Soldiers fired five shots to disable a man at the entrance to the Louvre in Paris, France Friday morning after the machete-wielding attacker shouted threats and the well known Islamist phrase “Allahu Akhbar”, rushed the troops while carrying two backpacks, reports Le Figaro.

The man was shot in the stomach and bomb-disposal teams have been deployed to assess the contents of the man’s bags. Police have said no explosives have been found.

One soldier sustained light injuries during the attack.

And Fox is now covering the Oscars. Before that, it was the Super Bowl.

“Allahu Akbar”..

It’s ok. McCain says it’s just like Christians saying “Thank God”

But without the bomb, gun, machete, cleaver, ax..

In Europe, we have armed soldiers patrolling the streets to protect against terrorist attacks because we let the terrorists in - this is good and acceptable.
In America, we want to keep prospective terrorists out of the country instead of having soldiers patrol the streets - this is evil and intolerable.

I remember touring the Louvre as a young military wife with my then lieutenant husband ...later we took our kids back and the kids were all wearing french berets - it was a real European Lampoon vacation moment.

Those were the days. Glad we were that lucky to have been able to enjoy a free and beautiful Europe.

I’m not sure this is terror related. It is definitely Muslim related, however.

This is what is known as “conditioning.” It’s getting the public used to the idea of a police state and eternal terrorist attacks.

This is actually GREAT NEWS.

Another 100,000 votes for Le Pen.

Pray France wakes the frick up!

We need Safe Zones in the Middle East. Repatriate the Muslims from Europe and the U.S. there ASAP.

EEE, I have some bad news for you. Much of the public has already been conditioned.

Now it’s back to the Super Bowl. Pretty damn boring for someone (like me) who doesn’t give a rat’s butt about football.
