WE WAKE UP TO ANOTHER ISIS HORROR – AT 9:16 A.M. ET:  An ISIS attack in France, which has been hit repeatedly, has left a priest beheaded and a nun fighting for her life.  From the New York Post: 

Two knife-wielding jihadists broke into a French church during mass Tuesday — brutally murdering a 84-year-old priest by slitting his throat before they were killed by police, according to reports.

Two nuns and two worshipers were in the church in the town of Saint-Etienne-du-Rouvray in Normandy when the men came in through a back door and shouted “Allahu Akbar!” – Arabic for “God is greatest” — and killed Jacques Hamel.

ISIS claimed responsibility for the attack, saying it was carried out by “two soldiers of the Islamic State.”

An elite police unit responded after one of the nuns escaped and called for help, and after an hour-long standoff, cops killed the assailants and freed three hostages.

One hostage suffered life-threatening injuries in the attack on the church, which was one of several houses of worship that appeared in a hit list discovered on an ISIS suspect in April 2015, sources told the Express of the UK.

One of the attackers was a convicted terrorist who had been monitored with an electronic tag and should have been living with his parents, the paper reported.

French President Francois Hollande pointed the finger at ISIS for the “vile terrorist attack,” which shocked a nation already reeling from strikes by ruthless jihadists.

“We must lead this war with all our means,” he said in Saint-Etienne-du-Rouvray.

COMMENT:  I'm sure President Obama is trying hard to determine the "motivation" of the attackers.  Maybe they had to stand in line too long at a department store.  Hmm, that's a good one.

I'd love to see if this latest outrage is even mentioned at the Democratic National Convention.
