‘This is the apocalypse’ - Bataclan concert hall survivor



We kill innocent people’: Bataclan survivor says Paris horror made him rethink West’s actions
............................................
At one point the terrorists spoke to three hostages – including one woman, who couldn’t stop crying.

“Why are you crying? Why are you crying?” the jihadists asked.

“Because I’m scared.”

“You don’t have to be scared, you will be dead in few minutes, so don’t worry.”

“This is horrible. Because, what can you do?” Pierre recalls, adding that the girl instantly stopped sobbing. The terrorist said: “It’s because of Francois Hollande, because he attacks our countries.”

Pierre says that despite his disgust for the terrorists’ actions, the Bataclan attack made him reassess certain things about his country’s foreign policies, and realize that the ‘collateral damage’ in far-away military campaigns is made up of real, ordinary people being killed.

& how Kafkaesque -- RT (Putin TV) wants us to think France & Hollande is to blame "because he attacks our countries”--and Putin is doing the same thing now!
I hope you're ashamed & embarrassed to post this. It's ugly and mindless.

Killing 270 people. Almost 2 x as many in Paris. ISIS is blaming Hollande, Putin and Obama. And the kid is French.

people were trampling each other and everyone for themselves at the worst moment.

This should never happen again.
