A Frenchman, Georges Malbrunot, who was a hostage of the Islamicists but was released in December 2004, comments on who the “us” is in “why they hate us”:
“Little by little, we came to discover we were really on planet bin Laden,” he wrote in Le Figaro. “For them [the terrorists], France is the West, it’s a global vision, it’s the infidel West against the Muslim world.”
