I wish he would recruit and deploy 7,000 teachers instead. There are 10 000 towns of more than 1000 inhabitants in France, it would be barely enough

And they cannot do both?

Well obviously not

Well, obviously, they can, but do you know where one might find 10 000 available French teachers? It takes time. The urgency of a terrorist threat is different.
