Another Botched French Rescue Operation
Bula-Marer (12/01/2013) - At around 0200 hours Saturday morning five
French helicopters attacked a location in the town of Bula-Marer, around
30 km South of Marka in the Islamic Administration of Lower Shabeelle,
in a botched rescue attempt aimed at releasing the French hostage Dennis
Allex.
In a battle that lasted for about 45 minutes, the Mujahideen have, with
the blessing of Allah alone, successfully foiled the attack and, after a
fierce firefight, managed to repel the French forces that took part in
the operation that was inevitably doomed to fail.
The helicopters attacked a house in Bula-Marer upon the assumption that
Dennis Allex was being held at that location, but owing to a fatal
intelligence blunder, the rescue mission turned disastrously wrong.
Several French soldiers were killed in the battle and many more were
injured before they fled from the scene of battle, leaving behind some
military paraphernalia and even one of their comrades on the ground. The
injured French soldier is now in the custody of the Mujahideen and
Allex still remains safe and far from the location of the battle.
Despite the numerous warnings by the Mujahideen leaders, most recently
Sheikh Mus’ab Abdul Wadud, that any attempt to forcibly rescue French
hostages would result in disaster, yet Francois Hollande’s government
heedlessly continues to plough on with the reckless policies of its
predecessor.
The series of failed rescue attempts carried out by the French forces
not only epitomise the French government’s distinct imprudence when it
comes to dealing with hostages, but also clearly highlights its
recurrent policy of continued disregard for the lives of its citizens.
And instead of rescuing them, such ill-advised operations only further
imperil the lives of the hostages. And in the end, it will be the French
citizens who will inevitably taste the bitter consequences of their
government’s devil-may-care attitude towards hostages.
As a response to this botched rescue operation by the French forces,
Harakat Al-Shabaab Al-Mujahideen assures the French people that it will
give its final verdict regarding the fate of Dennis Allex within two
days.
