#1 Serge July said he would use the working visit to the Iraqi capital, which is being coordinated with the French embassy in Baghdad, to explain through the Iraqi media the growing Europe-wide campaign for Aubenasâs release.

In other words, he wants to drive home the difference between the EU and the Coalition. What's the French word for 'grovel' again?

#2 I hope this frog asshole takes some cues for the Italians and clues the U. S. military in on what he is up to, distasteful as it may be for him. It would be far less unfrotunate if we killed a couple of ~~the enemy~~ frogs trying to breach oud checkpoint unannounced.

#5 At least he is announcing his presence this time, since the secret approach did not work so well. Meanwhile, the terrorists' see ***Ka-ching, Ka-ching*** in his visit.

"This may be the gift from Allah that we have been praying for, Mahmoud."
"Yes, Achmed, this infidel may solve our cash flow problems."
"I used to scoff at your reading of infidel theories of investments, Mahmoud, I thought that it was Un-Islamic, but now I see that our detention of the infidel female Florence Aubenas is a wise and crafty long-term investment.
"Yes, Achmed. Just another way of financing the war, when our Syrian connection was severed."
