France on Saturday said it will deploy 7,000 soldiers after declaring a top-level alert following the fatal stabbing of a teacher by a Chechen-origin man, who also severely wounded three others at a school.
Seems just a tad excessive…?
It still rubs me wrong that countries deploy their soldiers in the interiour. Securing the public space is foremost reserved for police forces for a specific reason. Placing soldier in the streets creates a dynamic that implies the citizen may be the enemy, which I feel is highly counterproductive and may lead to american circumstances.
I wish he would recruit and deploy 7,000 teachers instead. There are 10 000 towns of more than 1000 inhabitants in France, it would be barely enough
Good. Anti terrorist action.
The guards are deployed because some Islamist (again) murdered a teacher and wounded several others…
And the terrorists supporters are down voting me because they can’t handle the truth, that they are terrorist supporters. And supporting terrorism is bad.
