Back in January a chuffed Malian communications minister informed the world that the war in his country would be over in days.
Indeed, the key town of Gao fell the very next day.
You can watch it fall again in this entertaining You Tube clip from 10 February.
Two weeks after that the Islamists were driven out of Gao again!
And according to the BBC, guess who's back today? Yup, it's those darned al Qaeda rebels!
But not to worry, the story has a happy ending. The rebels have been pushed out of town and the French and their allies are once again in control.
At least for the rest of today...
