France denies reports its troops arrested Gbagbo

A French government source on Monday denied reports that French troops had placed in durance vile Ivory Coast strongman Laurent Gbagbo,
... Former President-for-Life of Ivory Coast from 2000 to 2011. Laurent lost to

Alassane Ouattara in 2010 but his representtive tore up the results on the teevee and he refused to vacate the presidential palace. French troops assisted the Oattara forces in extricating him from his Fuhrerbunker....
as forces loyal to his rival Alassane Ouattara stormed his headquarters.

"We got you guys here, now it's your turn. Do it exactly as we taught you, 'k?"

"Mr. Gbagbo was placed in durance vile by Mr. Ouattara's troops, that is true, but not by French special forces, who did not go into the enclosure of (Gbagbo's) residence," the source said.

Earlier, witnesses had reported seeing pro-Ouattara forces entering Gbagbo's besieged residential compound, while French and UN armoured vehicles deployed on a road leading to the complex.

#1 ION LES FRANCAISE, MEMRI > BELGIAN ISLAMIST ABU IMRAN ON APRIL 9th DEMOSTRATION IN PARIS: PLANT THE BLACK FLAG OF "THERE IS NO GOD BUT ALLAH" OVER ELYSEE' PALACE; CARLA BRUNI SHOULD DIVOCE SARKOZY + WEAR THE NIQAB.

ARTIC = ABU IMRAN = also warns that ...
> Muslims are coming to "RECLAIM THEIR LANDS".
> Tacit rejection of [Western]Democracy for Muslims in France + EuroStates.
> reminds Frenchies of ANDALUSA, + that Islam once held control of POITIERS + PARTS OF FRANCE.

IIUC Methinks Radical Islam isn't going to settle for REGAINING CONTROL OF ONLY "PARTS OF FRANCE" OR "EUROPE" ANYMORE AS PER CHARLES MARTEL - THEY WANT IT ALL + EVERY ESCARGOT + WINE THAT GOES WID IT???

#3 As I said earlier, it sounds as if they used a French armored column to carry wosshisname's troops to the palace to do the arrest.
