Hollande Vows "All Out War" Against ISIS After Priest Killing
Zerohedge ^ | July 26, 2016 | Tyler Durden

Posted on 07/26/2016 9:54:13 AM PDT by Former Proud Canadian

Shortly after the latest terror attack on French soil by two ISIS "soldiers", President Francois Hollande, who was roundly disparaged 12 days ago for the country's lack of preparedness to the Nice truck terror attack which killed 84, vowed to wage war against the Islamic State "by every means".

"We are confronted with a group, Daesh, which has declared war on us," Hollande said, using an alternative name for Isis. "We have to wage war, by every means, (but through) upholding the law, which is because we are a democracy."

This makes no sense. "Democracy" is just a way leaders are selected and/or decisions are made. It has nothing necessarily to do with how "war" or police activities are conducted. You could conceivably have a democratic dictatorship if a society decided that they like dictators and had a system where an election was held every 4 years to elect a dictator.

“2. Eliminate the electrical grid in the new caliphate.

3. Allow no vehicle traffic day or night, this can be achieved by air, probably not by French air power alone but the combined resources of Russia, France and (horrors the USAF and the USN) could easily accomplish this.”

For a moment I thought you were talking about the muslim quarter in Paris.

Excellent, but Muslim males in EU must be sterilized. There are thousands more TERRORISTS yet to be born in Germany, France, etc.. There is no way to truly stop home-grown Islamists without sterilization.

Also, for any Muslim not killed outright and instead incarcerated THEY MUST BE KEPT SEPARATE FROM THE GENERAL PRISON POPULATION TO PREVENT THE SPREAD OF THE DEATH CULT IDEOLOGY CALLED ISLAM!

It’s about time someone take a stand.

The leaders of the West are missing in action, and there’s a war going on, on their streets.

Sounds just fine. Add Medina and Riyadh to the list while you’re at it.

They might want to do things a little differently in this arena. I don’t think the ankle bracelet worked.

http://www.mirror.co.uk/news/world-news/isis-knifemen-forced-french-priest-8497681

It also earlier emerged that one of the attackers was a convicted terrorist who was meant to be living with his parents with an electronic tag on his ankle.

The 19-year-old, known as Adel K, had been previously caught trying to get into Syria to join ISIS.

He was subject to a curfew which only allowed him to leave his parents’ house in the morning - the time of the church attack.

The astonishing revelation – made by security sources to the French TV news channel I-Tele – has likely caused further outrage in a country devastated by constant security failings.

The terrorists’ identities were already known to the authorities before they carried out this morning’s killing at the church.

One, who lived close to the church, is said to have left for Syria in 2015 to try and join Islamic State, but he was arrested in Turkey.

He was jailed for terrorist offences following a short trial in France, before being released on March 2nd this year.

Bail conditions included returning to live with his parents, wearing an electronic tag, and reporting to his local police station.

According to his bail conditions, the electronically tagged terrorist was allowed out unsupervised between 8.30am and 12.30pm.

Today’s attack took place between 9.45am and 11am.

France is a nuclear power and could nuke any target in the middle east. Just saying.

Incarceration is too much of a PITA. Why bother. France must have some guillotines it can dust off.

“Stonewall Jackson was outraged..... But it was the churches – the churches – that infuriated him most. Houses of God were pocked with bullet holes and charred by cannon shot. This was a crime against God – a despicable blasphemy – and it very nearly made him weep. Dr. McGuire, who was seldom far from Jackson’s side, shook his head in revulsion. “What can we do about this kind of barbaric behavior?”
Jackson’s voice trembled. “Kill ‘em,” he said. “Kill ‘em all.”

I like how you think. I agree with every single point you made, but I lament that our P***yfied culture doesn’t have the stones to do what is necessary.
