French President Francois Hollande promised early Saturday morning that France would respond to terrorist attacks that killed more than 120 people with a "pitiless" war against the group responsible.
"We are going to lead a war which will be pitiless," he said at the Bataclan, the site of one of the attacks, according to the Guardian.
"Because when terrorists are capable of committing such atrocities, they must be certain that they are facing a determined France, a united France, a France that is together and does not let itself be moved, even if today we express infinite sorrow," Hollande added.
Hollande's remarks came after what appears to be the biggest terrorist attack ever on French soil, and some emerging signs that the Islamic State is responsible.
They also may pose a challenge to the Obama administration, which has faced increasing criticism about whether its plan to "degrade and ultimately destroy" ISIS is working fast enough. Secretary of State John Kerry was in Vienna Friday for more talks about how to handle the Syrian civil war, which has been credited with creating the conditions for the Islamic State to thrive there.
"These are heinous, evil, vile acts," Kerry said in response to the attacks. "Those of us who can must do everything in our power to fight back against what can only be considered an assault on our common humanity."
Can you say Presidente LePen? I knew that you could .
Pitiless = “We will taunt you a second time.”
At some point the left will indeed lead the attack on Islam. Only Nixon can go to China. But not yet.
“The group responsible” is all of Islam. Any truly peaceful, moderate Muslims need to totally renounce that evil ideology and fight the Jihadists or be killed with them.
Islam can no longer be allowed to exist.
K.T.A..
If Holly can make good on his words and lead decisive attacks against murderous muzz scums we will ‘partially’ forgive him of his other leftisms.
Maybe Msr. Hollande will try to nuke Israel. France’s appeasement will be pitiless. /sarc
I seem to recall that prior to the last two elections Obama support in France was over 70%.
I would sure like to see a poll after today.
find out who they were and go after their families
The French will fart in your general direction.
Empty rhetoric. He won’t expel islam.
Send all your Muslims to Turkey.
Snarky isn’t appropriate in times like this, but I gotta say, these people aren’t so much victims of Islamic terrorist.
They are victims of their Idiotic Government.
Just like 9-11, the liberal Marxist will be silent for a period, then give it a month or two and we will be being told to not be racists, it’s was an isolated incident and just shut up about it or you will be the bad guy.
Until they start saying out loud that Mohammedans ARE the problem, it’s all whistling past the graveyard.
Petty much. Eventually Socialists all go Hitler, but right now there is a crisis that cannot be wasted. Once it’s milked to proper ends, they will kill the useful idiots.
History is pretty clear about the pattern.
And President Trump. Just watch.
