Al Qaeda Linked Group Claims 41 Western Hostages At Algerian Gas Field


Dozens Held After Islamists Attack Algerian Gas Field -- Reuters

(Reuters) - Islamist militants attacked a gas field in Algeria on Wednesday, claiming to have kidnapped up to 41 foreigners including seven Americans in a dawn raid in retaliation for France's intervention in Mali, according to regional media reports.

The raiders were also reported to have killed three people, including a Briton and a French national.

An al Qaeda affiliated group said the raid had been carried out because of Algeria's decision to allow France to use its air space for attacks against Islamists in Mali, where French forces have been in action against al Qaeda-linked militants since last week.

NO ALGERIAN GAS FOR ISRAEL. Now! DC Zionist lobby & Israelifirster will really bonk America for snogging this one. Militants are holding 41 foreigners hostage, including seven Americans, after an attack on gas field booked for Israel. Obama vowed to protect Abdelaziz Bouteflika Thugocracy in Algeria from Arabspringers tsunami provides Abdelaziz Bouteflika deliver gas to Israel at 10% of market price as Mubarak used to do in the good old days. Everyone has the right for a daydream. France ditched Syrian Arabspringers for the dogs. François Hollande went enterprising his forces as mercenary conquistadores to kill al-Shabab in Somali and rebels in Mali. Now his buttock is theirs.
