The police and other security forces certainly did a very good job. Tip of the hat.

For their side, these affirmed their faith and
submission, were very successful in drawing
infidel blood, and avenging Mohammed.
Unfortunely, that's True...
Really what's needed, Is "an forced march"
for them, back to the Middle East/North Africa.
"If they die, let 'em die"
..They'd do the same to US.

The Sky reporter was rambling on about how ‘terrorists in future attacks will have to be mindful of that sort of thing’ (my paraphrase).

Grrrrrr

I watched this live on Fox and CNN. It was a very quick assault at both locations.

They were also able to watch it sounds like, the Market situation on CCTV; so they decided to act watching the movements.

I feel bad for their hostages and those in the supermarket as they are dealing with delusional maniacs typical Islamists.

Now the report is that 4 of the hostages at the market were killed. Initial reports are confusing and contradictory.
