The French are a very proud people.
Well, ok they’re arrogant. But they’re very proud. It would not surprize this poster one bit, if the very same whine and cheese crowd which has complained about Bush for the last decade — were to suddenly erupt in a countrywide wave of support for Zarkozy if he comes down like a ton of bricks on the rioters.
I really think the French don’t so much mind cowboy diplomacy. What bugs them, is when Americans get to do it all.
Time for Zarkozy to respond big.
But French intellectuals won’t like it if Sarkozy comes down hard on the yutes. They’ll say he’s being Hitler. That being said, I can’t believe the French have put up with this nonsense for so long. Time to crack a few skulls.
Societies need to have laws and rules. These people don’t seem to respect either. Personally, I think they need to be rounded up and put in prison....but that is just me.
Zarkozy’s response will be very interesting.
