Frenchies say Karachi bombing was directed at them
2002-05-11
"Al Qaeda has set its sight on France," in any case that's become the firm conviction of several influential French officials, who say that "if we're being targeted by Al Qaeda , it's because of our presence in Afghanistan," said Le Figaro. Reporting on May 8 suicide attack in Karachi, it said: "Although late last year France was very hesitant about taking part in the allied force in Afghanistan, the situation has changed considerably in recent months."
It was directed at them in the sense they were providing a service to the Musharraf government. But they could have been Samoans and the attack still would have happened. The attack was really directed at Perv.
