Support NeoGAF

[Kalor]

This whole mess is awful. My thoughts to everyone in Paris or have friends/family there tonight.

 

[Kabouter]

If this is Isis now hopefully an army can go in and destroy them instead of relying of incompetent armies and militias

Deploying a 'Christian' army is unlikely to make things any better in the long term though. Just give those morons another excuse to go 'OMG CRUSADERS'

Speaking of WWII, doesn't much of Europe have a bunch of undetonated warheads stuck in the ground? I think a gaffer found one in France. I don't know how common those are but I hope they don't get triggered.

Tons, they are very common, they're also hard to find unless you're doing some construction work, so not exactly dangerous in terms of terrorist use.

 

[Osahi]

Be safe Paris GAF... this is fucking terrible

 

[superdeluxe]

Is there an English language French Stream?

 

[Future Foundation]

porte ouverte = open door

This is excellent.

 

[Joni]

But it won't be effective. ISIS is a movement online and spread out. They are insane, not stupid. If you know or hear of someone becoming radicalized, please beat some sense into them.

I think at this point, if you put motivated soldiers on the ground, they won't bother taking prisoners. I'm expecting straight up executions.

Both the US and Russia have been bombing them pretty heavily over the past few weeks.

[perfectchaos007]

Isn't there already a bunch of tension and animosity in France between the Islamic citizens and the rest of the population? These events are going to make relations that much worse with a ton of hostility if it is indeed an ISIS attack

 

[Starfield]

any livestreams?

 

[UnluckyKate]

#JeSuisParis is tearing me up :'(

 

[Alucrid]

I get off of work to see this, fucking terrible

 

[ElTorro]

HOW THE FUCK can a terrorist operation this huge slip past the intelligence?

These fucking scumbag terrorists. Picking on innocent civilians. You shameless pathetic lowlives. If you had any fucking shred of honor you would fight soldiers on battlefields. Cowards!

You don't need much to inflict terror. That's part of the problem. Very easy to stay under the radar.

 

[DECK'ARD]

Horrible.

The confusion about what exactly is going on is scary even from here.

Stay safe ParisGAF.

Make it a Muslim army then. Get Saudi Arabia off their fucking asses and DO SOMETHING

[bomma_man]

The only winner out of this will be the national front

 

[TCRS]

Every thread, someone blames the victim. Never fails.

I wasn't. not at all, sorry if it came across as if I was.

it was my first reaction and I meant we need to sort this terrorism bullshit out. I'm guessing it's ISIS.

Source?

I think that ship has sailed already. Just go in. How much worse than Isis can it be

No, No God dammit

Paris has had a tons of people going to Syria and coming back, some estimates in the thousands.

Paris intelligence has been saying this was only a matter of time based on the increased radicalization of some sections of the population plus the influx of people coming back from Syria.

In terms of attackers there are probably not that many people. How do you detect a small group making these terrible plans. It's 2 bombs at the moment and maybe a few AK-47s, which can all be smuggled in.

 

[Linius]

what is a good live stream to follow?

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=y60wDzZt8yg

Sky is good I guess, at least it's in English. Can't really follow the French live TV.

 

[Tom Penny]

This is fucking too much I pray this coordinated senseless nonsense isn't to divert everyone from an even bigger move.

 

[Dmax3901]

Get ready folks, this is going to have round the clock coverage all over the world for days until this hostage situation is over

Well yes, as it should. What's your point?

 

[Turkoop]

[TS-08]

Yes.

Also they confirm that there are probably more than 1 hostages situation...

Ugh. This is a nightmare.

 

[FortuneFaded]

The BBC guy interviewing the guy at the bar asking him to describe the dead bodies in the street was gross.

It was shocking.

 

[ElTorro]

That's just what these doomsday-craving lunatics want to provoke with acts like this.

 

[GnawtyDog]

Just got home and saw it. My god!

 

[orioto]

France's President was at the stadium. Guess that means security was good and the people there are safe.

Well actually nobody is really talking about that but tonight some bombs exploded less than what.. 200m of the french president.. This is Huuugely messed up, in term of security.

It will be interesting to see the story after this is all over. I think they might have just organised it the old fashioned way (no technology).

100 kids who died in pakistan got the army to get their act together and now the Taliban in pakistan are destroyed. Hopefully Europe can do the same to Isis

I hadn't heard any news after that incident. I'm glad something good came out of it!

 

[Cuyejo]

There was no support for that under the US and EU population. That might change now in Europe at least. Of course we now have the added trouble with Russia involved there, so it's a mess.

If this indeed ends up being ISIS this will become much more than a mess, an unfolding cold war scenario, acts of war against NATO/Russia, this whole thing is a boiling pot, it will get worse.

 

[Blue Ninja]

Fuck, I take it this is the apparent fourth shooting (considering police cars are already around in that video)?

 

[RdN]

At least 60 dead already.. Just terrible.

 

[Creamium]

This is terrifying because it was so well coordinated... It's like one long string of tragedies.

And the worst part is that - in the worst case scenario - the hostage situation could be terrible if things get out of hand there...

Holy fuck

Apparently a large group of people just left the Bataclan?

The EU has just recently opened borders to people from a warzone where there are millions who hate the west.

I'm gutted to say that I said this would happen when they first did it. I can't believe this is happening.

Seeing reports that the hostage situation is over.

50 people exited the venue just now according to sources.

EDIT: Police at the venue say one gunman in there has explosives.

 

[LordDash]

Yeah me too, read about 50 came out of the theater

 

[Insane Metal]

My mum was supposed to be in Paris today but had changed travel plans to tomorrow. She's obviously not going now. What horrific events. Stay safe Paris and RIP.

Damn, lucky her (and you). Stay safe pal. And you to paris gaf. This is so fucked up.

 

[victreeb3l]

Wow what the fuck. I just heard about this. Fuck man this is awful.
