France can't catch a break, absolutely horrible. My heart goes out to the French all the men, woman, and children.

I honestly don't believe it gets better. I think the world is F'ed and only getting worse.
Because it IS a war zone. 1400 years of history proves that.
France has reached the magic 7.5% of their population being firm believers in their political system and laws are higher than those of the nation they are living in. Read the book "Catastrophic Failure" for additional details.
Sort of like the Master Race in Germany in WW2 could not be demonized until the brown matter was hitting the air mover. I'd also suggest you read up on who these people are and what their actual belief system is and which laws/rules are superior, theirs or the country they live in.
Read writings of those who have studied jihad by migration.
Intelligence agencies get more information from tracking them, I would think. They probably even create fake ones.
I wish it was so simple. I know you claim often to have the truth, but not watching TV does not give you a sole grasp of it.
I will not get into a point by point argument here but painting everything as a battle of two religions or ideologies is exactly the effect these terrorists wants.
Bravo to France for having the maturity and real grasp of the situation to not fall into this trap and for not buying a false narrative.
Don't lose sight of who is "demonizing large swaths of the world's population."
It's the smaller swath of the that population who is responsible.
Not those of us who see the obvious and speak the truth.
Isn't it obvious??
Frances support of Israel.
Her participation in the illegal Iraq invasion.
The economic and racist oppression of her minority population.
It's all there.

A lot of countries support Israel. Why single out France?
I was being a Wisenheimer.
No one is singled out.
They don't kill "because someone blah, blah, blah" they kill because we ain't them.
Until people realize that we do not have to believe the same things as long as we can respect each other as humans, this will continue. Sadly, many do not want to remove the blinders.
It has been said that France is a nice beautiful country and the people also. I read somewhere that the French has a healthy population of islamic and muslim people that they welcomed in, and that these people don't assimilate easy. I don't want to get too political here but it seems that Russia, china, North Korea, even Israel has ''less'' problems than a ''nice'' country such as France, and some claim they hate Israel more than any other country. Granted they all have their issues too, but it seems the 'nice guys' are suffering more. I'm not an expert or qualified to defend any of what 'seems' to me. I PRAY FOR THE FRENCH, they are our friends too.
This, like the Orlando shooting, has nothing to do with beliefs. It's about a**holes doing a**hole things because they're a**holes. Plenty of people hate other people and don't murder anyone.
I have been to France many times. I have always found that the people are very friendly, proud and patriotic, and cherish their liberty. The old phrase, " Nice guys finish last" may be appropriate here.
Our "leaders" have failed us and have no clue how to confront what's going on.
This is not going to be solved with a "jobs program", and has nothing to do with "economic disadvantage". Osama Bin Laden was rich. So are a bunch of the other perps.
I will disagree with some and say that a brutal un-reformed religion has a lot to do with this.
Inspire Magazine (jihadi) recently published an article about how to kill infidels with nothing but a vehicle.
This is nothing but pure evil, and there's really nothing to figure out.
A bear and a rattlesnake can't hibernate in the same cave. One is going to die. "Fairness" and "love" and "understanding" is not part of the equation.
I'd prefer to be the one who wakes up in the Spring.
Until our willfully ignorant population and "leadership" understands that, everyone's screwed.
I know a couple that lives in Nice and emailed them last night to see if they were OK.
I have not received an answer.

there is a bigger picture happening and it's something we cannot discuss here. just envision a single world currency in the coming decades, i.e. food vouchers 
someone mentioned Russia, China, and N. Korea not being subjected. great point! their coffers are exempt, so far.
IMHO

I agree with you, France has done its share of accepting Islam and muslim people. That might be one of the problems, who knows for sure.
