A Corsican nationalist group has said it will retaliate for any attack by Islamists on the French island. For decades the armed Corsican National Liberation Front (FLNC) carried out bombings and robberies targeting the French state. In 2014 the FLNC declared a ceasefire, but did not disarm. The FLNC warned of a "determined response, without any qualms" for any jihadist attack in Corsica, in a message to the Corse Matin newspaper. Jihadists stormed a church on Tuesday. The two attackers killed an elderly priest, Father Jacques Hamel, and took hostages in the Normandy church, before police shot the pair dead outside. So-called Islamic State (IS) released a video of what it said were the two men pledging allegiance to the group. It is the latest jihadist atrocity to hit France, still traumatised by the Paris attacks last year in which 147 people died. In December protesters in Ajaccio, Corsica, vandalised a Muslim prayer hall and trashed copies of the Koran. The FLNC message - issued by a faction called 22 October - called on Muslim leaders in Corsica to "take a stand against radical Islam" and "alert us to any excesses you notice among disillusioned youths inclined towards extremism". Addressing jihadists, the FLNC said "your medieval philosophy doesn't scare us". It added: "You should know that any attack against our people would trigger a determined response, without any qualms... The Salafists clearly want to establish the Daesh (IS) policy among us, and we're prepared for that." Nine French policemen were killed in 34 years of pro-independence violence led by the FLNC. http://www.bbc.co.uk/news/world-europe-36912541
I was pissing myself laughing at that, reminds me of when I was first getting stoned way back when. Whole production team stoned off their rockers haha, great stuff.
According to Christian conspiracy theorists, there's a Polar Shift due tomorrow, so this'll be the last full day any of us spend on this planet. It's been a pleasure folks. See y'all on the other side.
I've been going to Corsica for many years and will be going again for the month of September, we spent 3 months there a couple of years back. The island has a law of it's own and was, if I'm correct, was the first place to rid themselves of the Germans in WW2, they couldn't get out quick enough. We've travelled all over the island and to many of the remote villages, one of which can only be reached by boat. They're not people to be messed with and strangers, who stick out a mile, are viewed warily. They're great people, and friendly after you break through the shell, but hard as nails.
Yes mate, Bonifacio ........ lovely place in the far south opposite Sardinia. please log in to view this image
My german girlfriend likes to rate my sexual performances on a scale of 1-10. Last night we tried anal. She kept yelling 9. That's the best I've ever done.
This time next week. Horses will have been punched, phone boxes smashed, pitch invasion, 54 banning orders, Rafa oot bedsheets galore, as the Orcs in NE1 realise that the championship will be no walkover, even with their galatico allstars.
Aye mate. Smug hooked me up with them last season. Got a lift back with them after the Everton game. Still not cheaper than the train though so will only use them for night and bank hol games.
We're always happy to collect you on the way up but it's already 3 hours home afterwards and a Darlo diversion is a pain. Afternoon games are OK but you've no chance after a night match mate, it's already gone midnight when we get to bed.
