A nation must think before it acts.
On the streets of Paris, police are breathing a sigh of relief.
The two-year anniversary of the Nice terrorist attack, when a man associated with the Islamic State killed 86 people and injured 434 by driving a truck into large crowds watching Bastille Day fireworks, passed without incident. This despite massive parades and public gatherings across France, in honor of last weekend’s national holiday and the French soccer team’s World Cup win.
