PARIS, France The city of Paris stood for a minute's silence earlier today in memory of those killed in Friday's terrorist attack. The army were on the streets securing key sites as police confirmed they had arrested a total of 23 people, with more expected.
Overnight, police raided 168 locations, using special powers granted as part of the state of emergency that is still in force. A total of 104 people are now also under house arrest, as authorities admitted at least one key suspect is on the loose.
The arrest warrant for 26-year-old Salah Abdeslam, brother of one of the bombers was issued over the weekend. He is described as "extremely dangerous" and authorities have warned the public not to approach him. Police also admitted they had Mr Abdeslam in their grasp on Saturday when they stopped a car he had rented.
They let the car go close to the Belgian border, despite its connection with Abdeslam having already been established by security services. It had been used to carry a group of hostage takers to the Bataclan theater, were the majority of the victims of the attack died. There were three men on board when it was stopped.
The attack was the worst on French soil since WWII, and would have been worse still had security not prevented at least one suicide bomber from getting into the international soccer match between France and Germany
Overnight the French airforce launched its largest attack yet against the Islamic State's capital, Raqqa. The French Prime Minister, Manuel Valls, described the country as being "at war". Authorities said Sunday night's airstrikes destroyed a jihadi training camp and a munitions dump, Iraqi intelligence officials claimed the Paris attacks had been planned for them locations hit.
The actions of the French state did little to allay fears amongst the general public. Almost all bars, restaurants and shops were closed in Paris yesterday. A few people braved the City but expressed their concerns about the risk posed by immigrants from countries like Syria.
Antony, a Parisian marketing manager, said he planned to move to either London or New York as soon as he could make the arrangements. "Paris is just not safe anymore, the country has been ruined by people who should never have been allowed to come here in the first place," he told Townhall.com. He continued: "The worst thing now would be if other countries like America followed our lead."
The British Foreign Office warned its citizens not to travel around Paris unless it was absolutely necessary. A petition on the government's own website demanding the closure of the British borders to refugees from the Muslim world has now been signed by 400,000 people.
The petition reads: "In February 2015 Dr Shea, Nato's Deputy Assistant Secretary General for Emerging Security Challenges, warned there would be IS jihadists on the refugee boats. IS also threatened to flood Europe with 500,000 jihadists.
Allowing uncontrolled immigration and taking in these refugees potentially endangers the entire UK population. At any other time in our history this would be tantamount to a declaration of war and borders would be closed."
So far both the UK and France are being required to take a quota of refugees, based on rules drawn up by the European Union.
France should bring back the guillotine.
Questions...
1. What are they being arrested for?
2. If you have PC to arrest them now, did you have it before last Friday?
3. If you did have it before last Friday, why didn’t you arrest them at that time?
4. Is the only reason you’re doing it, is to show the people of France and the world that you mean business this time?
5. Given the fact that there have been at least 9 incidents involving muslim terrorists in your country in 2015, are you prepared for mass deportation and expulsions of the savages that have come to your country to destroy it?
6. Do you really think dropping 20 bombs on a location in Syria, is really going to do anything about the thousands that are already in your country waiting to cause you more harm?
7. Is France ready to show the world how to handle these savages(even though Israel does it daily, but they are routinely condemned for it even though they do it right) once and for all by eradicating all symbols of islam from your country?
This SOB was late!
You know it was on purpose.
Obama arrives late for moment of silence honoring Paris...

“France should bring back the guillotine.”
Nope, they should hack of the heads of the guilty with a rusty knife as they have done to others.
The only silence should be while reloading.
Correction: "The BEST thing now would be if other countries like America followed our lead."
Antony, a Parisian marketing manager, said he planned to move to either London or New York as soon as he could make the arrangements. "Paris is just not safe anymore, the country has been ruined by people who should never have been allowed to come here in the first place," he told Townhall.com. He continued: "The worst thing now would be if other countries like America followed our lead."
Israel has not "eradicated all symbols of Islam from its country," has not attempted to do so, and has no plans to do so. About 16% of Israel's population is muslim, and Israel is strongly committed to protecting their institutions.
They sure found them awfully fast...
Also, France doesn’t have he same “probable cause” standards. They have invoked emergency powers which cancels for 3 months many (French) Constitutional Limitations.
A reciprocating saw would work quite well for this purpose. I’d even supply them with my spent blades dipped in pig lard.
>> “The BEST thing now would be if other countries like America followed our lead.”
You mean like to follow their lead by continuing to fund Syrian “rebels” who manufacture a crISIS that conveniently needs cleaning up by the New World State-establishment?
That sort of “lead”?
Parlez Vooze Ooopze!
There. Fixed that.
Oops, looks like I just did a reading comprehension fail. I read that as that he meant France’s current action of locking down the country was the worst thing America to do.
Sorry fellas, I read that wrong, my mistake.
Hey...no problem. I had to read it twice myself just to be sure. Not the best written article.
Guillotine! guillotine! guillotine for all who even support IS and their goals! France should do the following:
1. Declare war in IS and invoke article 5.
2. Wire all Mosques for sound and if they preach or talk anti-french message—the mosque should demolish and Imans deported.
3. Drop nukes on IS
4. Round up all Islamic people as enemies of the Republic unless they can prove themselves patriots.
5. Put a reward out on Al Baghdadi’s head of 10 million Euros.
6. Plan a big event with all the leaders of the Free World—to stand together—anyone ho doesn’t come should be drummed out of NATO.
7. Target all Oil Production in IS.
8. Set up Cyberwar center to target all IS Social and electronic media.
9. Re-open Devil’s Island for IS Terrorists—and let them rot their in the jungle.
10. Make Islamic “No Go” zones—True Ghettos—wall them up!
11. Send the whole French Fleet to Syria to back up the Russians—and all who want to destroy IS.
12. Special meeting with Putin to plan attacks and make IS pay for what they did.
Arrests? Why pray tell you do not shoot on site?
REQUIRED??
WTF?
Personally, I think both Belgium and Luxenbourg should be nuked!
