#3 On the plus side, the French police have a good reputation for coming down on terrorists hard.

Not too long ago, they had a special anti-terrorism judge, an "investigating magistrate", Jean-Louis Bruguière, who with his team of police had arrested some 500 terrorist suspects, and they were very scared of him.

The French investigating magistrates are renowned for their power and ruthlessness, and trace their origins all the way back to the amazing Joseph Fouché, who even intimidated Napoleon.

It was said that while Napoleon was an emperor, he craved the absolute power of his chief of police.

The gun used in a school massacre that has rocked France was the same used in the murders of three soldiers last week, a police source has said.
The powerful motorbike that the gunman used to make his escape in all three incidents was also the same, a stolen Yamaha 500CC T-MAX, police said.
