Franceโ€™s state-owned rail company SNCF says a 'massive attack' aimed at paralysing the high-speed network is causing delays and cancellations.

A series of coordinated arson attacks on the train infrastructure of France's largest rail company, SNCF, caused a significant number of trains to be re-routed or cancelled on Friday morning, according to the transport company....

The attack is expected to disrupt the transport system on the opening day of the 2024 Paris Olympics....

International travel to and from the UK beneath the English Channel and to neighbouring Belgium has also been disrupted by what SNCF called a series of coordinated overnight incidents.

You have to wonder if this is an isolated attack or a first stage of follow-on attacks later today or in the coming days.

1972 Israelis held hostage and murdered.
1996 Bombing, two dead, over a hundred injured.
2024. Hopefully, no deaths this Olympics...

Of course, expect more arsonists.

Wildfires are next, just as we will see in the U.S.

I would bet that Islamic terrorists are the likely perps. Recently an Australian girl was gang raped by five Muslim males. French women have reported that they are afraid to go out because of the Muslim jackals. Is this the start of a Muslim insurrection?

The interesting question is - whodunnit?
My list in order of likelihood-

- Muslims. Just to be a**h**** as usual.
- Russia, for obvious reasons. Maybe in cahoots with the above.
- Leftists disappointed they didn’t take over the government, yet.
- Le Pens disgruntled people.

I’ve actually been surprised that terrorist out west especially around LA and Southern California have not tried to overwhelm local resources by setting fires all over the place.

A few Molotov Cocktails and a car is all you need to drive around remote areas setting a huge number of fires during the dry season that could not be contained in any reasonable manner.

Where are the Mighty Morphin’ Power Rangers when you need them? Sanctioned by the EU for their Israeli writers? Don’t know why I mention fictional heroes. Perhaps because real heroes are hard to find?
