    "Well sheer panic tends to cloud judgement and all rational thinking for most people I imagine in situations like this." It is due to training. The French guy who first try was injured as he try to protect his family. The US soldiers had training and time to think. They were able to see a jammed weapon, so they took the right decision.

    It is NOT down to training... Removed

    That's why the army test so hard, to separate the cattle from the gold.


    Brenus claimed he has been to 3 wars, but the first time questioned about it then back stepped and explained he wasn't in arms. He was, like, just there... Humanitarian, you know?

    Do not hound for personal information.

    Also, you still haven't mastered the quote function that has been around since the internet was borne.

    "This comes from a guy who proclaimed he has been to 3 wars, but the first time questioned about it then back stepped and explained he wasn't in arms. He was, like, just there... Humanitarian, you know?" Yeap. And? I never step back. You see, I was a professional soldier during 5 years, that give me the hint about training. I went in 3 war, which give a good view how brutal the thing is.
    How do you thing I've got injured? In sitting behind my keyboard? I was not just there. I volunteer to go to help refugees to survive winter and war, when the "armed" soldiers were just sitting in their bunkers.
    You really think I din't see you coming? Poor, poor. poor old Kadagar... Your world is so narrow... I was hoping to be wrong, to be fair. But no, you are who/what you look to be...
    Now, tell me in what my 3 wars differ from what you consider a normal way to do to war? Well, except the fact I was unarmed... Are the bullets different? Or the bombs, perhaps? Or to go in valley that could be a death trap?
    "Also, you still haven't mastered the quote function that has been around since the internet was borne." As your previous intervention, irrelevant, a diversion...

    If you have the experience you claim, I am sorry for questioning it, removed

    If indeed your experience is true you have plenty of more chances to redeem your reputation, even on a anonymous board... So don't take it to harsh :) But he doesn't have to post IRL information to do this nor should he have to.

    If France is so bad, why do all these American heroes want to go there by train?

    "Is it true what you say? Might be, might not" If you are telling I am a liar, do tell. Then, I will ask for full apologies, as of course, I am not. And of course, I have all what I need to prove it.
    A little bit of reading and the pictures I posted in the past would save you from humiliation...

    "The fact you crumbled when questioned?" Huh? When? You ask the 3 wars I went in, I told you. Then, as your world is narrow, you assume it was as soldier which I corrected. You still didn't tell what difference it would made as war experience to be a humanitarian, but didn't expect that much.
    I am proud to have been in Humanitarian help. It is not lesser than to be soldier. As I said I was both.

    So to summary:
    You are telling that I am a liar for:
    - Having being a professional Soldier: Yes-No. If you tick yes, I will post pictures and I will demand full apologies.
    - I went in 3 wars: Yes-No. If you tick yes, I will post pictures,and I will demand full apologies
    - I was injured in a war: Yes-No. If you tick yes, you know what will happened.

    Are you doing it?

    "Sorry mate, but you can not claim things around issues close to my heart, and then fold first time you are called." Chiche? In French in the text. Do it. If you dare. You are good in insults, I want to see if you are good in apologies. Come on...

    "Sorry mate, that first Frenchman was an American to. Put that in your pipe and do something with it, mate"

    Wrong again, I am sorry, but you start to know the feeling
    " According to French President Francois Hollande, a Frenchman was the first to encounter the gunman as he left the toilet, alerting others in the area. That person, Hollande said, wished to remain anonymous." Sorry. Not really, but...

    Are you sure they want to go THERE rather than go THROUGH THERE?

    According to what I've been taught all those 1,5 years on these boards, the evidence from a person "emotionally invested" in the discussed topic is not the one to be trusted. It may turn out (self)propaganda, even if it is a video or a picture (both of which can be workmanlike fakes).

    Although, if you manage to provide evidence from several reliable news agencies (the limited list includes BBC, Reuters and AlJazeera) the public here may reconsider the verdict of initial distrust.

    Uh-oh. No, no, NO. All statements by western (as well as Ukrainian) officials are self-advertizing propaganda. Let me quote yourself:

    Bla bla bla bla. From Ukrainianationalist.com, I suppose, or equivalent (Ukr.gov.propaganda.com?).

    So you evidently have taken your information from FrenchmenAreAValiantNation.com or Fr.gov.propaganda.com.

    As for the superior culture, you are probably more likely to get shoty by a cop in the US over a broken tail light (or to get shot at all in the US) than you are to get shot by a jihadist in France, but don't let that get into the way of an awesome argument over how much worse French culture is.

    Seem to mainly be because of behavioral issues...

    Perhaps their destination was Barcelona, and they just changed trains in Paris.

    The first person was the anonymous Frenchman, but we don't know wether he was injured or not. The guy who got wounded trying to protect his wife was a French-American teacher.

    "Anonymous" sounds more like a Greek name. So the full one might have been Anonymous Anynomakidis. Certainly NOT French.
