In the wake of Thursday's terror attack, French Presidential candidate Marine Le Pen called for France to immediately expel all foreigners on watch lists and reinstate their borders.

Reuters reports Le Pen attacked outgoing Socialist President Francois Hollande as "notoriously feeble," saying: "I only ask one last-ditch effort from him before leaving power: I solemnly ask him to effectively reinstate our borders."

Le Pen said: "Elected president of the Republic, I would immediately, and with no hesitation, carry out the battle plan against Islamist terrorism and against judicial laxity."

"The sympathizers of Islamists should be fought," she said. "For 10 years we have seen this happening."

Le Pen said the release of terrorist Karim Cheurfi by state prosecutors is "the symbol of the failure of politics in this country."
