Yesterday the Toronto Star carried this headline on page A16; Mali residents repel rebels.
In the first place you want to high five the editor who came up with that triple alliteration. Well played, my friend!
And that certainly looks like a good-news story! Maybe they don't even need the forces of Hollande the Conqueror if they're going to stand up for themselves.
The subhead is even cheerier; Islamists driven out of Diabaly by brave townspeople.
By God, those folks have found their backbone! Wonder what they're driving the limb-hacking, child-raping forces of evil out of town with?...
Prayer?
Spears?
Some divinely empowered combination of the two?
Turns out the brave townspeople are ringing up the French commanders and calling in French air strikes. The story in the Star is this story from McClatchy with a little tweaking of the title.
