"The militants attacked the plant Wednesday morning. They crept across the border from Libya, 60 miles (100 kilometers) away, and fell on a pair of buses taking foreign workers to the airport."

More results from US policy in Libya.

...was forced to intervene after a fire broke out in the plant

Did our FBI assist and apply the Waco strategy there?

> the army was forced to intervene after a fire broke out in
> the plant.

Reminds me of what was said by the Russian commander of the Spetsnaz raid that killed most of the family of Beslan planner and Chechen terrorist, Shamil Besayev, “We heard a shot.”

Something tells me that Terrorists might think twice about pulling off hostage situations in Algeria again. The Algerian Army appears not to believe in negotiating even if it means “collatoral damage”.

While negotiations were underway, one of the hostage takers’ demands was release of the Blind Sheik:

Watch you LITTLE you hear of that again, if ever.

This attack occurred because the Libya attack failed in it’s real objective —release of the Blind Sheik, something that the Obama Admin is working towards now.

AND WHY...??

Freakin’ AP cover for that loser Obama again by blaming the Algerian government that ostensibly didn’t negotiate. Of course AP offers no proof, but he takes the heat off of Obama.

Face it America is a 90 pound weakling... just the way Obama likes it. There is NO American leadership. People just kill Americans now because they know Obama is a sissy.
