We should try this. Those stupid Americans did it and they can't even speak French.

Figures.

Not a single shit was given.

In October, French President Francois Hollande pledged to “use all means” to contact “anyone who can help free our hostages.”
So, they either didn't contact us or we told them to **** off. |

It was a tough mission. I think we are comparing apples and oranges here.

We perform successful SO all the time in Somalia. No one gets killed thats not suppose to get killed. |
17 to 2 seems like a good trade off to me.

Still, much like our failed Iran rescue years ago, at least they tried. |
Yeah the USA sure has never had any sort of military operation go wrong in Somalia, nope, never.

Vive la France!

"What do you figure, the breakage?"
"Figure we take out the terrorists, lose 20-25 percent of the hostages." "I can live with that." |
I saw on a documentary that is cost over a million dollars to train a Navy Seal. Each seal has the fire power of 100 men. We had an ex-seal in our group at work. A dumb-ass manager tried to intimidate him by staring him down. We just laughed knowing that was doing no good. These people are not to be trifled with.

Depends...
Basic training cost 16k+- add cost of specific MOS training,deployment gear, and you end up with 350-500k per Marine, soldier, airmen, sailor SEALS training continuous for 10+ years does get up to 500k-1million |

French Commandos are badasses. They are right there with Seals, Delta Force, and SAS. French people suck but, I gotta give credit where credit is due and those guys are no joke. In missions like that one the failure rate is very high.
Also, we tried to get a guy namd Addid in Somalia once and it went a lot worse. We have no reason to gloat. |

The french need to stick to things like making fois gras, wine, and condoms with little rubber thingies on them. They suck at war.
|
Hey, I'm amazed that they tried. I too have heard that the French Commandos are pretty friggin' badass. Instead of cheering their failure, I'm at least giving them credit for trying something that was as dangerous as that was. They just went a little lower on the pussy meter.

17-1 is a pretty good kill/death ratio, ami!
