[...] Reuters. quoting an un-named official at Paris City Hall, says the current death toll in Paris is around 140.
According to the Paris prosecutor, of the four assailants who died during the sidge at the Bataclan, three committed suicide by detonating explosive vests. The prosecutor has warned that some of their accomplices may "still be on the loose".
[...] Here is what French president François Hollande told reporters outside the Bataclan concert hall just now: "To all those who have seen these awful things, I want to say we are going to lead a war which will be pitiless. Because when terrorists are capable of committing such atrocities they must be certain that they are facing a determined France, a united France, a France that is together and does not let itself be moved, even if today we express infinite sorrow."

> kill them wherever you find them
Are all your quotes as out-of-context as this one? (The clue was in that you left the lower case letter at the start of the quote, or end with a period, so weren't even quoting a complete sentence. You need to fix that if you want to get away with it in the future.)
2:190 Fight in the way of God those who fight you but do not transgress. Indeed. God does not like transgressors.
2:191 And kill them wherever you find them and expel them from wherever they have expelled you, and fitnah [Persecution] is worse than killing. And do not fight them at al-Masjid al- Haram until they fight you there. But if they fight you, then kill them. Such is the recompense of the disbelievers.
2:192 And if they cease, then indeed, God is Forgiving and Merciful.
So that part you quoted was conditional on them already having started a war with you on your own territory. Which I guess you can say has already happened. Thanks Americans.

I see some low numbers there. I'm pretty sure that's the bit that was superseded.

Are you saying the quran is written in chronological order?
Lol. So cute. Such an expert on why Islam is evil and you don't even know the most basic mechanical facts about the religion.
