It was not immediately clear how the shipment was destroyed or how many people were captured.Obviously something more effective than a drone strike.

Having a Foreign Legion can really come in handy.

Obama is going to be pissed. His troops were counting on that shipment!

At least Hollande is good for something.

The Legion has always been tough, but the political will to turn them loose has been lacking. Let’s hope they have a green light now.

“The intervention enabled a large quantity of weapons to be seized and to neutralise a number of those in the convoy, including some who were captured,”
I s’pose “neutralize” means extinguished, or the like, but they screwed up BIG TIME by capturing “some”. Islamists like to die. It’s always a good day to die for them, and actually the best thing for non Islamists everywhere when they do.

Since France appears committed to killing these savages unlike
Obama, maybe they should be bombing the terrorists attacking Kobani and elsewhere.
To: the scotsman
There is no way of translating “rules of engagement” into French. Say what you want but the French can be some real nasty people.

I find it strange people think the French are wimps. They surrendered quickly to Germany in WWII, but formed the underground resistance and did all they could to sabotage and undermine the Nazi regime like no other. Hiding artwork, killing any Nazi they could, internal sabotage, then after, they viciously retaliated against anyone who had collaborated.
