A group of unarmed US Marines on board a high-speed train between Amsterdam and Paris foiled a terrorist attack after a gunman opened fire with an assault rifle, wounding three people.

The 26-year-old Moroccan national, who was known to security services, came out of the toilet brandishing the gun and opened fire. Fortunately, two US Marines were nearby and overpowered him before he could massacre passengers.

The suspected terrorist had at least nine full magazines of ammunition holding almost 200 rounds. He was also carrying a knife.

Unfortunately, one of the Marines was shot and is believed to be in a critical condition.

Elsewhere in the article it says there were three Marines. I read elsewhere that they heard and recognized the sound of the muzzie loading and chambering the AK while in the john. It could have been much worse. Story is still developing.

Semper fi mother fucker.

Yeah, but it was two unarmed Marines against one armed goat-fucker, so it really wasn't a fair fight.

The gyrenes were tired from their excesses in Amsterdam. There will be a baby boom there in nine months.

And still a dead goat fucker.

Some reports are saying that one of the Marines is in critical condition.

I haven't seen anything on the goat fucker being deceased.

I like what Ace said:

Confirmed: from 1945 to the present day, the best fighting force in France remains a expeditionary party of a Americans.
