TERROR IN FRANCE: POLICE KILL MUSLIM FANATICS IN STANDOFFS; UPDATE: HUNT FOR FEMALE TERRORIST BOUMEDDIENE

Posted on | January 9, 2015 | 43 Comments

Hayat Boumeddiene (left) and Amedy Coulibaly (right)

Events in and around Paris unfolded so rapidly Friday that news reports were still confused and tentative as night fell in France:

French police have released the names and pictures of two suspects wanted in connection with the killing of policewoman Clarissa Jean-Philippe in Montrouge and an ongoing hostage siege at a kosher supermarket in a Paris suburb.
The suspects, 32-year-old Amedy Coulibaly and 26-year-old Hayat Boumeddiene, are described as “armed and dangerous” and are being hunted by police for the killing of the policewoman.
Coulibaly is also believed to be behind the shootout and siege at a Jewish supermarket in Porte de Vincennes, in which two people have reportedly died and at least five people are being held hostage, including women and children.

Culibaly was reportedly killed by police, and the death toll of hostages at the kosher market is now reported at three. Boumeddiene is said to be at large. Coulibaly was reportedly an accomplice of the two brothers who killed 12 people in the Wednesday attack. Both of them were killed by police after a hostage standoff Friday:

The French police on Friday killed the two brothers suspected of massacring 12 people at a Paris newspaper on Wednesday and freed a hostage they had been holding unharmed, the authorities said. The police also killed another hostage-taker, described as an associate of the brothers, in a separate assault on a kosher supermarket in Paris.
Three hostages were killed and five injured at the market, although it was not immediately clear how many of those may have been shot in the final assault. Five hostages were reported to have been freed unharmed, a senior French police official said.
The assault against the two brothers, suspects in the attack on the satirical newspaper Charlie Hebdo, began shortly after 5 p.m. Explosions and gunfire were heard at a printing plant in Dammartin-en-Goële, outside of Paris, where the gunmen were holding a single hostage.

UPDATE: The suspect who remains at large:

The whereabouts of Hayat Boumedienne are unknown after police named her as an “armed and dangerous” suspect.
The 26-year-old is believed to have been in a relationship with Coulibaly since 2010 and reportedly lived in his apartment while he was in prison for his part in a plot to spring Paris metro bomber Smain Ait Ali Belkacem from prison.
According to Le Monde, Boumeddienne said they practised firing crossbows together in the countryside while visiting Islamic radical Djamel Beghal. . . .
Boumeddienne was previously interviewed by French anti-terror police in 2010, it was reported, but it was unclear whether any action was taken against her.

UPDATE: More information emerges:

Boumeddiene is linked to the Kouachis through Couliably, whom police believe became radicalized after meeting one of the brothers around 2005 while he was jailed for robbery.
Coulibaly was later arrested in 2010 in connection to plans to free a terrorist serving a life sentence for the Paris metro attack in 1995 and served a four-year prison sentence. After being released in 2014, he moved in with Boumeddine.
In 2010, during a visit to Djamel Beghal, a convicted al Qaeda terrorist under house arrest in southern France, Boumeddiene and Couliably took a series of photos together. When Boumeddiene was asked about the trip by police she claimed they were there for “crossbow practice.”

This is astonishing. All of these Muslim terrorists — Boumeddiene, Couliably and the Kouachi brothers — were known to French authorities and yet they were evidently permitted to loiter around in the suburbs of Paris, plotting their deadly attack? Really? Who is in charge of the French anti-terrorism unit, Inspector Clouseau?

    French President Francios Hollande has just come out with this gem: “Those who committed these acts have nothing to do with the Muslim religion.”

    These f-ckers who claim to lead us must think we are all idiots. Granted the 50% who vote Democrat mostly are, but this intentional lying to your constituents about the nature of these attacks needs to end. All over the world peaceful moderate (enabling fifth columnist) muslims get to wander around Western countries holding up signs that essentially endorse this violence, confirming that their religion does indeed support the death of infidels and we do nothing.

    Sun Tzu always relevant:

    “If you know neither the enemy nor yourself, you will succumb in every battle.”
    “Supreme excellence consists of breaking the enemy’s resistance without fighting.”

    I am willing, to a certain degree, to accept the argument that these bastards do not “represent” Islam, and are a murderous subsect.

    The question is, how large is this subsect?

    That’s why the people who say “What about Christian extremists?” are so worthy of contempt. How many acts of “Christian” terrorism can you point out, and by what percentage of Christians? And what percentage of Christians support them? All of those numbers pale in comparison to their Muslim counterparts.

    So yeah, they can take their moral equivalence and shove it….

    What is “astonishing” about it? Just like in America, in France they don’t arrest people for the crimes they might commit, or even the ones they are likely to commit. One brother was released after 18 months of a 3 year sentence for his role in arranging trips to Iraq, which is pretty lenient, but once you’re out, you’re out.

    The real problem is they let so many musselmen in over the years, anyone with a connection to the former colony Algeria could always enter. Now they’ve got whole neighborhoods, towns and even small cities of them, festering terrorism.

    Apparently both of the brothers were known to have gone to Iraq or Syria to fight. They didn’t have to let them come back. I’ve never understood the hand wringing over young people from here and Europe going to the ME to fight. I think it’s great that they do so. The key is to make sure they never come back, not even in a body bag. Obviously killing them over there is the ideal solution.

    Make France a Muslim majority country and tell me what you see. People who are arguing about “moderates” are missing the point. It is the moderates who make up Islam and who act as the ocean that will drown non-Muslim into second place status, just like in their home countries. France, like all of the West, is currently a slow-motion suicide cult.

    The hilarious thing about hate speech laws some liberals are calling for is that is they were truly neutral laws liberals would be most affected by them. By my reckoning, when it comes to mainstream internet outlets like The Atlantic, The Root or Jezebel, liberals engage in group libel by race, sex and gender expression probably to the tune of 90% of all hate speech out there.

    Who among conservatives would be affected? Amanda Marcotte, Ta-Nehisi Coates, virtually the entirety of last year’s Hugo and Nebula Award winners, Laurie Penny, Jessica Valenti, Anita Sarkeesian, Brianna Wu, Arthur Chu, and about 100 others I could name would be shut down and without careers. Be careful what you wish for, assholes.

    You’re missing one essential point: progressives always assume that they will be the ones on top of their totalitarian state. They make this mistake all of the time, apparently believing that Hitler, Mussolini, Stalin, Pol Pot, Mao, Che and all the rest were the best and brightest of their nations.

    Scum rises to the top. The people who run totalitarian states are always the most ruthless, and everybody on the list you name will be on the cattle cars to the Gulag anxiously protesting “No, there must be some mistake! You meant to get Sarah Palin and Rush Limbaugh! Comrades, I am not your enemy!”

    No, actually I meant “Hey, you know those Tsarnaev brothers? They’re really bad eggs.”

    From the Russians. Yeah, they warned us about them.

    For that matter, everybody that had contact with Mad Major Hassan knew he was Big Trouble, and nobody did anything, because, waaaaaacism!

    So having your name on the list, hell, being positively identified as having jihadi contacts, doesn’t mean a damn thing. Except maybe that a couple of GS-5 pencil pushers spend time updating the list in between bouts of Minecraft and Solitaire.
