My point still stands, they succeeded in their mission.No.
Yes sure, they died as martyrs though, just as they wanted. They killed those poor people, their life had no further meaning anymore.
Please, don't try to think I'm sympathizing with those sub human terrorists. Feel free to disagree with what I'm saying, that's okay, it's just how I'm seeing things.

You've never seen one!? They fire 9mm buckshot!
There are a lot of suspicious packages reported on Paris metro network, probably because of a sense of fear with the commuters, however, none have been confirmed. There will be a lot of those in the next few days, sadly a logical consequence of what have been happening.

We should make fun of these assholes and ridicule them and humiliate them.
Let's not allow them to be martyr, show them for the utter fools they are.

"Hostage" of the #Dammartin was actually hidden. The Kouachi brothers were unaware that he was thereBFMTV

There are ways to communicate that don't involve Cellphones.
All he needed was a TV and he would have know if something happenned on the other incident.
Maybe a communication was set-up by the special forces BUT we have no way to know if a communication or a negociation was possible.
They probably killed hostages maybe when he took hostages or maybe in order to keep control , who knows ? We are lacking information on what happenned INSIDE.
Totally . I wouldn't imagine what they could have done if they knew they had a leverage nearby.

YYeah, this happened for a while after the London bombings
If they really wanted to die as martyrs, there was no point in escaping the Charlie Hebdo headquarters. They were trying to survive.

Now anyone will call to make bomb threats and claim they will attack there and here just to create fear.
Add a pen or pencil to it, seems appropriate.

HOLY SHIT. The hostage literally pulled a Solid Snake and lived to tell about it. Glad the hostage is alive.
Didn't they say they wanted to die as martyrs on the phone or something like that? I agree that their actions contradict their words.
And they will be punished like the people that did in the past.
Yes, they said after a 50 hour escape attempts leaves them trapped in a giant building surrounded by thousands of agents, helicopters and a fucking tank. Actions speak louder than words.
The two brothers responsible for the attack on Charlie Hebdo wednesday were trapped in a factory this morning circa 9am, at 50km north-east of Paris. There was a young man trapped inside. They said they would die as martyrs. After negociations all days, they apparently ran out near 5pm, and GIGN had to shot them down. No casualties among policemen there, both terrorists are dead, the man (not really an hostage, apparently) is safe.
At 11am, another attack was launched on a jew supermarket inside Paris (Vincennes). Apparently, a man entered and shot everywhere in the shop, and some may have been wounded/killed, and took around 15 customers in hostage. He was identified as the man responsible for the murder of a young policewoman yesterday. He know the younger brothers, and ask for a safe exit for the two brothers. Shortly after the assault in the factory, RAID assaulted the supermarket. There's a badly wounded policeman, and another lightly wounded. The terrorist was killed, and apparently another man, possibly an accomplice. And unfortunately, also three customers were found dead, killed before the assault (when they entered the shop, or before the assault). There's also four customers hurt among the dozen that were freef.
u wot
This will go down as when they tried attacking the cartells in Mexico...

No they died like idiots who will not be remembered.
I would like for them to be captured alive only to toss them into a dark cell for the rest of their lifes, but if death is what they wanted, I hope the devil has a special place for them in hell.

I don't think that right now they are making love with 70 virgins, giving high fives to Allah, wondering how the coran words are now stronger and the world will take example from their actions.
Terrorists always lose, they may seem to win for some days but in the end they lose. Everyone loses and that's it, probably Europe will embrace even more far right ideas but that's not what they wanted.
Ugh yeah, that backfired kinda hard.

Seems like the hostage in #Dammartin was more in a closet than a box.

CNN: first; African American man...
Now; Man of African descent. As if the other guys weren't of African descent.

its from CNN so it is not surprising
Totally agreed.
Perhaps you're right, their "win" is only temporary. They will be forgotten but I hope their victims won't.
You sure? One of the goals of terrorism like this is to cause more right wing ideas to spread to further alienate a minority which then leads to more of them becoming radicalized.

American journalists aren't used to reporting international news.
They might as well be made of cardboard for all the good they are.
That in no way was an escape bid. They can say it is all they want but those people went out to die. Someone who does what they did these past few days is smart enough to know they wouldn't have ever escaped. It was most certainly assisted suicide.

That's exactly what they wanted. Polarising the society.

Killed a newspaper, dead in a printing shop.
Being an Islamist and dying in a Kosher shop during prayer.
Gotta love the irony.

I guess the pen is really mightier than the sword.
Fixed that for you.
More right wing influences = more alienation against minorities = more radicalization = more terrorism.
The question if they win or not depend on how we act. It's up to us.

You know that Kosher foods are consumed by Jews and not by people of Islam right? Islam has Halal which is similar, but not the same as something that is Kosher.
Man, talk about wrong day to perform a robbery.

So apparently ISIS claims to be responsible for the attacks?
fabricated backlash

Now go back and think about what you just wrote. You basically explained the joke.
Were there not reports about the terrorists screaming that they are from Al Quaida Yemen?
Jesus Christ, the heroes of the day get no break.

Wrong about commas, wrong about everything
If youre win conditions are "Kill a bunch of unarmed people, then die" then it's really hard not to "win"
