Al-Qaeda group threatens attacks in France
DUBAI, May 15, 2007 (AFP) - An Al-Qaeda front group in Europe threatened on Tuesday to launch bloody attacks in France in response to the election of "crusader and Zionist" Nicolas Sarkozy as president.
"As you have chosen the crusader and Zionist Sarkozy as a leader ... we in the Abu Hafs al-Masri Brigades warn you that the coming days will see a bloody jihadist campaign ... in the capital of Sarkozy," the group's "Europe division" said in an Internet statement addressed to the French people.
Uh, correct me if I'm wrong... but weren't the Islamists the ones who protested so loudly when the West refused to acknowledge Hamas as the newly-elected government of the Palestinians?
Now they're threatening bloodshed... because of an electoral outcome they didn't like. Swell.
