    This is sounding like a really awful attack.

    My thoughts are with Paris and all those there right now.

    Fairly safe to say it will raise well above 18...

    Any indication of how many people are in the concert hall? This could get much worse really fast!

    Bataclan is 1500 capacity AFAIK.

    If this was the 40's ISIS would have been wiped off the Earth by now. US did not mine killing thousands of innocent Japanese but won't wipe out this scum . World is no PC .
    Someone need to step up, Putin probably .

    If the U.S. went in we'd have protests in Dublin.

    Instead of sending poxy drones to kill one fella Putin should just nuke the shít out of North East Syria and be done with these scum.

    And stop letting them into Europe ffs. They said they were doing it, they ARE doing it, time to stem the tide.

    And while they were bombing shopping centres in Warrington???

    They were evil scumbags. Those in the republican movement who at the time tried to weasel their way out of proper condemnation of it with whataboutery & other forms of sophistry eventually had to either change their approach or were sidelined in order for the Peace Process to work. Today, those whose immediate response to outrages such as the ongoing incident tonight is to worry about how the feelings of Islamists might be hurt by criticism are playing a similarly morally questionable role.

    The West has caused this with their stupidity in getting rid of Hussain and Gaddafi.

    God Bless Putin.

    no messin'

    unfortunately he sent the rats scurrying back to Europe. Watch out for similar attacks in the UK soon.

    Need to wake the f*ck up. Angela Merkel should be tried for treason.

    Practice probably for next years euros in France.

    At the current rate of migrant influx, over 1 million military-aged, almost entirely muslim men will have illegally entered Europe by the start of the Euro football championships in June .

    Sobering thought.

    ISIS promised this.... and our leaders let it happen.

    The religion of peace again.

    But of course we know what the response will be over the next 24 hours. Outrage, disgust and then the typical PC liberals will come out and use hastags to make people know they aren't racist when Islam isn't even a race.

    The first I saw of this was a bunch of FB posts decrying upcoming (potential?) racist comments against Muslims. Not the shooting. Nah. I had to actually to searching for what the hell they were on about. I guess some people just have an agenda to adhere to.


    Very sad. R.I.P. France seems to be getting a lot of this.

    The US is a war economy and ISIS is a cheap easy enemy to spend billions tinkering about with.

    If this is radicalised Muslims, then we need to stop taking in refugees. They simply won't integrate into society that doesn't follow their rules.
    Of course they won't integrate. You are an infidel after all. The British security are doing an amazing job preventing such an attack since 7/7.

    At some point the Islamists are going to have to be rooted out of their lairs building by building, suburb by suburb within Europe while IS is dealt with on a comprehensive scale in the middle east.
