The Bataclan attack started with 1,200 rounds of AK fire, followed by a half-hour of deliberate torture

Friday, November 14th, 2025

I recently stumbled across a post on X marking 10 years since the Bataclan massacre, and it ended with some unsettling details:

Victims were castrated, raped, disembowelled and tortured before execution. French authorities suppressed this fact for ‘social cohesion’.

Grok suggests that much of this is documented, but any rapes are unconfirmed:

Yes, the Bataclan theater attack during the November 13, 2015, Paris attacks involved elements of torture and mutilation, according to multiple eyewitness testimonies, official French parliamentary inquiries, and survivor accounts. Rape allegations have been reported but remain more contested, with some claims debunked or unconfirmed by official investigations.

[…]

French Parliamentary Inquiry (2016): A commission led by MP Georges Fenech interviewed over 100 witnesses. The final report (published July 2016) confirmed “acts of torture and barbarism,” including:

Castration and genital mutilation.

Eye gouging.

Evisceration (slitting open abdomens).

These acts were described as deliberate, not just killings via gunfire/explosives. The report noted that some victims’ bodies showed knife wounds inconsistent with mere execution.

The Bataclan attack started with 1,200 rounds of AK fire, followed by a half-hour of deliberate torture.

The Bataclan attack doesn’t get its own Wikipedia entry, by the way. It’s just one of the November 2015 Paris attacks.

I wonder how far French and British government censorship of Islamic terror comes from being infiltrated by same.

Bruce: I wonder how far French and British government censorship of Islamic terror comes from being infiltrated by same.
Bruce: Jim, second-line Red Army troops fought with amazing toughness. Whether they’d have eventually all died without US help is not known. Manstein’s ‘Lost Victories’ recorded some extremely expensive victories. T. Beholder, the Party was always draconic about its spies and dead agents, but there was always some initiative. ‘Comrade Haldane is too busy to go on Vacation’ takes its title from Haldane’s refusal to go to Moscow and be killed.
T. Beholder: Bruce says: So Stalin had multiple sources giving him how-to on nukes. I’d thought it was one dramatic surprise, like in fiction. But it was military surprise, per General Erfurth. Multiple sources, building up a picture. Which fits what we knew about Stalin, especially where intelligence is concerned. Why would he not want maximal redundancy on something as potentially-important as this? The overseas Communist party always felt the US had a plain duty to give all possible military support...
Jim: [I]n May of 1983, he was arrested following a high-speed chase on the Bronx River Parkway in his 1981 DeLorean. He was charged with DUI, reckless driving and leaving the scene of an accident after hitting four cars during the incident (luckily with no injuries). He spent two weeks in a hospital detox unit and was required to attend Alcoholics Anonymous meetings. Boomers lived every fucking aspect of their whole goddamned lives on the IRL equivalent of God Mode.
Jim: If the new Arab ruler of the disputed territory formerly known as New-York is unable to reassign titles of real property or pass window guidance, he cannot suppress his subjects’ costs of living.
Bob Sykes: Evidently, the officers of the prewar US military were of rather high quality, both intellectually and ethically, more-so than today’s. Was that a result of serving in a very small, poorly funded, slow-promotion military? Marshall, King, Eisenhower, Nimitz… Everyone knew everybody One thinks, too, of the unusual (for today) group of regular army officers, many veterans of the Mexican War, that served in the Civil War.
Handle: That last paragraph is very well crafted with perfect tone of dry wit and gentlemanly light comedy. My esteem for Groves grows ever higher.
Bruce: Most well-off middle-class people in 2025 are D patronage hires. They vote for the D candidate who offers the biggest patronage expansion.
Bob Sykes: The median US family income in 2024 was $83,730.
Bob Sykes: The take away is that scientists always lie.
Phileas Frogg: One wonders how many other materials and inventions are floating around just waiting for someone to give them a novel application. Unrelated, but the bacterial/antibiotic arms race is a fascinating little war.
Phileas Frogg: Life has ever loved the sting of living.
McChuck: It’s cool that they can do that, but the main point of fuel cells is to power vehicles. Ceramics aren’t known for their ability to handle potholes.
Jim: The Soviet Union survived Germany’s onslaught only with United State materiel. Then the United State had nukes and the Soviet Union didn’t. It doesn’t take a genius to figure out what should’ve happened next.
Bruce: Jim, after Hitler betrayed the Hitler-Stalin Pact, the Soviets would have been nuts not to prepare for every other alliance ending in an invasion of Russia. Nazi and Communist cooperation went back before Hitler took power. German weapons and tactics were tested on Soviet territory with Soviet aid since the early 1920s. By comparison, the US was a stranger.
Jim: The strangest part of the Second World War is how the United State’s military could’ve simply marched to Moscow in a few weeks, nearly uncontested, and simply chose not to—even without the exclusive possession of atomic weaponry which it, in fact, had. Moreover, for four full years, the United State had absolute military supremacy over the Soviet Union: between 1945 and 1949, the one could’ve nuked the other at its convenience and without credible retaliation. The Great General...
Bruce: Before reading Groves, I thought the decisive gift of nukes to Stalin came from a communist going to Oppenheimer and saying, ‘I’d like a vacation back in New York. You know, visit the Soviet embassy, show them some secret plans’ and Oppenheimer saying ‘Sure! My kid’s babysitter Klaus Fuchs can give you tips!’ And that happened. But Joliot-Curie, Communist party member, was thinking of building an A-bomb in the Sahara with Congo pitchblende before the Manhatten...
Space Nookie: Any future tank will have to be manufactured in mass numbers in factories with contested supply chains, then transported to whatever shithole proxy war is ongoing where the bridges are rated for max 40 tons. It will be knocked out, recovered, and repaired multiple times before it is discarded and stripped for parts.
Alex S.: “Main battle tanks rely primarily upon their speed and long-range firepower” Starts with an outdated assertion. When you can have precision fire of dozens of km by missile, round artillery, drones suddenly the tank finds itself as a short range weapon. Then a falsehood, tank speed?! Land movement is always slow.
Phileas Frogg: Rooster Rocket: “Most amerindian women are NOT attractive. From the “smashed in the face with an iron pan” look of those in the southwest, to the reservation welfare-dependantapotomu ses on the reservations, yikes. Further east amerindians were more attractive, especially where there was more white/indian intermingling. Read some James Lafond for more details.” Too true. The Seneca Nation of Indians are near to my home and an old joke in the area goes: “What did the...
