I do not wish to insult the French, and especially not the brave young people who volunteer to defend their own citizens from wild beasts... but I am increasingly disgusted by the political class that plays games with all our lives, substituting "theater" for real, productive, muscular opposition to those killers and fanatics who state, quite frankly and often, their intentions to kill or enslave us all.

No cartridges in the soldiers' carbines? Unbelievable - except that we'd see the same incalculable stupidity in Britain, in America, and pretty much everywhere in the civilized world. It's past time for a housecleaning amongst our ruling classes.
