Explosions outside France v Germany game at Stade de France
3 different locations throughout the city. Incredible organization there. I'm very concerned, both for the people who suffered tragic losses already, and the political developments that this announces.
It's not hooligans. It's worse than that, for all of us around the world.

One testimony on Liberation's real time feed said she heard allah wakbar.
If you look at the way the operation went, it's too organized to be anything but Daesh I'm afraid. But I have no info. I'll try to keep you posted what I read from the french press here, if i don't get swamped in phone calls. I picked my night to stay home, it's crazy...

AKs and hand grenades potentially used in the attacks sounds like ISIL, but really, it sounds like boots on the ground from the United Nations. Boeing and Lockheed about to eat even better as we enter Obama's last year.
Two police officials say that at least 26 people have been killed in shootings and explosions around Paris, in the deadliest violence in France in decades.Damn
One of the police officials said 11 people were killed in a Paris restaurant in the 10th arrondissement and about 15 killed in the Bataclan theater, where a hostage-taking is under way.
Both officials spoke on condition of anonymity because they were not authorized to be publicly named according to police policy.
is that near the stadium? please don't attack the masses coming out of the stadium, that would be devastating. the thought makes me vomit.
By Dipro Go To Postis that near the stadium? please don't attack the masses coming out of the stadium, that would be devastating. the thought makes me vomit.
The stadium is getting evacuated already, slowly. The president was inside but he's been taken out a while ago. AFAIK no death near the stadium, two suicide bombers who failed I guess. My info can be wrong of course, but that's what i read.
Targeting concerts, soccer games and the popular neighborhoods... I'm disgusted.
Your wars, our deaths.
Your wars, our deaths.
Fuck, a new shooting, in les Halles, right in the middle of town, once again, the people is targeted. Not exactly the State.
I'm not going out. I'm getting a hold of my friends one by one.

Politically, we are thoroughly fucked.
The far right will make incredible progress, the right will bounce back hard and the Left will do its best to go all out hawkish to limit the damage.
Not our wars, but our losses. I'm so sad.

Holy shit! I just saw Obama give a press conference, had no idea this was going on I've been driving to meetings all day.
Wow, holy shit.
Wow, holy shit.
witness of the concert described what happened. vomit worthy. apparantly they said nothing and just shot on people, guy said 20 dead and terrorists were young. 20 years old, total blood bath

This is beyond fucked. All those people. All the dead. And everyone still held hostage.
A number of people were able to escape the theater, including the bands even, but there are still dozens trapped inside.
Fuck these assholes. Lousy cocksucking terrorist scum.

By Eike Go To PostThe police have to move into the theatre. They are waiting too long.
I would leave that judgement... they are not exactly inexperienced in this. We have no way to know what reports are valid and such either right now.

I understand, I just hope they don't hold off for too long.
There's going to be over 100 people dead by the time this is all over.
If anyone is on the fence about the need to exterminate ISIS and wants their governments to sit on the sidelines, this should be a wake-up call. Kill these fuckwads.

Whatever the army is doing outside the theater they better do it fast, I bet the extremists will rather die after killing all hostages than just wait around to be captured.

First, you're uninformed, there has not been a new report of deaths in over an hour.
Second, fuck off with your call for more war and your general politics. Your reaction is what got us there in the first place, with decades of warmongering.
I don't even have words.
But I do have a request, until the dust settles, please keep politics out of this thread.

I hope you stay safe, man...but hell to the fuck no with the rest of that. You want terrorists to stop? You kill them. Because they will not stop. And that's not politics - that's dealing with murderers.

This is not a situation that can be resolved by war. We are talking about people who infiltrate communities, that can remain silent until the time to strike. Going in guns blazing will not solve anything.
can mods get rid of this bullshit please? Because I thought we were supposed to be keeping politics out of this.

You should at least wait for some confirmation on who actually did this. It's also not that simple, you can't just exterminate terrorists. As the west have seen many times, trying to kill terrorists tends to only create more.
By Enron Go To PostYou want terrorists to stop? You kill them. Because they will not stop. And that's not politics - that's dealing with murderers.
This is an overly simplistic take on it.
It doesn't work like that. Collateral damage results in more reasons for people to radicalize.
People seem to think terrorists just grow out of the ground.
By Enron Go To Postcan mods get rid of this bullshit please? Because I thought we were supposed to be keeping politics out of this.Fuck off. Your name is already telling the whole story about your dumb self. I don't want to read call for wars tonight. I actually know two dozens of people who live in the areas of the attacks, it's just not for you to come in and call for blood in the comfort of your home.
