WHEREAS, the worst terrorist assault to occur in France in more than 50 years was a three-day killing spree by radical Islamists in Paris that began on Wednesday, January 7, 2015, resulting in a massacre at the satirical magazine Charlie Hebdo, followed by a deadly hostage situation in a Jewish supermarket that Friday; and
