France blasts Afghanistan suicide attack

The French Foreign Ministry denounced in strong terms the deadly bomb attack on the International Security Assistance Force (ISAF) in Kabul, capital of Afghanistan, earlier Saturday. The heinous bloody attack shows how terrorists trifle with human life and the efforts to stabilize Afghanistan, the Ministry\'s spokesman Bernard Valero told reporters here. The French government will continue supporting the efforts being made by the Afghan government to restore stability and combat terrorism, Valero affirmed. A suicide attacker, believed to be a Taliban militant, rammed his red explosives-laden Corolla into an armored bus carrying ISAF personnel. The attack killed 17 persons, including 13 US nationals - eight civilians and five military - and four Afghanis - a soldier and three civilians
