This is horrible. I hate the way people on this site jeer at the French, and I hope nobody does it now. The French have had more attacks than almost anybody. I hope they really go ballistic on Muslims.
Oddly enough, Spain, which is pretty passive, has been more effective and when I was there last week, they broke up a huge plot to carry out an attack like this. They were even arresting people and shoving them into vans in the quiet residential neighborhood where I stay.
So maybe French intelligence services have got to be better. Or they’re being undermined.
It is horrible.
I have a feeling all our intelligence services will need to get better and quickly. It’s not out of the question that this will be coming to US shores shortly.
