man at the entrance to the Louvre in Paris, France Friday morning after the machete-wielding attacker shouted threats and the well known Islamist phrase “Allahu Akhbar”, rushed the troops while carrying two backpacks, reports Le Figaro.

The man was shot in the stomach and bomb-disposal teams have been deployed to assess the contents of the man’s bags. Police have said no explosives have been found.

The soldiers, who are among the 100,000 deployed to the streets of France to protect schools, places of worship, railway stations, and sites of touristic interest as part of operation Sentinel were patrolling in a group of three men when the attack took place. One soldier sustained light injuries during the attack.

I’m not sure this is terror related. It is definitely Muslim related, however.

ALL Muslims are commanded to overthrow, kill, behead, rape, etc. infidels. The world MUST BE 100% grade A Islam for the child rapist pedophile Mohamed to return.

Look up the verses if you don't believe it.

The plan is to completely flood the west with Muslim "refugees" who are really invaders. Then convert the west to Islam and Sharia Law. Those who don't convert will die. It was an act of terror.

In other words, ALL Muslims are commanded to be terrorists.

Just as deadly for the cholesterol-aware. But a much better way to go!

Even those who love football are getting turned off by the NFL’s anti-American PC crap.

McCain is a traitor. Trump was right to lash out at him during the primaries.

What? Please say you are kidding? What purpose would it be? Lone terrorists are a very real issue.

My son, currently working in Germany, sent a selfie from the Louvre just a couple of weeks ago. He’s planning to come back to the U.S. soon, but will be living in California due to a great job opportunity in his field. He’s certainly living in “interesting” times and “interesting” places.

Makes me glad that I was in Germany during the 80s and not now. The only thing I had to deal with was the occasional car bomb from the Rote Armee Fraktion or some other Soviet-inspired paramilitary group (or accidentally getting in an anti-nuclear demonstration by the Greens -- or getting stabbed by a Turk if I wandered into the wrong part of town).

Nothing compared to the third world hellhole it's become.

Allahu Akhbar translates to “Open Fire” in my book.

If they perpetrator survives.

He’ll be a free agent attracting a tremendous amount of attention from many of Americas sanctuary city mayors.

The bidding for his relocation to one of their cities will be robust.

The winner will welcome him with a key to the city and more than likely a parade.

From the article I posted in my post 91:

“Sources told CBS News the man had an Egyptian passport with the name Abdalla Reda El Rafaie EL Hamahni. A French prosecutor said the attacker was a UAE resident who came to Paris on a tourist visa on Jan. 26.”

Pretty damn boring for someone (like me) who doesn’t give a rat’s butt about football.

You mean you don't care about ungrateful, anti-American "athletes?"

Five shots "to disable" Maybe they were employing euphemism.

Seriously, I've taken a hog or deer that needed more than two shots to not just down it, but kill it. Impacting shots, anyway, lol, I had to fling a few at one deer before I finally hit him for the first time -- and hit him right through the heart (right where I was leading-aim trying to hit him on the move).

I cast my vote for;
More "free range" "in the wild" live fire exercises.
