Sooner or later, we will have to come to the realization that terrorism cannot be eliminated by force. Stop destabilizing Arab countries, stop imperial interference in Northern Africa, and perhaps we'll see an end to this nonsense.
I agree that an overreaction is likely, though considering how crazy the latest security law are, I don't see how much worse it can get in this regard.
Ok. So if it indeed can be attributed to them, or if they go out and admit, then fine, send in the tanks - the Paris attack would be an act of war.

Oh it can. We have a long way to go from what we have now to what was in USSR or Nazi Germany. I just hope we don't decide to run the distance.
What worries me more is that the overrection will be aimed at immigrants and minorities who live in Europe. There already are reports of this beginning to happen.
They claimed responsibility. As for sending in the tanks, I don't see that happening.

Yeah, but neither were democracies. The Red Scare-era US would be a better example. I really hope it doesn't go this way.

Probably not from the government, but who knows what the population will do?
