Maybe the French would become 'paranoid' too if their families would be blown up in busses or at parties.

On the other side, the don't really care for over 10.000 deaths in a month more or less.

Better to be "paranoid" than "pussy".

Maybe if the French were a little more 'paranoid' about the Germans in the 1930's they could've successfully defended their country (for a few days longer).

And maybe if the French were a little more 'paranoid' about the Islamists currently infesting their country they'd have a chance of suriviving the next 20 years. As it stands, they have no chance.

Hey, give the French dude a break.

It's not as if the Islaminazi's were blowing up a French bus with French citizens.

Besides, what do you expect from a country with 15% of its voting citizens are Muslim wackos.

So, the ambassador to Israel insults the very country he's supposed to be spreading goodwill in? How very civilized. Didn't he listen when his mama told him if he didn't have any nice to say to not say anything at all? Oh never mind, the French let their parents die daily from lack of care.

What else should one expect from a people who leave their elderly unattended in un-air conditioned homes in the middle of a heat wave while they romp at the beach for a month? The whole world knew that France was in the middle of a heat wave and still more than 11,000 died because these clods didn't have the decency to check on their own parents!

What a shitty little country.

France's new envoy to Israel: Sharon is a ''lout''

France's newly-appointed ambassador to Israel termed Israeli Prime Minister Ariel Sharon as a "lout" and said Israel was "paranoid" during a recent foreign office cocktail party in the capital of Paris, according to an Israeli daily.

One of the Tel Aviv-based newspaper, Yediot Aharonot's reporters, Boaz Bismut, said he had overhead a conversation between Gerard Araud, who is expected to take up his position next month, and two other veteran diplomats in the gardens of the Quai D'Orsay.

Bismut said he then introduced himself to the incoming ambassador, who told him, "You don't intend to write that," explaining that his remarks were made in the course of a private party.

However, the reporter wrote that he believed that the comments "were sufficiently serious" to warrant their publication.

I wish we had a French freeper who could report to us if there's any organized political "resistance" to the anti-American, anti-Semitic French government.

BTW, anyone know whatever happened to our astute British freeper/commentator, Mad Ivan? His last post was early May.

The death toll is now over 12,000 old people in France. Hey, that's socialism for you. It's called euthaniasia in Holland.

I'll bet if you could peek into the hearts of "Christian" Frenchmen, you would find plenty of paranoia about their own Muslim problems!

They're whistling past the graveyard.

Sharon ought to make a public statement that he doesn't take seriously the remarks of a country that leaves it's elders to die of neglect while they frolic on a beach.

French ambassador calls Israel 'paranoid' and Sharon 'a lout'

By Ohad Gozani in Tel Aviv
(Filed: 01/09/2003)
The Telegraph (UK)

France's new ambassador to Israel caused a diplomatic row with his hosts yesterday after he was reported to have described the Jewish state as "paranoid" and called its prime minister, Ariel Sharon, "a lout".

Limor Livnat, Israel's education minister, said the remarks attributed to Gerard Araud were "very grave". If true, she said, Israel should refuse to accept his letter of accreditation.

The row is reminiscent of comments by Daniel Bernard, the former French ambassador to London. He caused a storm in December 2001 after being heard at a dinner party speaking of "that shitty little country, Israel".

M Araud's comments appear to have been made in a similarly unguarded moment. Boaz Bissmuth, a correspondent for the mass circulation Israeli daily Yediot Ahronot, reported hearing M Araud talk disparagingly about Israel in conversation with two other French diplomats during a recent cocktail party in Paris.

The newspaper said M Araud did not know an Israeli journalist was there. When Mr Bissmuth introduced himself, he said M Araud tried to dissuade him from reporting what he heard because it was a private occasion.

The reporter said he decided to publish them because they reflected a possible bias on the part of an envoy of "a key European Union member state".

According to the Yediot report, M Araud also tried to explain that he meant Israel "has become paranoid because of what it has gone through".

In a statement, the French foreign ministry spokesman, Hervé Ladsous, said: "Gerard Araud denies in the most formal way all of the comments attributed to him by an Israeli journalist with respect to the state of Israel and its prime minister".

• About 13,000 police officers, security personnel and volunteers fanned out across Israel yesterday to protect 1.5 million pupils returning to school after the summer holidays.

Hamas has vowed to avenge the recent killings of four activists in Israeli air strikes. The last incident was on Saturday night when rockets from an Israeli helicopter struck a car carrying two militants.

The French SUCK. Big time. They have the nerve to criticize Israel when they willingly handed their Jewish citizens over to the Germans so that they could be put in concentration camps and exterminated. The French have no soul, no courage, no LOVE. They hate their own elderly relatives so much that they leave them to die alone in the heat. I, for one, am sick and tired of hearing about these weasly subhumans.
