It's amazing France didn't just surrender after threats to block French stations in Lebanon and the Arab world. Still, I applaud France for standing up to anti-Semitism for a change.

Lies like "Zionist attempts to transmit dangerous diseases like AIDS through exports to Arab countries" have no business being broadcast in the EU, particularly in a country with Europe's largest Jewish population.

In an ironic twist, Arab nations embraced French televison as being "Anti-American".

Commentators say this yet another policy implementation of Jacques Chirac's stated aspiration to spent eternity in a cool place. When reached for comment, a Chirac spokesperson declared: "The President has often said privately that it would be a cold day in Hell before he helped the Jews."

"dangerous diseases like AIDS" must be spread "through exports to Arab countries" because, as everyone knows, Moslems don't get AIDS through any of the other means. Just as that Egyptian Moslem pilot didn't crash that Egyptair plane into the ocean in order to commit suicide, because Moslems don't commit suicide. ;')

This sorry excuse for a TV station should have been closed a long time ago, and I'm glad this case is finally closed !

BTW, French Presidential hopeful was in Israel this week, and he said "antisemitism cannot be explained. Explaining the unexplainable sooner or later leads to excusing the inexcusable. Antisemitism is not something to be explained. It is something to be fought"
