Six shootings and three explosions have rocked the Stade de France in Saint-Denis, Paris. An ongoing shootout is taking place at the venue as French President Francois Hollande is evacuated to safety as he attended a soccer match. The attackers are reportedly equipped with AK-47 assault rifles.
So far there is no indication of any threat to US citizens at this time. Emergency briefings are being conducted by President Francois Hollande, Prime Minister Manuel Valls, and Interior Minister Bernard Cazeneuve. Currently, the suspected shooters are assumed to by Syrian “returnees,” citizens who traveled to Syria and returned to Paris.
If true, this would indicate that these assailants were perhaps trained at ISIS terror camps, though it is yet undetermined who these terrorists are affiliated with.
An ongoing terrorist attack in Paris has left 60 dead. Hostages have been taken and police are working on subduing the assailants.
— At least 60 people have died in the attacks, CNN affiliate BFMTV reported.
— Counterterrorism officials around the United States have convened secure conference calls to try to gather information and to assess whether there is any indication of threats in the U.S, according to two U.S. counterterrorism officials. There is nothing to indicate any threat to U.S. cities so far. Immediate suspicion for the events in Paris falls to so-called returnees — people who have traveled to Syria and Iraq and have returned, the officials said.

There was a lockdown at the Stade de France due to possible explosions, according to French media. President Francois Hollande was at the stadium, watching France playing world champions Germany in a friendly soccer match, but he left to go to the Interior Ministry.
Police were outside the scene of one of the shootings, a restaurant in the 10th District.
Lylia Melkonian, a reporter for France 2, told CNN the neighborhood has many restaurants that were packed with patrons. Melkonian said authorities were evacuating the area.

A few other things wrong with this. Half of the Muslims hate the other half more than they hate anyone else. This is a proxy war between Saudi Arabia and Iran, nothing more. Force the Saudis to stop funding daesh, and daesh will stop existing. Iran is actually our greatest ally against daesh, swallow that for a moment.
Jim, you are not going to be able to swallow as Isis said they would cut out the tongue of anyone who called them daesh!
We are ready. We are well armed. And we are pissed and we out number you. Please try something. We dare you.
Unfortunately Jim Kukulski you are correct,and also prove the point
Wow you’re all idiot sheep. This happened a week ago and it was only evacuated out of security concerns. No one died…look it up sheep

What Dr esearch tool did they use to gather data? Where and how did they come up.with the numbers 17 and 25%? And where did they gather their data? In the Middle East…in America? Was it a survey (the absolute worst way to gather data) and if it was a survey, is that survey valid(does it measure what it is designed to measure) and is it reliable( are the results repeatable)? See, when I read these claims involving numbers, first thing I think (or any half intelligent researcher would think) is how did they gather data…where did they get a sample population? Who designed the instrument(Im assuming it was.survey, since physiological measures are out,,,,,moral of the story: dont gobble up everything thing the.media or some flaky researcher tries to spoonfeed ya just because it validates some.previously.held belief.,,,,just because u find it agreeable doesnt make it true.
