tylersk8shop Posted December 22, 2006 Share Posted December 22, 2006 Documentary: French soldiers had 2 chances to kill bin Laden Last Updated: Friday, December 22, 2006 | 1:24 PM ET CBC News A French documentary claims French soldiers had two opportunities to shoot and kill Osama bin Laden, but they were not given the go-ahead by their American superiors. According to media reports, the documentary says special French forces had the leader of al-Qaeda in their sights twice in Afghanistan, in 2003 and 2004. The soldiers would have fired on him, the film says, but the order to kill simply never came from the U.S. commanders in charge. The newspaper Le Figaro said Thursday that the documentary is based on interviews of four soldiers by filmmakers ÃÆÃââââ¬Ã°ric de LavarÃÆÃâÃâène and Emmanuel Razavi, who call their documentary Ben Laden, les ratÃÆÃâÃâés d'une traque (Bin Laden, the Failures of a Manhunt ). The documentary has created a stir among government officials. The French cable network LCI says the defence ministry is calling the film's claims "pure fabrication."

BlueLancer Posted December 22, 2006 Share Posted December 22, 2006 Knowing the french, they probably failed killing bin Laden because they tried throwing their guns at him instead of reloading. ... But anyways, would be nice to see the 'whole picture' if a canadian could tell what the document included :) That's a very brief summary.. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I hate all these divisional games. They get old after a while. The schedules are messed up as is. They need more opposite conference games and less divisional games.

Fadfdfd Posted December 22, 2006 Share Posted December 22, 2006 Also, Here is a link to something for the NHL for any hockey fans: http://www.cbc.ca/sports/hockey/story/2 ... anges.html Sounds like the AHL, minor league hockey, step down from NHL. Here's Their Format They used to have 8 divisions I think Now the top 5 teams in each division make it 4 v 5 play in a 3-game playoff to decide who plays #1. Winner of 1 v. 4/5 plays winner of 2 v. 3 (I think it's best of five) Winner of that game plays the winner of the other division. The winner of that game plays winner of the other conference.

deloriagod Posted December 22, 2006 Share Posted December 22, 2006 French people aren't big fans of Americans, so why not say they didn't shoot because the US never gave the order. They probably tried to kill him and didn't succeed. If I was a soldier there's no way I'd wait for the order if I had some one like Bin Laden in my sight. A little twitch of my trigger finger and there's a hole in his head. -1 terrorist. Internet Marketing For Newbies Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
