So you have a motive for the actors in Paris.

The takeaway from my remarks above was meant to emphasize that the US has a hand in the disorder in the Middle East - they need to stop supporting a status quo that is inherently unfair. As long as the injustice of the Palestinian lack of a homeland is as it is, there is fuel pouring onto the terrorist passion.

Paris attacks: Weapons found in 'getaway car'

Several Kalashnikovs have been found in an abandoned car believed to have been used by some of the Paris attackers, French judicial sources say.

The black Seat car was found in the eastern Paris suburb of Montreuil on Sunday, suggesting some of the attackers got away.
Earlier, the first of the seven dead attackers was named as Ismail Mostefai. Six people close to him are in custody.

Two attackers lived in the Brussels area, Belgian prosecutors said.

France is in three days of mourning for the 129 people killed in the attacks.

Prime Minister Manuel Valls said most of the bodies had been identified and that the process should be completed in the coming hours.

A special service for the victims, including 350 people wounded and other survivors, is being held at Paris's Notre Dame Cathedral later on Sunday.

Belgian link?
The Seat car found in Montreuil is believed to have been used by gunmen who opened fire on people in restaurants on Friday, police say.

Several AK47 rifles were found in the car, French media quote judicial sources as saying.

This appears to confirm the theory that some of the gunmen managed to flee after the attacks, the BBC's Hugh Schofield reports from Paris.

These men may then have driven north in another car to Belgium, he adds.
