France will mobilize up to 7,000 soldiers to increase security around the country after a teacher was fatally stabbed and three other people wounded in a school attack by a former student suspected of Islamic radicalization, the president’s office said Saturday.
Some schoolchildren, parents and personnel returned to the Gambetta-Carnot school in the northern city of Arras as it reopened Saturday morning to reconnect and seek support, after the attack Friday that rattled France in a context of global tensions over the Israel-Hamas war.
Counterterrorism authorities are investigating the stabbing, and the suspected assailant and several others are in custody, prosecutors said. The suspect had been under recent surveillance by intelligence services for radicalization. Court documents viewed by The Associated Press show he is from the Ingushetia region in Russia’s Caucasus Mountains, which neighbors Chechnya. Authorities had initially identified him as Chechen.
7000 troop because of a stabbing? Seems a little bit of overkill.
We can only logically assume that they are trying to cover a large land mass or protect several cities or towns and areas at the same time and that these people will not work 24/7 and likely be rotating on and off of schedules.
This becomes far more believable when you start taking in the deployment into consideration.
This all being said I do not condone anything that Hamas and Israel has done, it is a saddening Affair all around.
The guy attended the school where he attacked those poor teachers, but somehow because he’s Muslim, the president and the “premier flic de France” both say it is a terrorist attack linked to what happened in middle east. A day before they were all mouths out like “please don’t import the conflict here”
mobilizing thousands of soldiers against your own citizens immediately after illegalising demonstrating against genocide is a very normal thing to do
believe it or not, but islamic Terrorists aren’t actually Frances own Citizens

can you cite the specific sentence where i implied that murder was okay or normal
Looking at the history of human existence, I’d say murder was already pretty normal.
France looks silly lately
You look silly when you leave such comments

Isn’t it just fascinating where you’ve decided to draw your circle?
The vast majority of terrorism is far-right, either white supremacist of Muslim extremist. But do you draw a line around the far right? Nope.
Those terrorist acts are almost exclusively carried out by men, especially outside the middle east. But do you draw a line around men? Nope.
Instead, you draw a line that includes billions of innocent people because even though it’s not as accurate, it doesn’t include you.
It is funny that everywhere it is almost always Muslims that do terror, but many people always protect them.
Call terrorists as terrorists even when they are religion of piss followers. It is not bigotry or Islamophobia.
of course not, calling nearly a quarter of humanity “terrorists” for the actions of less than a percentage of them is entirely normal, rational behaviour
youre very smart and not underdeveloped twats
Well I think all of humanity are terrorists!
Anyone think it’s weird that the terrorists are never Buddhists?
Dude causally forgets Rohingya.
I didn’t know about Rohingya, but that’s a very good point.
