(Jerusalem Post) Joseph Strich - It is now known that Mohamed Merah, the French terrorist who killed seven people in March including four at a Jewish day school, left his apartment, which had been surrounded by police on March 21, two hours before the final assault. He walked 1 km. to a telephone booth where he called a journalist from the TV channel France 24. Le Parisien newspaper quotes an agent from France's DCRI security agency as saying: "The men in the surveillance position had fallen asleep, and because of that did not see Merah passing in front of them."
