French President Francois Hollande has vowed to strike back without mercy, following the attacks in Paris in which 127 people have been killed
French President Francois Hollande has blamed Islamic State for orchestrating the deadly attacks inflicted on France and has vowed to strike back without mercy at what he called an "act of war".
Hollande said at least 127 people died in Friday night's string of attacks in Paris.
He said: "My dear compatriots. What happened last night in Paris, and in Saint Denis by the Stade de France, is an act of war.
“France, because it was attacked cowardly, shamelessly, violently, France will be merciless against the barbarians of Daesh.
“It will act with all the means, within the Law, with all the means necessary. And all all fronts: interior and exterior, in coordination with our allies who themselves are targeted by this threat."

Speaking after an emergency security meeting to plan his government's response, the French President declared three days of national mourning and raised the nation's security to its highest level.

Ioannes:
I am just imagining what goodluck Jonathan's response would have been

"they are my siblings, how can you send army after your brothers and sisters"

or my all time favorite

"there is terrorism everywhere in the world, maybe is our turn"

obum88:

I had to read and reread the news to get the rubbish part. Was it the news itself or the write up or the president of France?

obum88:

Eyes and ears. He should ask for nose and mouth too

imhotep:

Rubbish==> the very idea of making VIOLENCE central to the resolution of disputes.

Think about it:
1) France plans to respond mercilessly.
2) Perhaps Arabs will respond mercilessly to France's merciless response
3) The cycle of idi0tic violence keeps renewing itself.

Terrorism is not what you take on with kid gloves

imhotep:

Agreed, but don't you think Arabs have been demonized and massacred for decades now?

People tend not to notice how offended Arabs are.

let them join the russian in pounding ISIS, not fight them. Forget about Assad for now, nuke ISIS strongholds and kill everything living in there.
