Massacre in Paris kills hundreds of people

Sickening things are happening around the world and this time it was Paris that underwent a series of devastating incidents.

With the weekend beginning yesterday in Paris and the Parisians as well as the tourists starting to get into the weekend mode, nobody would have anticipated such horror to unravel within the next few hours.

A shooting rampage in six different sites in Paris, including a concert hall and a soccer match killed over 150 people yesterday.

According to Gulf Times, four gunmen had killed hundreds of people attending a rock concert and at the same time many others were killed at a double suicide bombing outside the national stadium.

Also, at least 11 died at a bomb blast outside a Cambodian restaurant in Paris.

The attack which has left the whole world in shock is the biggest blood bath France has seen after the World War II.

Also, the BBC News further mentioned that the French Police believe that all the gunmen have been killed, some of them being suicide bombers. However, they remain unsure if any accomplices are still on the run.

All Parisians have been warned to remain indoors at their homes and around 1,500 military officials have been deployed across the city.

Also, in the midst of this confusion, French media reported that taxi and cab drivers are turning off their meters and driving people to safety or to their homes free of charge.

Furthermore, Parisians have launched the hashtag #Porteouverte, which translates into “open door”, to offer shelter and safety to those stranded in the streets.

While France and the rest of the world are reeling from shock, let us all pray for the safety of all the people of France and the rest of the world.

What it really shows is that governments are unable to protect their people. So, why do we need a government?

All comments are noted but one thing we should note is that France did not have any bad intentions towards anyone otherwise they would not have accepted any Refugees which include Syrians (Some of which are Agent of Isis) which has now turn to their nightmare. All i can say is that they should tighten more of their security and conduct, check the database of those that they allowed in and screen them properly to end this form of massacre and we all should pray more for Gods Protection for them. If Americans has taken in Refugees to enter the country, am sure they would have faced similar problems. God help us all.

The Quran says "if anyone slays a person, it would be as if he slew the whole people: and if any one saved a life, it would be as if he saved the life of the whole people.”

What happens if Muslims kill Muslims ? Those murdered in Paris were not all non Muslims

A message to the World:

If you kill 1 innocent person, you will generate 4 terrorists to take revenge namely..His father, Mother, Sister, Brother.

If you kill 1 innocent muslim, you will generate a Millions and Billions of terrorists to take revenge namely.......His father, Mother, Sisters, Brothers. All the remaining Muslims in the world are his brothers and Sisters.

Stop terrorism...The need of this time is Peace.

Please note any attrocity or injustice committed to an innocent will turn him into criminal.

I strongly condemn these types of ruthless killings and that too in the name of Islam! Islam & Prophet (May peace upon him) never preaches to kill any innocent peoples. These criminals (both ISIS and their Sponsors) should be punished as per Islamic law.

Deeply saddened! Condolences to all the affected individuals & families..

I do hope France will not use the blood of these innocent people as a pretext to invade Syria in pursuit of ISIL and kill many more hundreds just to grap the natural resources. Rather those who are funding ISIL shall be held accountable.

I actually agree with gladiator to some extent. People die in Syria, Afghanistan, and other countries on a daily basis. Nobody cares, obviously. And many of them are also innocent. As long as the West produces and sells weapons this vicious circle will never end. But it means money!

Because these were innocents who had nothing to do with the proxy wars of the Middle East

this is not the point here blitzerbel but my question is why when people die in Syria it's normal or in Iraq or in Palestine ? is it because they are Muslim ?! because the number of innocent people who died with terrorist attack through history is not even 0.1% of people died because of America Russia Israel and other European nation and yet the 0.1% is what concerns the people how would u explain that ?!

An eye for an eye will only make the whole world blind.

this terrible cowardly attack is no different from the attack on Syria by Russia which is killing hundreds of innocent people every single day or the attack on Iraq by America which killed million people or the Attack by Israel on Palestinians everyday with killing innocent people the only difference that America Russia and Israel are powerful countries that no one can stop them or blame them

Holland announced that ISIS is behind the attack because of France's involvement in Syria. So the West should just sit and watch how the Arabs kill each other? I guess, this would be the ultimate solution then.
