[quote=Sky News][b]France had a bomb planted at its ambassador's London residence in an attempt to test British security arrangements, newly-released files show.[/b] The 1984 plot left police "extremely annoyed" after they discovered two containers of high explosives stashed in the grounds ahead of a visit by then president, Francois Mitterand. According to the documents unveiled by the National Archives, at Kew in southwest London, the French security officer who planted the bomb was later found with further explosives in his room at the Grosvenor House Hotel.[/quote] [url=http://news.sky.com/story/1189469/french-planted-london-bomb-to-test-uk-security]Source[/Url]
Bloody French
Tempted to rate late.... 30 years late.
Awesome, hilarious and incredibly fucking stupid. I love it. :v:
I've always wondered what secret/stupid shit European nations have done.
I can't blame them. Who would ever suspect the FRENCH of doing anything dangerous.
[QUOTE]to test British security arrangements[/QUOTE] Yeah, right :v:

[QUOTE=Swilly;43416403]I've always wondered what secret/stupid shit European nations have done.[/QUOTE] We used to go to war with each other in the old days. What a jolly good time that was.
Being both French and British, I find this to be both hilarious and an outrage.
should nuke paris to see what their anti missile systems are like

In revenge we planted a bomb halfway up Charles de Gaulle.
[QUOTE]The 1984 plot left police "extremely annoyed"[/QUOTE] Yeah don't you just feel so annoyed when people leave bombs around
Didn't something like this happen in Mass Effect 3?
[QUOTE=Eudoxia;43416514]They blew up that Greenpeace boat.[/QUOTE] RIP Rainbow warrior.
Real actual bombs? Not just fake ones? what the fuck
I wonder if Merkel likes to send a few Leopards over the Rhine to test France's Anti-Tank measures as well
[QUOTE=Eudoxia;43416514]They blew up that Greenpeace boat.[/QUOTE] I was just about to mention that, they have made some rather aggressive clandestine moves in the recent past, but then again so have the British after they went on a bloody rampage in Northern Ireland although that was quite open for all to see. After a certain amount of years secret documents become public and you realize how absolutely retarded or just downright fucking morally reprehensible governments in Europe were. I'm looking at the big 3 of course France the UK and West Germany.
[QUOTE=Kirbyfactor;43416432]I can't blame them. Who would ever suspect the FRENCH of doing anything dangerous.[/QUOTE] Don't worry, it was a toy bomb that shot white flags out of a bunch of holes in it.
Another news story to get Julian Assange out of that embassy?
