Branding Sharon's language "unacceptable," a French Foreign Ministry spokesman said Paris had demanded an explanation.

I'll bet the Israelis are shaking in their boots...

(Boycott everything French forever. Including their vassal nations.)

I have boycotted Perrier for several years because of the French government's again showing its historic cowardice and lack of morality. Since they refuse to fight world terrorism or the terrorists in their midst, I'm happy to be buying U.S. sparkling waters and other U.S. products.

I believe you lack the proper respect for modern journalism. Perhaps a course at our Reeducation Center is called for. The authorities have been notified.

Paris should slam some of its jihadi.

The comment was an attack on the French government for its Arabist policies abroad and failure to deal with the radicalization and increase of arabs at home.
Sharon did not call French Jews Israeli. Of course,anti-Semites already believe this to be the case, so what is the harm?

The problem is that the Israeli left loves the money, as they funnel it to prop up the Israeli welfare state, which is stiffling Israel. Moreover, the Israeli left likes Israel's hands tied. In 1998, then Prime Minister Netanyahu (now finance minister) stood before congress and called for a stepped cessation of economic aid. Of course, he is a Likudnik.

"Boycotts hurt you more than the person you are boycotting"

Bullocks. Virtue is its own reward.

And Sharon was on target for calling the French Government out.

Jews in various host countries will be forced to declare their primary loyalty - France or Israel? The UK or Israel? America or Israel?

Hmmm, I wonder if anyone would ever ask muslims such questions?

Which is why france is crying about the slump in whine oops I mean wine sales.

Whine they still have plenty of, but come to think of it, only liberals buy the whine.

I trust that since 9/11 the FBI has been doing exactly that - in pointed fashion.

I suspect many of the French would like very much for the Jews to leave. They just don't want to be seen as wanting them to leave.

something else I'd love to see the numbers on is exactly what sort of people the French Jews are, vs the "North African Immigrants."

Which are actually the sort who contribute to both French society, as well as the "tax base?" Which group is made up of a greater number of scholars, doctors, teachers, etc? With the French, it's always best to "follow the money."

Really? In what way... When I needed motorcycle tires, I wound up going with my old standard, Dunlops (wonderful tires, by the way, that I'm completely incapable of utilizing to their performance maximum) rather than Michelins. When I was boycotting S&W, I wound up with a very nice Springfield Armory 1911, rather than a revolver. When I needed to stay at a hotel, I avoided an Accor hotel, like Motel 6. I stayed in a US owned chain. In every case where I wa boycotting, I made sure to let the company know that I was not using their products, and exactly why.

Please tell me exactly how I'm hurt?

Mark

"We immediately made contact with the Israeli authorities to ask for an explanation of these unacceptable comments."
 
I think I can help you out here, frenchy.  Your country is on it's way to becoming Algeria North and they don't take too kindly to the Juden there.  Why don't you get a start on growing that beard and boning up on the sharia law, it'll come in handy.

"America can "no comment" all it wants; the question hangs like a vulture"

Actually, the 'question' is ridiculous. Sharon encouraged some Jews to leave France, France allows them to leave or stay as they choose. There is no 'question' as relates to the U.S.

Sharon never ceases to amaze me. The old soldier is a brilliant politician as well.

I hope Jews do leave, and then the frogs can live among the death cultists exclusively. See how they like it!
