Better than the spineless lefty Hollande and his taxpayer funded €117,000 pa hairdresser has.

The entire country is being put on a state of alert as they believe there might be a further attack... Mother of god, not again.

Oops. Anyway, it matters not what BJ has to say on the matter.

Nearly time for roundups and mass deportations I think.

Will the spineless Obama finally call acts like this as those of 'radical Islam'?

Let's see.

Hmmm I thought she said '' we did shopping. but that does not ever matter now'' something like that.
She was clearly saying trivial things like shopping not important now.

Are you being obtuse on purpose? You have to know better. It's France, where are they going to get a few hundred kilos of explosives without getting caught? A truck is perfect, it's just a truck, how are they going to track everyone who has access to a truck?

Why the aggro?

There's no need for (military/civvy demolition) explosives, kitchen-grade base chems/preps in large enough quantities would do the job.

Add in the fact that ISIS themselves have acknowleged that what they're "lacking most" in Europe is expert bombmakers, and that they are busy trying to smuggle them in...

Is there some significance, as you perceive it, as to why he does not or has not before?

He regularly refers to ISIL/Daesh, why the semantics?

You can't deport French nationals.

Could people stop posting every rumour they read on Twitter. It's difficult enough having to wade through the usual bigoted and xenophobic comments, without having to read all that unsubstantiated sh**e as well.

questionmark?

Yeah, they should be everywhere all the time to stop everything. They should've known some random concert venue and restaurant would be attacked in Paris and the 6th largest city would be targeted by a truck. Terrible job they're doing.

Come on the ****, blaming completely the wrong people here.

I wasn't blaming them for the attack that's solely the result of nutjub Islamists. I was responding to the post saying the police should be commended. Each of the previous attackers were known to the police so no I won't commend them as they need to up their game. Bet the current attackers were known as well.

These incidents will stop or lessen when the causes of them are addressed, Bush and Blair have a lot to do with this.

Funnily enough, Patrick Calvar (France's Director General of INternal Security) said this yesterday: "We are on the brink of civil war."

ANyway, the end of left/liberal Europe is coming around now so hopefully less dead, and less terror.

Can you use this excuse for plainly psychotic behaviour? Aren't these people just demented at the end of the day? There is no excuse for carnage like that.

Probably dead from a lot of nationalities, maybe some Irish we don't know.
I was watching the Tour de France a couple of days ago and some beautiful scenery, they said France is the number one tourist destination in the world.
So one can imagine people from many countries out on the promenade, happy and enjoying themselves and then here we are in a most unimaginable situation.
When I was younger we had the cold war, but what is going on these days is far more sinister.

Yes that was silly today with Froome running to the finish line after hitting a camera. Saw it on the news early. They should clear the area of photographers and meddling spectators and let those cyclists ride on.

Did internment stop the IRA? No, it recruited loads of people to their cause who wouldn't otherwise have joined them. The same would happen in France.

Surveillance techniques and technology has moved on so far since the 80s. If someone is on a terrorist watchlist now, I'd be more than confident that they're not innocent.

Just when I thought how great it was that the Euros in France had gone off without a hitch, Now this **** happens. If this is Terrorism, They waited until the french had their guard down, then they attacked.

No need to have a go at Islam after this.

The people who do this use Islam as the excuse for their actions but this is not what Islam is about.

No different to 20 years ago how Irish Catholic Republicans were bombing children in England in the name of religion/nationalism.

You must be delighted with this? Just think if it's over 100 people dead you can really ram it home.

RobertKK

It is a scary time for Europe.

France is under a state of emergency, which was to end after the Tour de France ended. They will have to keep the country under a state of emergency for much longer.
It is hard to see what more France can do, they have stopped other attacks, but as everyone says, the terrorists only have to be successful one time.
France must feel under siege with all these attacks over the last two years.

Aggro? He knows better. Imagine no intelligence in Iraq or Afghanistan, how many US and NATO soldiers would've been killed? Filling a truck full of explosives ain't a run of the mill thing.

Give them time, they have to work how exactly they're going to blame "the west"/israel/capitalism/imperialism or whatever for this.

At this moment in time the number of dead is reported as 73.

There was very vocal and widespread opposition in this country towards the IRAs bombing campaigns in England.

I was in my local and this flashed up on the sky ticker. I literally felt sick to the pit of my stomach and left as soon as I could. Horrifying. I'm actually frightened at the ease the numskulls in EU HQ brush these incidents off.

It is such a pity that wasn't the biggest news event out of France in the past 12 hours.

Disaster? Nice wasn't hit by a hurricane or an earthquake. This was a very deliberate act rooted in religious beliefs.
