"Second ... we don’t want to alarm (people) too much," This has got to win the comment of the week!!!!!

I look forward to reading the wildly silly interpretations certain apologists for militant, transnational Islam will offer on this one.

France’s Foreign Ministry is warning French travelers of a high terrorism risk in Britain

Could it be they're doing this to spite each other =/

"The Interior Minister Thomas de Maiziere told Deutschlandfunk radio he was astonished that militants killed by a drone were identified so swiftly."

It's the result of good intelligence and proves that these bad guys can run but they can't hide.

Perhaps they're doing this because there's a high risk of terrorism. Or is that just too mundane for the conspiracy crowd.

I hope both the UK and France help each other out, because the more Europeans squabble amongst each other, the easier for these Muslim terrorists to attack Europe, right? Where is Bond, James Bond when you really need him!

Okay, name one single apologist here.

Exactly, there are none.

May I suggest reading a book to stimulate cognitive activity?

French engineering firm SPIE

Would you want your firm to be named this while working in a semi-hostile foreign country?

So, to recap.

America warns its citizens about the dangers in Europe.

Then Britain warns its citizens about the dangers in France and Germany.

Germany says nothing, but France warns of the dangers in Britain.

Hmmm... I think jraustralia hits the spot. France is batting in a different ballfield.

So what's the sinister plot behind this one? Maybe France is helping to keep the British in a state of fear to help British elections and the British military-industrial complex? And by doing that the French will somehow benefit from policy or defense contracts?

From what I've learned on JT, a terrorism warning is never a warning, it's just a tool to get people elected or make other people richer. Just tryin' to connect tha dots....

And if someone is killed by a terrorist, it wasn't really the terrorist who did it, and the victims had it coming anyways.

... and it was all set up by Mossad anyway.

The rest of us are looking forward to the rants of the paranoid and intolerant... and once again we are not disappointed.

"And if someone is killed by a terrorist, it wasn't really the terrorist who did it, and the victims had it coming anyways."

The opposite could easily be said for statements that people like yourself tend to make, and WORSE, and no one apologizes for terrorists anyway (we just point out that Islam is not akin to terrorism): the person killed, if of Middle-Eastern appearance in particular, is ALWAYS a terrorist until proven otherwise. Then when not a terrorist you guys cry foul YOURSELVES that the person had it coming, and talk about how all Muslims are terrorists, or you don't need to know anything about Islam 'cause you learned it on 9/11, etc. etc.

Come on, Tim... how about a comment on the article at hand instead of jumping to a comment about Islam and tying all believers to terrorism?

I for one am sick of the current paranoia, and don't think it's any coincidence it comes at a time when the populace is extremely upset at the governments (particularly European nations, which are going bankrupt) for how they've been handling the economy.

To read some of the sillier left wing commentary here is to learn that apparently France recently banned the burqa in public because , well, um, the government wants to signal the populace that they understand their anger about the country edging towards bankruptcy or something. Radical, militant Islam plays no part.
