He said France "will be merciless toward the barbarians of Islamic State group." France "will act by all means anywhere, inside or outside the country."
Yes! Vive la France

I do think the U.S. should take a hand in this horror. But not some replay of the self-serving Bush/Cheney (et al.) disasters.
These villains should be dealt with as criminals as we should have dealt with the 9/11 murderers. We are a rich, rich country and can always print more money. Put our many spooks to work scouring the globe for the baddest, meanest motherfuckers that can be hired. Pay them extravagantly, equip them well, and give them the best intelligence possible. Then have them go Keyser Soze on these loonies. Kill them, their families, their associates, their friends and neighbors.
I read of a Jordanian using the word exterminate. Exactly. 9705. arkymalarky - 11/14/2015 5:25:46 PM
I agree 9706. arkymalarky - 11/14/2015 5:29:59 PM Maybe not to extent, but we need to take a much more surgical approach than we've been taking. What we've been doing is creating more resentment that leads to more radicalization. And we have nothing to show for it except a big hot mess. 9707. Ms. No - 11/15/2015 4:18:27 AM I think terrorists and assassins should no longer be identified by name in the media.
They should get codes like 111315m35Sy - 35yo Syrian male involved in a terrorist attack on 11-13-2015. Nobody ever should be able to pick up a mainstream newspaper and hold these guys up as heroes or martyrs or role models for bragging rights.
Their victims are the true martyrs - people violently murdered for their beliefs which don't match those of their attackers.
I think the same rule should apply to mass murderers here in the States. It has become the new way for angry, self-absorbed, mal-adjusted shitheads to grab their 15 weeks of fame, and we shouldn't give it to them.
"Wanna get famous by killing a bunch of innocent people because you're too lazy to actually make something of yourself? Screw you. Nobody will know your name."
9708. robertjayb - 11/15/2015 4:59:03 AM Yes...An important move:
One of the dead gunmen was French. He had ties to Islamist militants and was known to the security services. French media said the man's brother and father were arrested on Saturday. 9709. robertjayb - 11/16/2015 9:18:40 PM Good Idea:
PARIS (AP) - France wants to bring the United States and Russia together in a grand coalition dedicated to smashing the Islamic State group, President Francois Hollande told lawmakers Monday...
Let Vladimir run it...and trust but verify. 9710. judithathome - 11/17/2015 12:54:44 AM Blast From the Past: the Onion, 2003 This war will destabilize the entire mideast region and their children will come for us.... 9711. robertjayb - 11/17/2015 1:56:41 AM Thanks, Judith. Good to be reminded that some were precient.
But who now? 9712. robertjayb - 11/17/2015 2:27:25 AM Thanks, Judith. Good to be reminded that some were precient.
But who now? 9713. robertjayb - 11/18/2015 5:09:16 PM Alright!!
MOSCOW (AP) - In a striking shift, President Barack Obama and Russian President Vladimir Putin are embarking on a tentative path toward closer ties and possible military cooperation... After weeks of accusing Moscow of trying to prop up Syrian President Bashar Assad by bombing U.S.-backed rebels, Obama changed his tune on Wednesday... Putin, too, has issued conciliatory signals, softening his tone about the U.S. and calling for the U.S. and Russia to "stand together" against the extremist threat.
9714. judithathome - 11/18/2015 8:38:55 PM Well, I hope this works out... 9715. iiibbb - 11/18/2015 8:42:39 PM So disgusted by our country trying to turn away refugees. 9716. iiibbb - 11/18/2015 8:43:16 PM What the fuck is wrong with some people?
