Dammartin Siege Ends: Assassins All Dead; Armed Girlfriend Still at Large

Got 'Em All
From Political Clown Parade – The Charlie Hebdo gunmen and their accomplice have been killed by Special Forces as two hostage sieges came to a bloody climax.

“The operation in Dammartin is finished,” said Rocco Contento, spokesman for the Unité S.G.P. police union in Paris. “The two suspects have been killed and the hostage has been freed. The special counterterrorism forces located where the terrorists are and broke down the door. They took them by surprise. It lasted a matter of minutes.”

Amedy Coulibay, suspected of murdering a police officer yesterday, was also killed in a separate hostage situation. He is thought to have been working with his “armed and dangerous” girlfriend Hayat Boumeddiene, whose whereabouts is unknown. Read more at Political Clown Parade.

Canadian, American and British Press Now Instructing French on the Art of Cowardice

Weekly Standard: Don’t be deceived by the reaction to Charlie Hebdo Massacre – our media are cowards.
NY Daily News – Shows photo of dead editor, pixelating Mohammed cartoon but leaving cartoon of hook-nosed Jew. From 2012.  Hat tip: IowaHawk.
Financial Times – Reason.com points out that Financial Times writer blames Charlie Hegbo for being ‘stupid’, causing their own massacre.
World Time – It’s all Islamophobia’s fault. (article about 2011 Hegbo fire)
The Telegraph – We’d rather not talk about it.
CBC – Iowahawk and Jesse Brown tweet about CBC journalistic instructions emphasizing appeasement, claims it’s not fear.
Associated Press – Getting a ‘C’ for effort, the AP today removed photos from it’s image gallery of the “Piss Christ art piece” that they have displayed since 1989, despite protests from Christians that it was extremely offensive to their faith.  Casual observers note that even this pathetic move toward consistency is still a cowardly one, since they still refuse to even display a single Charlie Hegbo image of Mohammed smiling, despite the fact that it is crucial to the reporting and is not offensive by any objective standard imaginable.
