French Authorities Believe 20 Were Involved In the Paris Attacks



Washington Post: French officials think as many as 20 plotters may be behind Paris attacks

PARIS — European authorities staged an international manhunt Sunday for a 26-year-old “dangerous individual,” one of three brothers involved in the deadly attacks on Paris, even as an image took shape of a larger network of terrorists that could involve as many as 20 plotters.

At least eight assailants in three death squads are thought to have directly carried out Friday’s assault, which is being dubbed France’s “9/11.” Six detonated their suicide belts. Police shot and killed one. French police on Sunday issued an urgent alert and released a photo of an eighth suspect: the 5-foot-7-inch Salah Abdeslam, a Belgian-born French national.

WNU Editor: This number of 20 plotters makes sense, and it supports what Iraqi intelligence was saying a day before the Paris attacks .... Iraq warned of attacks before Paris assault (AP),where they claimed the following ....

.... there were 24 people involved in the operation, they said: 19 attackers and five others in charge of logistics and planning.
