Comparing France and Germany domestic responses to terrorism

Last weeks terrorist attacks both in France and German soil underscores very different social responses.
French citizens and politicians seems more ready to face failure than germans, more ready to jump straight to the scene - no matter what.
Merkel and other major politicians, instead, during the Munich "siege" let the role to the local police, censured all information and lead to an exagerated reaction to a minor event if compared to France latest attacks, as Nice and Paris.
Germans histerical reaction  rather than placing human life first, may be considered a spontaneous social reaction, displaying essential features of german culture.
