HOLLANDE: ISIS HAS DECLARED WAR ON US: On 26 July 2016, the president of France, Francoise Hollande, arrived to the scene shortly after the grisly terror attack in Northern France where two terrorists armed with knives broke into a church and took the priests inside hostage. They succeeded in beheading an 84-year-old priest inside before being killed by security forces. ISIS claimed responsibility for the attack. "ISIS has declared war on us," Hollande said at the site. "We must fight this war with all our means." The two attackers in a French church on Tuesday forced an elderly priest to kneel before killing him and also filmed the murder, a nun who escaped the scene said. According to reports, one of the two ISIS knifemen was a convicted terrorist and was meant to be living with his parents with an electronic tag. The tragedy comes just a few weeks after a deadly terror attack in the French city of Nice, in which a jihadist terrorist plowed a truck into a crowd of people, killing more than 80. A state of emergency is still in place after that assault. France has been rocked by a string of Islamist terror attacks of late, and pressure is building on the embattled government of Francois Hollande to take effective action to curb the attacks. (J.
