France24 is reporting that the rally is the most peaceful rally in recorded history in France and that people do not want to leave the Place de la Nation. This may go way into the night. The crowd went WILD with applause when the police helicopters did a pass-in-review over the Place de la nation. In fact, although the rally has officially ended, the crowd continues to grow.
The Jewish community of Paris is just about to start a memorial service, not only for the 4 French Jewish citizens, but for all 17 who died, including the French policeman who was a muslim. Most all of the dignitaries who were at the rally are also at the memorial service. The Service is taking place at the Grand Synagogue of Paris, which was closed on Friday (Shabbat) by the police as a precaution in the wake of the sieges on Friday.
On French TV, I now see a sea of Kippahs!
