Oh Sure the French documentary which claims the US would not give the order to kill Bin Laden is legit!

By Francois Murphy Tue Dec 19, 1:55 PM ET
  • PARIS (Reuters) - A documentary says French special forces had Osama bin Laden in their sights twice about three years ago but their U.S. superiors never ordered them to fire.
  • The French military, however, said that the incidents never happened and the report was "erroneous information."
  • The documentary, due to air next year and seen by Reuters on Tuesday, says the troops could have killed the al Qaeda leader in Afghanistan but the order to shoot never came, possibly because it took too long to request it.
  • "In 2003 and 2004 we had bin Laden in our sights. The sniper said 'I have bin Laden'," an anonymous French soldier is quoted as saying.
Could this be TRUE?
  • #1 I do not trust the government derriere kissing Le Monde anti-Bush dominated Media in France..
  • #2 The French have their own low to mid Intifada in French City of which Bin Ladin is the source of its inspiration, so wouldn't a French Patriot as a member of the "Resistance" take out Bin Laden?
  • #3 Why would a Frenchman wait for orders from a US Military General anyways?
  • This is a Ploy to paint Bush and Rumfeld as Stooges
Bottom line I do not buy this and believe it will become the stuff of Urban Lore.

  • From Wikipedia: One way in which French papers differ markedly from those of other Western countries is their seeming deference to the government and political figures.
Thanks for Reading and Dominus Vobiscum
