Quote:A Catholic priest was forced to kneel by two men armed with knives before they killed him by slitting his throat.
A nun who witnessed the deadly attack said the killers of 85-year-old Father Jacques Hamel also filmed the murder at the parish church in Normandy and gave a "sermon around the altar in Arabic".
Islamic State claimed two of its "soldiers" carried out the deadly assault.
Not bad for a JV team, eh? smh. /sarcasm
Only a barbarian could do something so appalling as to kill a priest.
But then again, in their eyes, he was nothing but an infidel anyway.
Sad and tragic.

That film footage will be sent back to drum-up the crews at home that the 'Lone Wolf' attacks
are working and the infidel is on his knees.
I would suggest it's time that the West got it's ass in gear.

An update on this tragic incident shows that one of the hostages that was seriously injured
is no longer in a life-threatening condition.
However, the French media are reporting that one of the murderers was well known to the
Police for his verve towards ISIS.
'One of a pair of ISIS knifemen who stormed a church in Normandy before slitting the throat
of an elderly priest has been named as known terror threat Adel Kermiche.
The 19-year-old 'ISIS soldier' was being monitored with an electronic ankle tag after he was
arrested for twice attempting to flee France to join the terror group in Syria.
Despite having been released early from prison, Kermiche's bail conditions allowed him to
roam unsupervised between 8.30am and 12.30pm, leaving him free to murder the priest in
the attack carried out between 9am and 11am.
Kermiche and his accomplice - also known to French police - forced 84-year-old Father Jacques
Hamel to kneel before filming themselves butchering him and performing a 'sermon in Arabic' at
the altar of the church in Saint-Etienne-du-Rouvray, according to witnesses.
Both were shot dead by police marksmen as they emerged from the building shouting 'Allahu Akbar'
following the attack that also left a nun critically injured.
Sister Danielle, a nun who escaped, said: 'They told me "you Christians, you kill us".
They forced him to his knees. He wanted to defend himself. And that's when the tragedy happened.
They recorded themselves. They did a sort of sermon around the altar, in Arabic. It's a horror.'
French President Francois Hollande, who visited the scene on Tuesday, said the country is now 'at war'
with ISIS after the terror group claimed responsibility.'
'The two ISIS killers forced elderly priest Jacques Hamel to his knees before filming
themselves cutting his throat, according to witnesses...'

Okay, that's one "western" head of state now. Do I hear a second? Anyone else ready to step up to the plate?
Anyone?
Someone speak up please, if only to drown out the sound of these crickets...
