    Thur.. 11/19... cafe videos showing glass flying and shattering among gun shots... woman in coat running through the door heading to the floor behind the counter... (appears she smashed the glass on the door to break in and run for cover)...

    ... is she looking down at a cell phone held between her two hands?... possibly texting?.. or dialing?... as she is bolting for cover?

    I've seen that clip a half dozen times and it looks like she is holding something with both palms and looking right at her hands... if so, then this is the #1 video in all of social media to be under live gun fire and run for cover while 'messing' with a phone.

    Is that new news? I remember that being reported within a day or 2 of the original attack. Something along the lines of he escaped back to "Syria" and may have even boasted if his escape in Social Media.

    Sorry, I was mocking "BBC Breaking News" reporting on 2 week old information. Not mocking you but BBC.

    Still not sure we are on same page? This report is based on Belgian sources about a failed raid back in January. At the time, Abaaoud was directing a Belgium cell from Athens.

    Abaaoud didnt "escape to Syria" but died in Paris Nov 18

    I know Abaaoud is dead. :) No, it was reported in the days immediately following the Paris attacks that authorities tried to arrest Abaaoud in Greece after tracking his cell phone but he escaped. At the time it was thought he absconded back to Syria but it's possible he actually went back into Paris. The point at the time was that Abaaoud openly boasted that he could leave/enter Europe whenever he wanted.

    I would be shocked if it were only 90 trained Syrians that got into Europe as refugees

    90 is how many the rabidly pro-migrant (I won't use the word "refugee" anymore.) governments know and admit got into Europe.

    I have been in many locker rooms, and both received and given many motivational speeches, but this is one of the best I have ever been exposed to. I am pumped after reading that, Texas ex 2000! Etch that in stone and place it in front of the Nation's Capitol!

    Freedom is also incompatible the values of French society. Only atheism, fancy food, and violent revolution is compatible with French society.

    To be fair, Americans often judge "French society" based on how we perceive Paris, but that's like judging "American society" based on New York City. Paris is largely a bunch of God-hating socialists, and the rest of the city is Muslim. However, outside of Paris, France is less radical, more Christian, and far less crazy.

    I'll take your word for it. They are the most socialist country in Western Europe today.

    I would probably put the Nordic countries (especially Sweden) further left, but France is pretty far out there. Also, look out for Portugal. Their most recent election was a disaster.

    The Nordic countries aren't socialist. They are capitalists with a large welfare state. They score more or less the same as the US on the economic freedom index. France doesn't.

    Plus, violent leftist revolution was invented in France.

    I'm not entirely sure I agree with the Economic Freedom Index. They put the UK and Iceland ahead of the United States. I think that's pretty hard to justify. I understand the difference between socialism and lots of welfare, but they can blur. For example, Sweden is pretty close to true socialized medicine - not just in financing. The government is not only the primary payer for healthcare, it is the primary provider. That isn't the case in France.

    Yep, that's true.
