March In Paris

[xstitcher]

Good morning all,
I hope the March in Paris goes well today. It's to be shown live on TV here. I imagine many more millions will be with them in heart and I hope it gives some comfort to the loved ones of the victims and a feeling of strength to the enemies of terrorism.

Reports say that over 700,000 turned out for the march.

I hope the thugs realise that their tactics will never work.

I'm sure the security forces aren't looking forward to today but the show of solidarity is a must.

[jd_1984]

Absolutely the best response to these terrorists by a brave city.
Will the terrorists give up, No. Will they realise that their actions have only unified and strengthened - I Hope so!!

The BBC are worried about the far right hi-jacking the march, apparently.

Hope it goes off safely - what with that loon of a woman on the loose and others...there was an article in the DT yesterday about the pressure les Juifs are coming under in France, from both Le Pen's stormtroopers as well as the Muslims, the emigration rate to mainly here and Israel increasing rapidly.

Egalité, Liberté and Fraternité could do with a boost.

Svejk I heard on my news programme that the le Penn people aren't joining the March but doing their marches in the provinces and the South of France. What a time NOT to show solidarity.

Mine too Maydup. I'd love to be there.

[xstitcher]

I've sent Steven's article on to likeminded friends Maydup. He said it all so well.

Xstitcher......thank you for posting this....and Maydup for the link.....no-one could have put my feelings better than Stephen Fry has.

Paris is where my heart will be today........♣

[Maydup]

There are 40 world leaders gathered to attend this rally which is due off soon. Live on the BBC news channel and others no doubt.

I'm watching, Maydup.....and a little sad that the murderers didn't live just long enough to see what their actions have actually brought about....x

[xstitcher]

I'm watching it too. On a news programme I was watching this morning, it was pointed out that instead of about 60,000 people reading Charlie and seeing the Mohammed cartoons, now due to their criminal actions millions would see, again and again exactly what they were wanting to get rid of. Good point I thought.

Very good point, they will have to reprint and reprint no doubt.

The sight of these leaders at the march, walking arm in arm, is a wonder to behold.
