In the decade since the Bataclan attacks in Paris, France has averaged nearly one deadly terrorist attack every six months, demonstrating the scale to which radical Islamism has transformed the fabric of the nation.
On November 13th, 2015, a series of coordinated jihadist terror attacks in Paris took the lives of 137 people and injured hundreds more, as suicide bombers struck outside of a football match, gunmen opened fire on cafes and restaurants, and Kalashnikov-wielding men stormed the Bataclan theatre, taking hostages and mowing down concert goers at an Eagles of Death Metal performance.
Since those fatal attacks, France has remained captive to a steady wave of Islamist terror, including just last week when a man shouting the jihadist war cry “Allahu Akbar” rammed a car into pedestrians on the sleepy French island of Oléron, leaving five injured.
According to paper of record Le Figaro, since the 2015 attacks, France has experienced 19 fatal terror attacks. During the same time, nearly 50 more non-fatal terror attacks also took place, while over 80 Islamist terror plots were foiled by police.
…
This week, the head of France’s Directorate General for External Security (DGSE) intelligence agency, Nicolas Lerner, said: “Between 2013 and 2018, terrorist organisations were structured, hierarchical, and centralised. Today, abroad, we are facing fragmented terrorist structures and more isolated individuals carrying out their projects, who are therefore more difficult to detect.
