French officials were probing Monday an incident that left 17 people injured, including a child in critical condition, when soldiers used live rounds in a weekend visitors day display.
Fifteen civilians, including five children, and two soldiers were injured on Sunday when members of a marines parachute regiment demonstrated a hostage liberation exercise to visitors at their barracks outside the southwestern city of Carcassonne, regional officials said.
Ah...Les Seuls...
Sarkozy's heroes showing everyone how liberated they'll make them...
If that's their definition of "recuse", I'd rather wait as a hostage...

ReplyDeleteI'm assuming the five injured children weren't German AND weren't armed. Else the French Marines would have surrendered behind Sarcozy's white neglig.... er, uh, bedsheet.
ReplyDeleteNegligence, pure negligence. And not just on the soldier's part. The planners who decided firing even blanks into a crowd of civilian observers was a good idea should be held responsible, too. Do they still have the guillotine there? If not, can we break it out any way?
