Now there is ALSO a supermarket hostage taking in East Paris, connected to all this. I'm going to guess that there will be many more such incidents [now 4] in the next hours and days.
Aha, now I look and see this was posted above...sorry. Well, kosher is close to halal, in fact identical...so the gunmen can eat without problems....
...al Jazeera and other news outlets are having a hard time covering all of these 'breaking stories' that are all so high-profile.
By the way, the number of school children next to the warehouse with the two original Paris shooters number 1000, and the Police report that the brothers have agreed to their removal - so if these are terrorists, they are under certain circumstances, very civil ones. When they took one woman's car, they didn't hurt her, and told her [reportedly] to only tell the authorities the car was being taken in the name of al Qaeda in Yemen. They didn't hurt the man at the service station either. Whether any or all of the reports are true we really don't know...but it is interesting if they are.
Also new, the hostage taking male at the Kosher Supermarket [he has his girlfriend as co-hostage taker along] is the same man who shot and killed the policewoman in South Paris, and is a friend of the brothers......all very interesting. Paris has, of all European countries, the highest numbers and percentage of both Jews and Muslims....and this event seems pointed not at the French state, nor 'blasphemous cartoonists', but at persons who who would frequent a Kosher market [mostly Jews].
Paris is one busy place right about now....and my guess is it will get even busier in the next hours and days.
