Seems the CIA or MI6 is at it again. These killing are too well orchestrated, and professional to be dumassed terrorists from a country full of nothing but dirt. Where the training could not possibly be as good, or in this case better, than our own elite.
Isis and Al Qaeda are hardly "dumb" or untrained.
I kind of thought that was IlluminatiTechnician's point -- what capable power is supporting, funding, arming, and training ISIS?

Ya that is what they guys in the theater said...
Did any of the sources you read give a physical description of them?
Young guy with a gun and explosives patrolling inside the theater...no mention of nationality.

Reuters is now reporting that its own reporter has been told that the operation at the Bataclan has now ended.
...
More details on the ending of that operation at the Bataclan:
The AP is now citing two Paris police officials as saying that security forces have ended their assault on the Bataclan, killing at least two attackers. Neither official could be named, citing ongoing operations throughout the city.
One official described “carnage” inside the building, saying the attackers had tossed explosives at the hostages. Both officials said they expected the toll of victims to rise.

He said MI6 or the CIA were "at it again."
IS members could have training from Muslims who were in the Russian army; former Iraqi military Sunnis, people trained by the west as moderates, people from other ME nation's military.
Lots of possibilities besides western intelligence agencies directing this.

For the Americans, my agency just let us know that there will be heightened security at local sports events and some community events. Mostly low profile, plainclothes type stuff but, there will be a presence. As of right now we don't have any specific, credible threat though.
read that as I await my son's arrival so we can head off to the knicks cavs game.
