Is there ANY possibility this was a false flag operation?

This discussion thread was locked as off-topic by Rhiannon12866 (a host of the General Discussion forum).

What would make those two empty their pockets and just leave their ID's behind?

On the videos they looked like professional hit men...they got 'clean away' except for their ID's???

The police had their first big break in the case when they discovered that one of the brothers, Saïd, had left his identity card in the first car used by the gunmen, which was found abandoned Wednesday evening after a crash. The police reportedly found Molotov cocktails and jihadist banners in the car as well.

The authorities seemed to catch another break when the men robbed the gas station. The manager of the station said they were wearing masks and waving Kalashnikov assault rifles, like the ones used in the attack on the newspaper office.

http://www.nytimes.com/2015/01/09/world/europe/charlie-hebdo-terrorist-attack.html?_r=0

As has been the pattern for many of these attacks, there is no plan for after the attack is complete. Instead there is panic and flight.

Thu Jan 8, 2015, 11:21 PM
Jan 2015

And that is exactly what doesn't make any sense.

The two guys made sure to wear masks and gloves, etc, they methodically executed a target list of people at that magazine whilst letting other people live, they carried out their attack in a professional manner by covering for each other whilst in a shoot out with the cops, they took the time to make sure they picked up a shoe that had fallen out of their car whilst they were trying to get away,

SO

are we really expected to believe after all that, after they got away from the immediate crime scene, and after they had given themselves breathing room from the authorities, that they left an id card in the car.

Really?


Imagine thinking of every little detail to conceal your identity, and then leaving the most obvious form of identity in the getaway car.

Are we really expected to believe that.

Shit happens. Panic and flight. No plan for after the attack. If they were al qaeda trained they were supposed to stay at the attack until they were dead - no plan for after the attack.

The simplest explanation for the single dropped id in the first get-away car is it fell out while changing clothes while in a state of panic while fleeing from the attack scene: it was a fuck up.

But of course you can invent any other explanation you want.

Please explain the 18 year old accomplice who surrendered.

79. Because the identity is easily discovered, it must be a plot to hide the identity?

It was basically 2 shooters with machineguns vs. unarmed bicycle cops. Not really a fair fight or evidence of anything.

The ID thing is understandable because criminals do stupid stuff like this all of the time. When people are in a frenzy and trying to get away, they tend to forget things - even obvious things like an ID that would get them caught. Not unheard of or extraordinary at all.

Otherwise, honest folks would at least consider it to be a possibility.

likely the moon IS made of cheese?

Your logic is lacking.

If everyone said "don't jump off that cliff as you will get hurt, even if you think you can fly", would that make you MORE LIKELY to believe you could fly? Otherwise honest folks would at least consider it to be a possiblity?

It is specifically meant to be a safeheaven message board for liberals. What you're looking for is discussionist.

I'm sure you wouldn't support a sandyhook conspiracy theory being posted here. I'd bet you would rush to alert on that.

Freedom of speech is for the government.
