Edit; Not true thankfully...
It is certainly true that the border control in Greece is not the same as that in the UK, and as such, getting weapons and terrorists inside of those border countries is easier. And once you are in one schengen area country you have access to them all.
Real shit position France are in currently, they are on the highest alert level possible and seem to be being targeted a lot more than other western countries, and don't seem to be able to stop them.
Higher profile than other eu schengen countries.
They have seen from experience that attacks in France are grabbing the whole worlds attention, so why stop when it is working for them.
Lots of high density soft target areas.
Plus the anti Muslim/religion attitude France has doesn't help (banning the buhrka etc).
I'm going to Paris next week so I'm expecting heavy security. No way I'm not going though, that would be giving these evil bastards what they want.

So if the cunt had have got his was there would have been even more killing, and this potentially could have been a lot worse than it was.
Not that that should take away from the massive severity of this attack.
France gets targeted because:
- it's easier to get into than USA or UK. France is the next prime target in the West.
- France has participated in the bombings in Syria and Libya.
- France is the country that most represents modern democracy and liberalism, which are ideologies and values of the Western and Christian world.
- Paris is a huge cultural capital of Western modern civilisation.
- there's large Muslim populations in France/Belgium, so a higher chance of native Islamic inspired radicalised extremists
- France and continental Europe probably has inferior intelligence to UK and USA, so not as good at stopping Jihadi cells and plots.

and I think that as ISIS starts to fall apart and loses more and more ground in Syria and Iraq, it'll resort more and more to this sort of thing..
State of emergency being extended a further 3 months.
10,000 troops being mobilised in France along with reserve forces being used.
This is just awful
