Part of channel(s): French Airstrikes in Mali (current event)This ain't good news for sure. Let's only hope that this is momentary and that the advance of the Wahhabis won't last long ...
Original source:By Rukmini Callimachi And Baba Ahmed, January 14, 2013 11:00 PM
Despite a punishing aerial bombardment by French warplanes, al-Qaida-linked insurgents grabbed more territory in Mali on Monday, seizing a strategic military camp that brought them far closer to the government's seat of power.
Declaring France had "opened the gates of hell" with its assault, the rebels threatened retribution.
"France ... has fallen into a trap much more dangerous than Iraq, Afghanistan or Somalia," declared Omar Ould Hamaha, a leader of the Movement for Oneness and Jihad in West Africa, one of the rebel groups controlling the north, speaking on French radio network Europe 1.
French fighter jets have been pummeling the insurgents' desert stronghold in the north since Friday, determined to shatter the Islamist domination of a region many fear could become a launch pad for terrorist attacks on the West and a base for co-ordination with al-Qaida in Yemen, Somalia and Pakistan.
The Islamist fighters responded with a counter-offensive Monday, overrunning the garrison town of Diabaly, about 160 kilometres north of Segou, the administrative capital of central Mali, said French Defence Minister Jean-Yves Le Drian.
The French embassy in Bamako immediately ordered the evacuation of the roughly 60 French nationals in the Segou region, said a French citizen who insisted on anonymity out of fear for her safety.
France expanded its aerial bombing campaign, launching airstrikes for the first time in central Mali to combat the new threat. But the intense assault, including raids by gunship helicopters and Mirage fighter jets, failed to halt the advance of the rebels, who were 400 kilometres from the capital, Bamako, in the far south.

I don't know. Non-Muslim troops have killed thousands and thousands of the buggers around the world and it doesn't look like it's stopping any time soon.

It's hard to kill people who welcome death. As bad as this sounds, you need to go after their family, houses, property, etc. I know it sounds just as bad them, killing their famil and burning there property, but these aren't normal people that you are fighting.

There's going to be a lot of dead jihad's in the coming weeks, once the French and Africans co-ordinate themselves.

the main reason behind the French intervention in Mali is to promote their Rafales to the GCC countries, but we dont give a fuck about their fighter jets.

my understanding was they ran away to Diabaly hiding from the french bombers , no doubt they will be running all over mali as they try to hide.
wahabbism will soon be a global target hopefully.

It's a wrong understanding, not quite surprised about that.
It's a complex conflict, with many factions, some shifted sides just recently.
I hope France can stop it but it will be very hard.

@croat I don't know if France have so many muslims but they have a lot of them. So it's possible that very soon, France will have a lot of islamic activity inside his borders...

@blecklerock Sorry what I meant only black only Muslims or black and Muslims or marred to them!
When you deduct from the total number Germans, eastern Europeans and other that donβt feel French engulf I think it half half.

Al-jazeera wrote this. They'll spin it for radical muslims no matter what, they could be nuked and al-jazeera will say they are re-grouping.

With a desert terrain,and control of the sky.It should be a Turkey shoot.Ground troops go in mop up any stragglers.The only restraint should be the logistics of getting enough ordnance.
