In the aftermath of France’s biggest terror spree since the mid-1990s, some European leaders are being galvanized to fight back against Islam’s push.
In mid-March, Islamist gunman Mohamed Merah strapped a video camera to his chest and shot a French soldier in what he later said was a protest against France’s foreign military interventions. In the following days, the Frenchman of Algerian origin killed two more French soldiers, and murdered four Jews outside of a school—a teacher and three young children. Merah’s carnage injured six others.
