What I find interesting is that French authorities knew exactly where to go in four days, which suggests to me they have been sitting on information about what these people have been planning since well before the attacks.
Odd coincidence, isn't it?
There is one constant in these planned terror operations: they spend a lot of time observing and trying to assess patterns of life / patterns of response, etc.
Then they try to identify the vulnerabilities and gameplan how to exploit them.
It's very common for them to try and co-opt trusted objects to increase the effects, such as putting on first responder uniforms, or decoy vehicles that look like ambulances, etc. In general, assets (people, money, materiel) are limited for them so they expend great effort to maximize effects by shaping the battlefield.
It's fairly simple: they study the normal patterns of life, and determine how to get inside the OODA loop. You defeat them by being impenetrable or getting inside their OODA loop, or both. Neither is accomplished to a great degree by the way we currently do business. Most worrisome is that the current environment is so permissive that they may be able to get weapons systems that are so devastating that they don't need to shape the battlefield as much to attain dramatic effect. That's going to make things more difficult for us.

I've been looking for a source to the tweet. As of now, it's only gone as far as a Fox News anchor from Twitter from what I can find but I can't read the French stuff.

200 police uniforms found in the south of France in a raid, along with rocket launchers and rifles
That's disturbing.

A rocket launcher was said to have been found in the initial raids by numerous sources, the 200 uniforms on the other hand...

200 unis points to something more large scale than just a handful of wackos.

Attacker count is up to 9. So two handfuls.

They really should have gone with martial law. I'm not sure Marshall knows what to do.
Shows what you know. The term was coined by Justice Thurgood Marshall, and the men that are put in power are the local Marshalls, and that's why they call it Marshall Law pointdexter.

Can't tell if serious... But...

Well we sure as hell know that conservatives don't read them unless it is the Bible. So this is usually the case.

I foresee suicide bombers exploding in American malls this Christmas season. Black Friday would make a lot of sense if they are looking for a target rich environment.

Good Lord I hope not. Sadly, it's not unthinkable though.

It's well known that Lincoln was a terrible speller.

I like the spirit of this post, but, unfortunately:
1) it is spelled "marshal"; and
2) the military is put in charge when martial law is declared, not local marshals.
