Form say's they'll surrender shortly.

Shit, another one - this time right in Paris in a kosher store -multiple hostages included 1 or 2 injured:

Several people were taken hostage at a kosher supermarket in eastern Paris on Friday after a shootout involving a man armed with two guns, a police source said.


There were unconfirmed local media reports that the man was the same as the one suspected of killing a policewoman in a southern suburb of Paris on Thursday.


A police source had told Reuters earlier he was a member of the same jihadist group as the two suspects in Wednesday’s attack at weekly newspaper Charlie Hebdo.


The exact number of hostages was unclear. Local media spoke of at least five. The police source said the man was equipped with automatic weapons.


Police immediately cordoned off the area and a helicopter was flying overhead. Local media said Interior Minister Bernard Cazeneuve was rushing to the scene

Fuck extremist Muslims and their satanic death-cult. It is Muslims killing each other and cutting each others heads off in all the countries listed by phuketrichard, and doing it in the name of their so called religion. It has nothing to do with foreign involvement. They have been slaughtering each other for 1500 years. Try living as a non-muslim in a Muslim country. "Religion of peace", my ass. It is darkness and enslavement. Any woman who willingly adopts that backwards cult deserves what they get.

Phuketrichard, you wouldn't last a day in any of those countries you listed, with your liberal ways. You would have to hide everything you enjoy and everything you personally believe in just to survive. The local men would saw your head off and put the video on Youtube. The hippy-drippy Afghanistan of 1977 you seem to fondly remember is long dead.

It's a good thing that those "Martyrs" were killed or else a new round of hostage-taking would begin to free them.

They certainly do recruit scum.

It could be seen as payback for French colonialism 100 years later. Their certainly wouldn't be such a large Muslim population in France if not for the occupation of N Africa.

Islamofascists! Go after the real criminals/crazies, the Imams that are putting this craziness in the shooters heads.

Interesting article here by Robert Fisk explaining how the colonization of Algeria is still affecting France today. There has been no real reconciliation between the two countries, yet they are tied together by a shared past which they both seem to want to forget/deny. As a result, there is a lot of conflicting sentiments among French nationals of Algerian descent.
