French President Francois Hollande addressing French parliament is response to Paris terrorist attacks.

As of Friday we're all well aware of the terrorist attacks in Paris. There is no need to recapitulate the horror that took place except to offer belated condolences for those who were unfortunate enough to be in the wrong place at the wrong time as well as for the survivors who will have to live with the memory.

But as in all these acts of terrorism which occur in the present era, the "factual" details are not substantiated with indisputable evidence while the rest of the remain highly suspect. All the alleged attackers are dead except for one Abdelhamid Abaaoud, a Belgian citizen who French "officials" named as the mastermind behind the attacks. He's apparently at large in Syria.

How do we know it was Abaaoud being the "architect" of the attacks? Well French "officials" pointed to his fighting with the IS in Syria and him supposedly telling a French citizen-not disclosed- who returned from Syria he wanted to attack "a concert hall". That's it case closed. The MSM takes the "official" government version as gospel and spouts it out as fact.

As to the highly suspect details, when a Syrian passport of one of the alleged attackers, who blew himself up, is miraculously discovered in pristine condition, and this "proves" it was IS terrorists from Syria, alarm bells start ringing.

In the meantime French President Francois Hollande addressed a joint session of Parliament yesterday declaring, "France is at war". He'd already sent French planes to bomb the IS stronghold of Raqqa in Syria and dispatched his lone aircraft carrier, the Charles de Gaulle to sail to the Persian Gulf.

At least in his overreaction Hollande didn't ask NATO to dispatch ground forces to invade Syria in response to the Paris attacks.

As for the attacks whether they were purely a jihadi retaliation against French planes previously bombing IS positions in Syria or a more sinister false flag operation, organized and trained by the CIA with special ops or mercenary proxies part of the attack who subsequently melted away during the ensuing melee is irrelevant at this point. Why?

The overreaction by Hollande, the fear escalated in the population, the accused, all the alleged attackers presumed to be Muslim Jihadis, is sending a reactionary chill across Europe and then compounded with the refugee surge is exacerbating the situation.

The next terrorist attack, purely Jihadi or a false flag operation in France, Britain, Germany could very well induce NATO to act and send ground troops into Syria thereby setting up the potential confrontation with Russian forces operating in support of President Bashar Assad's regime.

That may very well be the neo-con game plan for regime change in Syria.

With the Russian's flying sorties in close military intelligence coordination with Assad's Syrian Arab army, Iranian, Iraqi and Hezbollah forces fully engaged fighting terrorists-many if not most trained, supplied and financially backed by the CIA, Saudi Arabia, housed in Turkey and Jordan-a NATO ground force intervention in Syria would pit the US against Russia, risking the unthinkable.

That's the critical, undisclosed factor not reported by the MSM as it relates to the Paris attacks.

There's no other way to put it, madness reigns in the West caused by its own doing.
