MSNBC’s ‘truck crash’ framing of France terror attack ignites Twitter mockery
2016-07-17
[WASHINGTONTIMES] An MSNBC tweet on late Thursday that framed La Belle France’s latest terror attack as a "truck crash" elicited a stinging response from readers.

"Follow our live blog for the latest from Nice after a truck crash leaves at least 70 dead," the network tweeted at 8:49 p.m. EST., well after even President B.O. and French President Francois Hollande
...the Socialist president of La Belle France, an economic bad joke for la Belle France but seemingly a foreign policy realist...
called the event an act of terrorism.

Mohammed Lahouaiej Bouhlel, 31, killed at least 84 people during Bastille Day ceremonies by plowing a giant truck through crowds along the Promenade des Anglais.

"We cannot deny that it was a terror attack," Mr. Hollande told the country during a nationally televised address.

"We stand in solidarity and partnership with La Belle France, our oldest ally, as they respond to and recover from this attack," added Mr. Obama in a statement.

#2  Must be frustrating for the jihadis. "Dude, we kill or injure nearly 300 people in a major infidel city and they're calling it a car wreck? It's JIHAD, dammit! Death to the infidel. Aloha, Snackbar."
