Good riddance.

It's sounding like one of the masterminds behind Friday's attacks is/was inside the Paris flat whilst the authorities believed he was in Syria, alive or dead. If it's true there are going to be lots of questions about how he was able to get back into France but then he'd only have needed to cross one of the many laxly controlled external borders wouldn't he. Another reason for Schengen to come under close scrutiny, if there was any such need. However he managed it, it does serve to illustrate the fact that the EU's border security leaves a lot to be desired.

Just heard on the Beeb that a Female suicide bomber blew herself up during the raids, a male was shot dead, 3 people arrested in the apartments and a couple taken into custody nearby.
