I just heard the news. Fucking hell all of it.

My condolences to France.

 

[Nuzzgok]

Just sat playing Fallout and see this. Really an awful thing, and I hope it ends okay. I don't feel like I can really play Fallout when people elsewhere are dealing with this.

 

[RMI]

really horrible news :-(

thoughts are with the French.

 

[Puppet Shadow]

The difference in reporting is worrying.

For sure, this why I stopped watching Fox and CNN for breaking news, as they often use twitter as their source, not someone they're actually interviewing.

It sounds like they were beheading people, starting to sound like a revenge attack for Jihad John

 

[Marvel]

I think my brother is okay. Thanks GAF. Been giving him updates from you guys to help him navigate home.

Good shit.

 

[SamualDude]

FUCK. I have a friend who only got to Paris today. She was an exchange student from High School. She posted on Facebook so she seems to be ok.

Assault on Bataclan ended. Two terrorists killed.

Fire at refugee camp in Calais.

Hope it's not some kind of sick revenge thing

Holy shit

 

[Herb Alpert]

Oh god, this is sickening...

No, God dammit no!

Do not give in to hate brothers and sisters of France, best way to defend our principles it to strengthen them. Do not become what attacked us tonight, do not succumb to hate and lust for revenge.

 

[Megasoum]

Anybody knows what was the concert tonight at Le Bataclan?

The website is down right now (obviously).

Glad to hear it.

Any word on whether the remaining hostages were saved?

[Jacksinthe]

That's not a helpful attitude. The brain is just a thing, you can understand what makes it tick but only if you want to. If you just assume that evil people do what they do without rhyme or reason then you'll never be able to figure out how to stop them because you won't even try to.

You misunderstand, THEY have a reason, unfortunately it is beyond comprehension to us. You cannot possibly think attacks on innocents like this can simply be waved off? No. It takes a special kind of evil to do this - one the rest of us will never be able to fully dissect because we don't have that.

 

[jaxom]

BFM TV : police said they attacked the bataclan with grenades, nightmare inside

Hope this is just a rumour

 

[segasonic]

Why didn't they start the assault sooner to end the killing?

There was a gaffer locked in a bar reporting in a bit ago

I doubt they planned this in one day.

https://twitter.com/BFMTV/status/665316076083892224

Thank God it ended.

Sadly, they will probably find several dead hostages.

 

[RPGCrazied]

Fox News is saying one was arrested, and said he was recruited for ISIS, and this was an ISIS mission.

 

[Pilgrimzero]

The alternatives are basically A. start bombing random muslim countries, B. deport all muslims/don't allow muslims in european countries, or C. 1984 surveillance.

Are those the things you want? not sure what you're expecting. You guys act like there's some obvious easy solution.

I don't disagree its just sad that it will basically go unpunished. There really isn't much anyone can do that won't make it worse.

Highly doubtful, this was planned for quite some time. Given reports of explosions at the concert hall it's possible that those dismembered bodies are the result of explosives. Horrible.

 

[daveo42]

I wish I could say or do more other than hope those of you in Paris are safe. Absolutely disgusting and heartbreaking.

People will wage a war on muslims/refugees. Which will bring people to Isis and Co.

We need to get out of this circle.

Oh no, not like this...

 

[Maximus.]

Holy fuck

 

[kruis]

Any source behind that statement?

There's a civil war going on in Syria between islamist groups and Assad loyalists. Do you think that those islamists are all from the rest of the Islamic world and Europe while the Pro Assad league consists of Syrians only?

 

[IrishNinja]

He already chickened out of the fight against ISIS, what is he going to say now?

as opposed to

I wouldn't be surprised. The details we'll be getting are going to be sickening as we find out...

Flashbangs. Police wouldnt attack with live grenades with hostages inside

"NOS: Witness say that a lot of people are killed or wounded in Bataclan. /u/bigbramel"

From Reddit Live Update.

 

[Mac_Lane]

According to a BFMTV reporter, it's a carnage inside the Bataclan... Fearing the worst.

 

[FTF]

Holy shit just catching up on this now as I heard it on the radio while driving home from work. Terrible, terrible news.

The information coming out about the Bataclan theater is just horrible.
