Terrorist attacks in France

Five held hostage at Vincennes.

I am watching a live french language TV channel who have resident expert in the studio.

The channel just announced detailed information about the kosher hostage situation. I was very pleased to hear the expert give the two studio journalists a right royal bollocking. Do you no realize that the people behind this have a dozen people somewhere watching this and collecting all detailed information ????!!!

He was totally ignored by the journos who were very keen to return to their gormless diffusion of detailed knowledge and pictures"

This is a link, I hope, to the 'wanted poster' of the couple who remain on the loose.

I just took a quick scan of the press.

The telegraph at http://www.telegraph.co.uk/news/worldnews/europe/france/11335429/Second-hostage-situation-as-shooting-heard-in-eastern-Paris-kosher-grocery.html

Seems to be very up to date and in sync with French live news.

Are these not the two who are holding the hostages in the Jewish supermarket?

Possibly another incident close to the Eiffel tower.

Thoughts with the people of Paris right now. Just terrible. A city brought to chaos and fear by a bunch of Medieval savages.

Yes.
It is him in the shop.

Not sure is she is in there too. They say she is out there in wilds, I thought he was too. Sorry.

He has two assault rifles. Maybe she drove him there.


Big and complete silence around the shop now.

hi, yes, I think she is in there too.

Terrible situation :-(

Best for live news, no froth. Imo

I might post this twice...browser iis confused.

O wait, supermarkets sell halal meat but no kosher meat and groceries. So kosher shops are easy enough to single out. 

Thanks for the link.

Sainsbury's and Tesco sell kosher goods.

Easy to jump to conclusions.

This witness says he say the guy being chased by the police and he ran into the shop. It could be that it was not his target and that he was alone...see the Figaro

Un habitant du quartier a vu un homme armé, coursé par la police se réfugier dans le magasin Hyper Cacher.


The periph is now evacuated 100% and silence reigns.

A hospital has been establised in bank.

They'd have to -T.S. Cohen certainly - however, main supermarkets here don't do kosher  but do halal.

Coulibaly has demanded the release of his two pals Kouachi  in the printing works. According to TV

Very noticeable how media are hinting at the need for more monitoring of all personal communications - new laws will easily be brought in after this.

In the UK. They won't miss the chance.

A pal of Couilbaly and the lawyer of Coulibaly have both arrived on their own initiatives to help the police speak with him.

The expert in the studio who is an ex general special forces has once again pointed out to the apparently gormless journos, that even if Coulibaly does not have a TV in there, then he does have collaborators who will keep him informed. Water off a duck's back once again though.

They just showed excellent long lens shots of three Men in Black climbing onto a roof at or adjacent to the print works. Gormless indeed.

At the Hyper Casher there is a perimeter of 500 meters and a total silence. Thousands of neighbors are closed in their flats. TV a says the schools are not evacuated, but they no longer know for sure. They hope to find the missing woman with the hope she will help negotiations and get the people out safe.


At Dammartin they are evacuating the schools. No movement, no helicos and silence.

At Dammartin there is considerable gunfire and explosions, flash grenades ?

It has started.

Teargas apparently

All TV feeds from Vincennes have stopped for the moment.

Four explosions, automatic fire at Hyper Casher.

TV missed all of it. By design we can assume.
