France Detains Five Men In Connection With Algeria Bombing
2007-12-21
Five men are being held by French authorities in connection with last week's bombing of U.N. offices in Algeria. The men are suspected of giving logistical support to al-Qaida in Islamic North Africa. The terrorist group has claimed responsibility for the twin truck bombings of the U.N. offices and an Algerian government building. The attacks left at least 37 people dead.

The suspects were rounded up in France on Tuesday. An official says three other men were also detained and later released. The men are described as North African and French. A French newspaper reports they have been under surveillance for months. Police say there's nothing to suggest that they had any direct involvement in the December 11th bombings and they're not suspected of planning any attacks in France.

And jackals, yeah they do that sort of thing. I expect more from beings of God. (at least floss)

#2  Oh! No!, Now the UN is going to have to withdraw from Algeria since they are being attacked by Al Qaida. Just like they had to leave Iraq, and Afganistan and ...
The jackals always attack the weak, the stray, the faint hearted. Mother nature knows best, ya know.
