Being Jewish in France comes with a target on your back. BDS organizers not available for comment.
So it’s highly possible that this cafe was the prime intended target, and the others, a distraction meant to draw the police away /confuse them while the Jewish owned establishment gets attacked.
Paris’ Bataclan Theater was BDS and terrorist target for years
An uncomfortable history for some.
Of all the attacks in Paris yesterday, the attack on the Bataclan Theater was the most devastating.
French authorities said more than 80 people died in the club where California-based band Eagles of Death Metal had been playing for about an hour. When the shooting started after four gunmen entered the front of the 1,500-seat theater, dozens struggled to flee out the back alleyway as shots were being fired.
Gunmen who had entered, dressed all in black and armed with AK-47 rifles, calmly opened fire randomly at patrons who dived for cover on the floor, according to radio reporter Julien Pearce, who was near the stage when the shooting started. “The terrorists were very calm, very determined, and they reloaded three or four times,” Pearce said. “I saw 20 to 25 bodies lying on the floor.”
But why the Bataclan, of all the theaters and gathering places in Paris?
The answer may lie in the fact that it is Jewish-owned, and has been a target for the Boycott, Divestment and Sanctions BDS movement and terrorist threats for years.
