Suspects Armed With Kalashnikovs Take Hostages In French Town Near Belgian Border
Although details are still sparse, Reuters is reporting that there's an unfolding hostage situation in the Northern French town of Roubaix.
According to the information we have now, there are several individuals with gunshot wounds. According to the daily La Voix du Nord newspaper the suspects are armed with Kalashnikovs. Witnesses say the incident occurred at around 7:00pm local time at a gas station.
Officials told Reuters that "an operation is underway after hostages were taken. Gunshots were fired and the neighborhood has been cordoned off. A bank director and his family may have been taken as hostages." Reports now indicate that the incident "is not terror related" as though there's nothing terrifying about being taken hostage by heavily armed gunmen with automatic weapons.

As you can see from the following map, Roubaix is very close to the border with Belgium which initially prompted specualtion that the standoff could be connected to the ongoing search for two unidentified terror suspects as well as the eighth Paris attacker Salah Abdeslam:
Images from the scene:


Belgium has been on heightened alert since Friday and Brussels has been a veritable warzone with police and military units patrolling the city and ransacking Molenbeek in a desperate attempt to head off what's been described as a "serious and imminent" terror threat.
Roubaix is a short drive from Brussels:

I am gonna guess its either a) the Salam guythey've been looking for or b) a dispute over a wine bill
Can't be... they have very strict gun laws.
Use the fucking cheap wine bottles and threaten them to get drunk or soak them with it. It is against their damned sharia law.
Paranoids on Zero Hedge begin to denounce this as an obvious false flag in 5...4...3...2...1...
Everyone has been thoroughly Vetted ...
How can this happen?!
This wouldn't happen if the French people weren't so racist and intolerant.
They need to be more welcoming and giving to these refugees and only then will they stop raping and murdering the French.
Shame on you France.
Does anyone think it's odd that French terrorists seem to always use AKs? Are they honestly the only things available on the European black market?
Let's hope they're available in the Black Market (another soon to be forbidden rayciss term).
Cheap and work well.
(How about the "Marble Market?")
sarc off/sarc on/sarc... shit I forget.
and the good news, hopefully becomes a pattern very soon
“A bank director and his family may have been taken as hostages.”

It's caused by xenophobic white Republicans. Obama says so, and if you can't trust Obama, who can you trust?
Forward (over the cliff)!
Was it Christian extremists? The left keeps trotting out the inquisition and the crusades as evidence that we should always be wary of Christian extremists. I sure hope that one day we will have Christian extremists attack something like they keep warning us about.
It always seems like it is either muzzies or disaffected atheists on SSRI meds that do this sorta shit.
One of my Progressive buds the other day asked me if there were any Fundamentalist Christian people in Iowa (re Trump, Carson and Cruz) or Paris (re Islamic Murderers driven to do it by Christians)
Where the hell did they figure out the handle "Progressive"?
More like retarded.
Carson is very popular with the farm folk out in the country. Saw lots of signs for him.
FORWARD SOVIET!
christian extremists are always looking for WMDs.....when they are the ones that have them all..and have used them. Oh yeah, and ripped nations to shreds in order to fight for peace.
Check with planned parenthood
Exactly the point, the citizens are unarmed...
Bullish for the S&P
or
c) completely fabricated horse-shit, as usual
RELIGION OF PIECES?
RELIGION OF PEACE?
could be BLM protesters
Every such incident will be used by the TPTB to take away your remaining freedoms. Not that there are many left in the Orwellian-named free world.
Did you ever think you had any freedom since the Fed was created?
Something big is about to happen which will mean that the police need the power to restrict your freedoms further.
All is a cover for the doomed collapse.
This in particular may have been done to take attention away from Nato and Nato sponsored terrorists from shooting down a Russian fighter jet and helicopter.
Push that story down the news feed folks, a couple of terrorists are in Europe creating justification for further erosion of individual rights and national sovereignty!
Thats the plan.

justobserving....just dont pay your taxes and you will see how many freedoms you have had (thought you had...)
Can Europe *actually* start fighting back now?
Who are you going to fight against?
Best place to start would be by removing the current crop of traitors in power. Second step would be to take off the gloves when it comes to fighting the Muslims. Had Europe a government that actually wanted the European people to survive, it wouldn't be a question of who to fight.

