Gunmen fire on Israeli embassy in Mauritania
2008-02-01
Nouakchott: Gunmen opened fire on the Israeli Embassy in the West African nation of Mauritania on Friday morning, a Foreign Ministry spokesman said. The gunmen bravely fled after government guards fired back, the spokesman said. A bystander was shot, but no embassy employees were wounded, according to the ministry. The number of gunmen was not immediately known. Two witnesses told The Associated Press the shooting was done by a group of men shouting "Holy shit! God is Great!" in Arabic before opening fire about 2 a.m.
As a whole, muslim terrorists are not very imaginative lot when it comes to what to say when spraying bullets or blowing themselves up, are they?
Predominantly Muslim Mauritania formally opened diplomatic relations with Israel in 2000 and is one of only three Arab League members to have done so, according to the U.S. State Department.
