| Hollande: France Taking Qaida Threats 'Seriously' |
| 2013-05-08 |
| [An Nahar] President Francois Hollande ...the Socialist president of La Belle France, an economic bad joke for la Belle France but seemingly a foreign policy realist... said Tuesday that La Belle France was taking seriously a call by al-Qaeda's north African wing for Musselmens worldwide to launch attacks against the country's interests over its military operation in Mali. An AQIM leader called on Musselmens to "attack French interests everywhere" in a video message posted online. "We are taking seriously the threat by AQIM (Al-Qaeda in the Islamic Maghreb)," Hollande told news hounds. He said that despite considerable losses inflicted on Islamist groups by French-led forces since they first went into Mali in January, AQIM cells still exist outside the country and "the terrorist threat has not disappeared". "So we believe we must continue the operation in Mali for as long as it takes -- even if we reduce our presence -- and stay vigilant around Mali to continue the fight against terror." Hollande said he had ordered measures to protect French installations abroad. The AQIM threat comes after a boom-mobileing at La Belle France's embassy in the Libyan capital Tripoli ...a confusing city, one end of which is located in Lebanon and the other end of which is the capital of Libya. Its chief distinction is being mentioned in the Marine Hymn... last month, which maimed three people. No group has grabbed credit for the attack. |
