#1 ...As glad as I am that these monsters are identified and on the run, it occurs to me that given the speed with which the Authorities were able to ID them either said Authorities threw away the rules in their efforts to get them...or they were already on the radar.

#4 Were the French getting 'help' from the FBI in 'watching' dangerous suspects? (re: Hood, Boston)

#5 The suspects’ ID cards were found in an abandoned vehicle near the scene of the attack, according to Ynet.

So much for the "highly trained and disciplined professionals."

#7 Besoeker: The police is saying it identified the djihadists through an ID card forgotten in the car. Thts is not necessarily true. Could be, could be, they want to protect a source or tracking method

Also in the Madrid bombings there were many funny things. Like using SIM cards (unneeded) who allowed the police to track them. Also the SIM cards came from the store of one of the main suspects. Why in the hell didn't he buy one anonymously in another store instead of letting behind this blatant piece of evidence. Did I mention the phone with the SIM card wasn't wired to the bomb? And this undestroyed card led the police to catching the suspects just before the elections. So... couldn't it be that the jihadists (admitting the gys jailed were not a scape goat since many leads point to a Spanish authorship) wanted to be caught and caught early in order to influence elections?

So with the Charly Hebdo shootings couldn't it be that those guys purposefully let the ID in order to draw police atention towards them and let the culprits escape?

So here you have twp possible explanations:
-Police trying to hide how it identified the jihadists
-Jihadists wanting to be caught.

#8 The police officer murdered in front of the cameras was a biker cop. Not really a tough guy trained for such situations. AFAIK such cops fire less rounds at the firing range in one year than a Marine in one day. In addition he was surprised, unarmored and with a mere side arm against two oppenents who probably wearing body armor and were armed with Kalashnikovs.

#10 I opt for "Police trying to hide how it identified the jihadists"

Now just shoot them. Slowly. Aim a bit too low

#12 "Aim a bit too low"

I'd say somewhat below the navel and somewhat above the knees, EC.

If you get my drift . . . .

#13 JFM, does France have the equivalent of the US 5th Amendment? The amendments says that you cannot be forced to be a witness against yourself.
