I can only hope that he is a master of disguises, knows more languages than Pope John-Paul, and can fight off thousands at a time when needed. I also hope he makes it out of there alive and well.

The French run Djibouti, just to the north. If this story is so then he should soon be out of there.

I’ll bet he’s going to be extradited back to Somalia to face charges of 3 counts of murder.

Woo-hoo! What a dude. I’ll never talk about cheese eating surrender monkeys again.

Unless of course the French decide to prosecute him for “murder.” That’s what would happen under an Obama administration...
