Terror Attack in Paris, January 7, 2014

Anyone have much information on how the French police managed to get the identify of the attackers so quickly?

They were all masked throughout the attack, and the professionalism and planning that was involved in the attack make it seem very unlikely the attackers were sloppy enough to leave evidence linking themselves directly to the attack at the scene.

According to reports, the police found their IDs in their getaway car.

Latest things first thing this morning.

Thousands gather and send two messages to the terrorists:

"Je suis Charlie!" (I am Charlie)

"Not Afraid"

I am proud of these French. God bless them.

Over night, there are reports of the two terrorist brothers being seen in the North of France. They are still un-caught and are apparently trying to exit the country.

The alleged drive of the vehicle, an 18-year old, has apparently turned himself in and is being questioned.

Another shootout occurred in France overnight killing one police officer. It is not clear yet if that is related.

On cell phone videos and from witnesses, the two attackers told people as they left that they had killed the editor, and that they were a part of Al Queda in Yemen. One of the two brothers had recently been released from prison after spending 18 months in jail on terrorism charges. That same brother was featured a few years ago on a French TV station as an aspiring rap artist.

I know this, the French will respond. You can expect that any terror organization remotely related to this attack will be on the receiving in of French precision guided munitions and/or French special forces.

Guys, this is a thread about the Paris terror attack. All of the senseless arguments about other issues, and people wanting to make this an attack/indictment of western press because they want to inject their complaints about reporting about attacks that occurred in China are being deleted.

cn_habs, Brumby, Assinsmace, and tcontra are receiving warnings for carrying on a senseless argument about that. I understand the sentiment, but raising it, and then particularly continuing it here on this thread with several posts is off topic and against the rules.

If you have an issue about such things occurring on a thread, contact one of the moderators. Arguing about such things here on the forum will get you warned, and then suspended, and ultimately banned.

I'm getting suspicious of the story. First the alleged driver of the get away car went to the police to tell he was in school at the time. Then we get a story about the fugitives shooting near a fuel station in order to get food. Is there truth in the story we are told of what happened after the shooting?

There were also reports of the police surrounding an apartment building yesterday, but it looks like that has since evaporated.

The following points really do seem strange:

1- The gunmen carried out the attack in the middle of the city of Paris, had the time to shoot up the streets, and still get away. Yet they left their ID cards in the car?

2- The gunmen seemed to know that Wednesday was meeting day for Charlie Hebdo and thus all the bigwigs were going to be there. Yet they had to go around asking people at gunpoint where the CH office was? Did they just happen to stumble upon the meeting? Why didn't they find out in advance where the CH office was?

Seems they are 60 km to the north of Paris very actively pursued by the two elite police units : RAID and GIGN

Not really in line with the calm professionalism of the attack is it.
What is the betting that we will soon get the news that Police have received a tip off, have raided an address and that the two suspects are dead?