WTF is messing with France about?
Too small of dicks to mess with the Big Boys again?
It's all about getting the French people all riled up so they will support this notion of a war against, eventually against Russia. Expect to see faux terrorism in most countries over there. Probably even in Australia, England and Canada. It's all been done a million times before... mostly by 'our side'. And it never ceases to amaze how the people fall for it. Gladly, the population of the world is gradually learning how all this shit works though. False flag after false flag after false flag. One of these days the people at the very top who are responsible for writing these scripts are going to pay the piper. I suspect that will be the case when this sad episode in humanity's timeline is nearing it's completion. And it will be a grand world once that happens.
It also wouldn't surprise me to see Sunni Extremist Terrorism among the Uighurs in China's Xinjiang Province. You know, with them shooting each other's dicks off and general unpleasantness (non-sexual and secular, hopefully).
Remember reading there is a high concentration of ME immigrants in northern France because they want to get to England where there is more free shit than any place on the planet. Seriously, they get a bed, and a paycheck right from the get-go in jolly old England.
GO NATO. Gotta support your ISIS partners
Obvious distraction from the Turkey shoot.
So close to Thanksgiving...
But Obama and his admin are supporting ISIS.
Just supplied them with $500 million in equipment, including missiles.
If your population is so rich and you don't have anything else to spend your money on, why not give your money to some kids who are missunderstood?
And if those kids fight for the cause that is dear to the presidents personal beliefs, it only makes sense.
The French need to put up more gun free zone signs.
More free gun zones would work better, but ya know that ain't gonna happen.
The down votes tell me someone doesn't understand the difference between a 'free gun zone' and a 'gun free zone'.
Ain't that the truth.
Fuck the French...US poodles...
It was a Belgian ("white") woman who was firing her concealed weapon ("illegal firearm") at the dozen would-be islamic ("refugee") rapists.
I know this is a pure fantasy, but that's what dreams are made of.
This just in:
"All of Europe in hostage situation stemming from building in Belgium."
Hmmm... only a 30 minute drive from my home :)
I feel a case of disaster tourisme comming up :)
and a quick drive to the Anne Frank museum, you can pretty much name your price
disaster tourisme = sudden debt
Don't you dare say Muslim.
They love you.
Will help from Turkey no less....
Mayhem like this is just another Saturday night on the southside of Chicongo.
Reuters is reporting that there's an unfolding hostage situation in the Northern French town of Roubaix.
Roubaix? Is that anywhere near Remulak?
Goodbye, Roubaix Tuesday.
Who cares, the S&P and DOW are green. Move on.
Obama's home town, Chicago, has stuff like this all the time.
Wow, the French really dropped the ball on this one.
They should really have more laws against terrorism.
And Kalashnikovs.
And laws against NWO and Zionists and CIA and Bilderbergs and...false flags!
Maybe bombing Syria some more will help cool things over.
Full steam ahead, France and co!
Hollande: "We despise these terrorists animals. But we support NATO countries shooting down any warplanes that would threaten them."
Given the incessant droning on about oil prices never rising again on CNBC and its illegitimate child Yahoo Finance, I expect a group of these heathens to take down something significant in terms of oil production (Saudi?) soon. CNBC doesn't go on these propaganda sprees all on their own: they are being fed the "oil is never going to rise in our lifetimes" prop by someone who is going to profit massively...
Operation gladio ISIS edition at full swing here
Salah Abdeslam has the number one qualification for being an high-up ISIS officer. Being declared dead multiple times in the same week, yet still keep popping up.
We didn't start the fire.but the world is burnin..

