#2 an interior ministry spokesman, Pierre-Henry Brandet, said it was too early to be certain of the killers’ motives

I guess they could've been Royalist fanatics.

#3 FBI director Comey will refer to the driver as just extremely careless.
The words "Islamic Road Rage" will henceforth NOT be allowed by government officials.
Word is the truck was acquired legally.
But trucks no larger than 2 tons will be allowed on the road during major crowd events.
Oh, and white French folk are to blame per Hillary.

#4 He'll be traveling to the Riviera soon no doubt. Michelle, kids, and granny in separate lifts along with an entourage of hundreds of strap hangers.

#5 CBS radio said a few minutes ago, the driver had a hard life, recent divorce, fell asleep in his truck, got fired. Failed to mention the Allen Snackbar part.

#6 Perp's mom quoted as saying he was a good boy and studied the Koran every day. He just fell in with the wrong bunch of jihadis.

#7 Sky News doesn't bother to mention his name or religion....

The MSM is there to mislead not inform.

#8 ISIS has finally realized the potential of the european islamic fifth column.
This will accelerate the rise of European right wing parties. Are we now witnessing the beginning of the a islamic holocust ? or have all Europeans been castrated by the multiculti left wing Eunuchs ?

#10 Hussein Obama probably thinks it's all a big misunderstanding and that the French should apologize for hurting Islamist feelings and then everything will be just roses.

#11 Can the French figure that "you have to fight fire with fire", or do they need another Italian to lead them?

#12 I still wonder just how long the French people will continue to accept this cancer in their country.

#17 Marseille, probably the most culturally diverse city in France is less than 200km from Nice. I wonder how many Muslims are listed in the casualties?

Any potential advance warning ?

#18 Takbir - Allahu Ackbar was shouted by the killer as he murders the innocent seeking absolution for his sins by killing infidels in order to advance his version of extremist ahl al-sunnah Islam.

And the MSM does not report this to the masses. Nothing to see here - move along, move along...this does not fit the MSM narrative that Sunni Islamic extremism is being destroyed by Obama's nuanced approach. Well, there is nothing nuanced by having the life intentionally crushed out of you and your children by a five ton truck.

#19 Our MSM in the U.S. are still trying to figure out what motivated the guy (A hint for the MSM who are a bit slow: Islam).

#20 Not until obama was elected did we have one of these attacks go down every month.

#21 I cannot imagine the French meekly, passively allowing this sort of thing to happen to them.

#23 OK guys, take the gloves off.

1) basically bulldoze a large area of Syria on the iraq border big enough for a camp the size of Kuwait.
2) build a wall/fence around it.
3) Incarcerate all invaders, refugees, etc. of a Muslim persuasion in said camp and tell them to run it by their beloved Sharia.
4) Give it to KSA, Pakistan and Iran to administer.

#24 waiting for the Obama administration to tally the deaths as 'vehicular' instead of terrorism.

#25 I have a better idea. For every victim of terror in the Western World we take over an oilfield in Saudi Arabia.
