Five of those killed were French citizens, while the other four had traveled to Iraq from France. "We are working with international authorities to determine their identities," Gaudin said.
Two more French people were in custody after having been detained by coalition forces operating in Iraq, a national police spokesman said.
Moussaouii will love the company.

And there's a difference between "people" and "French citizens".
France has openly supported Saddam's Iraq. Now it is a nest for terrorist networks, most probably those wannabe jihadists receive state subsidies. So in a way, France is allowing this to happen.
