French training exercise leads to explosive mistake.

Ahhh, our amis, the frogs.

This leads to the observation that perhaps the Inspector Clouseau and his leetle yellow fwend are alive and kicking, and working for the Paree poleece.

It also leads me to wonder if the Frenchies have their hearts in the anti-terror thing. Feel happy, dear travelers, though, because the gentelman at the French Military Information Department (You know, the one who will let us know just how fast the retreat du jour is going) because, in his words, the plastique is "totally inoffensive."

And, after all, it was only a simple mistake:
"During what was described as a "lapse of attention," a baggage handler put the suitcase with checked luggage being sent to an aircraft hold."