Why is the term "kalishnakov" getting thrown around so much lately? Is this an anti-russian psyop? Seems odd that they're specifically using this obviously Russian sounding term so frequently. Why not say "machine guns" or "assault weapons"? They're specifically saying "Kalishnakov" constantly.
The word Kalashnikov is not in the story anywhere, it is in the headline written by Tyler. I don't think you can accuse Tyler of being anti-Russian.
Dude, unless Tyler is lyig it says that the Belgian newpaper mentioned Kalishnakovs.
My bad I apologize
TD could have just said AK-47 in the title.
Sexier than saying AK-47. One reporter probably mentioned it, then the rest of the lemming media followed suit.
Kalashnikovs -
Ever since the Paris attack Kalashnikov, Kalashnikov, Kalashnikov -
What the fuck? I wonder if 1/2 of these reporters even know what a Kalashnikov is?
I have a theory - it is just fun to say Kalashnikovs.
Try this and see if it doesn't put a smile on your face.
Say - out loud & as fast as you can.
Kalashnikovs, Kalashnikovs, Kalashnikovs, Kalashnikovs, Kalashnikovs, Kalashnikovs, Kalashnikovs,Kalashnikovs, Kalashnikovs, Kalashnikovs!
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=wrSpZpycy-c
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=KtX-V4OE50Y
they should say Russian made weapons.
I don't think these "reporters" could tell the difference between a 38 Special and a "Kalashnikov".
Just use the handy, dandy ID chart...
Russian ballet dancer?
Hollade sure knows how to enrich a French people.
"Hostage situation reported in town of Roubaix near Belgium; children among hostages, injuries reported.."
You knew they had to escalate things to keep the Thanksgiving chatter within the US/France is fighting the great evil meme... so now children are involved. Expect something effing horrific and unlike the babies in incubators incident this is probably real.
Remember how long they hesitated to break in during the last hostage deal? If they're too scared to do thier job this time maybe they should step out of the way and let some citizens who are willing to risk themselves give it a try.
Amazing. The article refers to a "bank director" as a potential hostage, and not a single post about banks or bankers.
Just goes to show how easy it is to whip people into a frenzy. "Alternative media" indeed.
Your allwrong. This is Russia sending out a team to distract you while they arm and fuel up thier entire fleet of TU95 and TU160 aircraft to obliterate Turkey. Sleep tite,don't let the bed bugs bite and be sure to sanr windows. We gonna shake rattle and roll (we can't use shock and awe) you in da mornin.
Impossible, guns are illegal in France, especially 'assault' style weapons...
So, they don't know anything - except that it is not terrorism.
The reflex to protect Islam is so strong in this group that their fate is sealed.
You know it's bad when a French socialist is the tallest midget.
So apparently you're quite the philatelist? That means "stamp collector." Because "John Gault" invented a way to use postage stamps as coins during the American Civil War.
"John Galt" is the name of the main character in that God-Awful Ayn Rand book people won't stop bleating about; the one about the childish fantasy that everybody will be really sorry if the kid runs away.
Hmm, if that "kid" is the only one paying for your retirement, I'm thinking you truly will be sorry!
Just yesterday I read a comment here that ISIS was decamping Syria and "moving to downtown Western Europe."
In hindsight, it wasn't hard to figure out.
How else can you get to 1984 from 2015 without a trembling population?
This isn't news, this is the New Normal for Islamic Europe. France, with over 2000 mosque is now an Islamic nation, the Sand Niggers just haven't delcared a formal Caliphate yet - so I guess France can go bomb some more sand- or pound sand up it's a**.
And I bet none are from Syria and none are refugees.
C'mon guys:

Did any of the media look to see if these are Russian or American made Kalashnikoves?
I am so glad I am not flying this holiday.
Who would a thought the proverbial black swan would turn out to be a thanksgiving .....Turkey?
Now, we have France,Mali,and this,and finally someone is using REAL Assault rifles.
Bet your sweet arse they are not semi autos only.
Just don't waterboard them.
Gunman was probably upset over a sore ass from the bumps in the road.
chaos which is the tool of the Frankfurt school.
They have used it everywhere, because it works.

I was in Charleroi, BE the night Princess Diana was murdered in 1997. I spent two weeks playing drums at the Chesterfield Cafe in Moscow, RU in 1997.
The last time I was in Belgium was in 2007 performing at the drums with a Dutch / English Blues band.
How many of you have ever been out of the country? How about Finland? Or Rio?
Maybe if more people understood, that people all over the world are the same anywhere any time.
Talk about having ones head in the sand.
Think.
Gun laws are working. This article is proof negative!!
Joooos, always the Joooos.
