Muslim terrorists opened fire on an upscale hotel on Friday in the city of Bamako, the capital of the western African state of Mali.
The jihadists used automatic weapons according to security sources, and apparently have taken people hostage in the Radisson Blu Hotel. Some reports indicate that at least three people have died in the attack.
The luxury hotel, which has 190 rooms, is a popular site for Western officials according to French-language media.
According to the French RFI radio, the attack was launched by three assailants who entered the hotel with diplomatic cars.
Security forces have set up a cordon around the building, and a security source told AFP that "it's all happening on the seventh floor, jihadists are firing in the corridor."

PARIS, Nov 20 (Reuters) - Fifty elite armed French police officers will head to Bamako on Friday after Islamist gunmen attacked a luxury hotel and took hostages in the Malian capital, a gendarmerie spokesman said.
“The departure is imminent,” said the spokesman.
Forty of the men are from the GIGN, (National Gendarmerie Intervention Group), an elite armed group trained to intervene in such circumstances. The other 10 are forensic and criminal experts, he said.
They are going “to advise and support Malian security forces in terms of intervention,” an interior ministry spokesman said.

That'll bring those murdering savages to their senses!
Hey, but these were just “tourists” to Mali ...nothing to be afraid of. Just move along and enjoy the view!
I hope either the SAS or SBS are also there or on standby.
Fox is getting just plain stupid in the morning. Christmas gifts, cooking, all kinds of silly nonsense. I just tuned in to find out about yet another terror attack, and I have to wait until the top of the hour.
Paging Hitlery Clinton.....please tell us again how this has nothing to do with islam. It’s getting more and more difficult for the stupid masses, myself included, to believe you.

The hostage takers don’t care about escaping. These demonic savages WANT to die, taking out as many infidels at the same time as they can. That none will escape is irrelevant.
A major international mining conference - JMP ‘15 - ended on Thursday in Mali's capital, Bamako and there has been some concern that delegates have been caught up in the hostage situation at the Radisson Blu hotel.
One of the group's organising the conference - AMETrade UK Limited - has issued a statement to say that most delegates and clients had left Bamako before the attack.
But adds that “as the situation is very fluid and on-going, it is impossible to make any categorical statements as to whom or where the hostages are”.
