If this is so, it looks like the French may have to re-think their stance on the War on Terror.  It also is a signal to other fence-sitting countries that they are not safe by virtue of their inaction.

HA HA HA HA HA HA HA!  Yeah right, you honestly believe it if was a terrorist attack that the French will side with us!?  The Europeans will only say that it was American aggression that made the terrorists target them blah blah blah.

I'm no fan of the French, but I do have to say that they fought their own war against terror during the mid 1980's and won without America's help. They even sank a Green Peace ship that was causing them problems in their South Pacific nuclear test area.

BTW US DoD sources say that the explosion was caused by an electrical fire. French and Yemeni officials say the cause is still under investigation.

"The owners of a French oil tanker on fire off the coast of Yemen say they believe it was rammed by a smaller boat, before exploding into flames."

[b]Let me guess...

... the small boat that rammed it was piloted by "Hispanic-looking" men. [rolleyes][/b]

On ABC news tonight the French were insisting that only a bomb could have caused the fire.

I think they are right, they showed video. A burning oil slick about a quarter mile wide and the amidships area of the ship also in flames.

Hard to do that with a 'elecrical fire'

A Froggy went a-warring and he did ride,
A Froggy went a-warring and he did ride,
A Froggy went a-warring on a little white horse,
A sword and pistol by his side.

He went down to Osama's door,
He went down to Osama's door,
He went down to Osama's door,
Where he had never been before.

Then he took Sadam upon his knee,
And he took Sadam upon his knee,
And he took Sadam upon his knee,
And paddled Sadam till he squirted pee.

this didn't turn out as funny as i hoped it would...
