Attacks in Paris

I opposed those wars. But this is different. Isis is nothing like anything we've faced before.

I beg you to read this. It's the most celebrated, comprehensive account of Isis' motives ever published for the public

People inside the theater are communicating with journalists. One journalist on CNN said his sources indicate the people inside are begging the French to raid the theater. The hostages takers aren't there to negotiate.

Ta, I wouldn't trust CNN tho, they are liable to make shit up to get ratings.

Am sticking with BBC for now.

I dont particularly want to. I would much rather he be in an urgent conference with the intelligence community than talking to a journalist asking him questions that he wont have the answers to until he talks to the intelligence community

That sort of shit needs stopping right now. Should be increasing the police and military budgets not cut it so we couldn't handle an attack when one comes.

well the ramping up of territorials hasn't gone at all well to make up the shortfall and I am sure the prospect of being rushed into a fight against ISIS wouldn't do a lot to cause a rush to the terriers. Then there is the Police - shedding officers hand over fist!! Makes us all feel really safe that we can respond to this sort of thing eh? If they time it right they could even get us when the doctors are on strike !!

It's probably the most backwards thing in mankind. It's millennia out of date. It's mostly fictional bollocks.

The thing is a lot of this isn't about religion. It's about the have-nots being sick of the haves having and taking everything and wanting what they've got; money, land, power.
 
France under state of emergency and borders closed.

I get the impression from Hollande's rhetoric means they are going balls out to stop this and any other plots they may have a whiff of?

will happen here soon enough

It probably will, not sure we can stop them all, but unlikely on this scale, we have excellent intelligence, we've had lots of experience for decades, which is why so many plots have been foiled since 2005, and it is many, some reported, many not.

Most people on here don't have the first idea how good our intelligence actually is.
