| Frenchman 'kills Somali captors' | |
| 2009-08-26 | |
| A French security adviser seized by Islamist militants in Somalia has escaped his captors, officials say. The Frenchman, who was kidnapped from a hotel in Mogadishu along with a colleague last month, reportedly killed three militants as he made his escape. The fate of the second hostage is not clear. An earlier report that said he was free has now been retracted.

| #4 Somalia would be a good place to stage a symbolic ARCLIGHT strike. No matter who dies, they probably had ties to SOME rebel group. |

| #1 And if he had waited and let diplomacy take its course, then none of these people would have had to die. If he's white and he killed blacks, then it's racist hate crime, too. |
