Do you know the words to the song they are singing in that video?

No. In conjunction with the poster held up referring to the Holy Psirit and Africa, and the Bibles held aloft, I'm guessing it was Gospel/Christian in nature.

The video is edited to portray something for propaganda purposes.

That does not make it a hoax.

Press reports and videos may/may not be factual...from either point.

These videos show that the French were not under fire, contrary to what they claimed; that they would embellish their account can only mean their actions were otherwise unjustified.

I just got to work and was able to download this and this is eerie video, no sound, but it's hard to tell WTF went on.

I found this and 60 sounds about right from the carnage I saw in video2


Ivory Coast accuses France of shooting civilians

By Africa correspondent Sally Sara

The Government of the Ivory Coast is planning to take legal action against French troops accused of shooting civilians.

The Ivorian Government is taking its case to the International Court of Justice.

Ivory Coast accused French troops of killing up to 60 people during an anti-French demonstration in the commercial capital, Abidjan, last week.

Human Rights Minister Victorine Wodie says the perpetrators must be punished.

But France says its soldiers were not responsible for the killings.

The Ivorian Government says it is preparing to lodge its case with the International Court of Justice.

Man what a slaughter. Never saw any blacks with guns in the entire video. Did not see anyone shoot for that matter, but noticed that almost all the wounded and dying were women.

Disgusting. A National dishonor for France.
