Quotation

Can't be sure on accuracy of the translation of Hollande's speech during the French ceremony: One need only know that Ayoub El Khazzani was in possession of 300 rounds of ammunition and firearms to understand what we narrowly avoided, a tragedy, a massacre...You risked your lives to defend an idea, an idea of liberty, of freedom... Since Friday, the entire world admires your courage, your sangfroid, your spirit of solidarity. This is what allowed you to, with bare hands — your bare hands — to subdue an armed man. This must be an example for all and a source of inspiration... Faced with the evil of terrorism, there is a good, that of humanity. You are the incarnation of that.
