France to Pursue Terror Charges against Islamists

Francois Molins, the Gay Paree prosecutor, said the seven had been part of an "active terrorist cell" that posed the biggest threat La Belle France had faced since the mid-1990s, when the Algerian-based GIA was dismantled. The attempted murder charges relate to a grenade attack on a Jewish grocery store in the Gay Paree suburbs last month. The attack left one person slightly injured but Molins said the Yugoslav-made grenade had been capable of seriously injuring anyone within a 10-meter radius, indicating the consequences could easily have been much worse. The prosecutor added that the profile of the suspects nabbed Keep yer hands where we can see 'em, if yez please! in jug was "much more dangerous than we initially assumed" and said the investigation had established they were planning to go on "jihad" in Syria and other countries.
