Strauss-Kahn was set up, French say
When news broke that Dominique Strauss-Kahn was arrested in New York on criminal sex charges, theories that the IMF chief had been set up began circulating in France.

In the immediate aftermath of Dominique Strauss-Kahns dramatic arrest, the majority of French people were inclined to believe that the managing director of the International Monetary Fund was the victim of a conspiracy, an opinion poll revealed on Wednesday.
The survey, conducted by French polling agency CSA after New York City police charged Strauss-Kahn with sexually assaulting and attempting to rape a hotel maid in a luxury hotel, found that 57 percent of people interviewed thought he was set up. Just 32 percent of people thought he was not the victim of a plot and a further 11 percent had no opinion.

In response, French may cry double standard. He is charged and convicted for rape, but there is a certain well-known U.S. politician who successfully dodged the similar charges: Bill Clinton. Whether French used to like him or not is moot. They could use Clinton's case to get back at Americans.

As well he should be. The IMF needs to be axed.
Damn straight, b*tch set him up!
In France perhaps. Not here. Most Americans don't care about this guy, to the point where few knew/know who he is. That won't change much, even with the media attention it will get. It's a French/New York angle story.
How do you say that in French??
And the Ruling Class begins circling the wagons to protect one of their leaders.
So what, that still does not exonerate him of rape. If he was set up, could we get this outfit’s number and do the same to zero? Could the Mossad do this?
La Chienne m’ont incité à être blâmé!
Yeah and OJ is going to look for the real killer after he gets out of jail.
Knowing how the Chicago Thug mentality permeates the Stroker Regime, it wouldn’t surprise me at all to find that the French got this right.
What better way to assure the financial demise of the United States than to put someone of the “caliber” of a Timothy Geitner into the top slot of the IMF?
You have to know that George Soros would be more than willing and happy to finance and facilitate such a move. He is deeply imbedded into the inner workings of this Regime.
Big political struggle going on in France. Sarkozy is happier then hell.
The fact the French look down their noses at Americans is old news. It’s a given. They can hurl epithets all they want, it’ll be taken as the usual tripe from them. We have too many of our own serious problems to worry about, let along get hung up on what the French hate about us now.
As for Strauss-Kahn, the media will hype it up, but it’ll only be a big deal in New York and other socialist havens. The rest of the country will “Ho-hum”...

Given this guy's past, he is just as likely to be 100% guilty as charged.
There is no good resolution to this one.
Not to pick nits, but wouldn’t that be “La Chienne m’a incite a etre blame?”
An avowed socialist that crashes in $3,000-a-night hotel rooms is exactly what his opponents nicknamed him - a champagne socialist. That’s $125-an-hour. You know what they say: $125-an-hour here, a $125-an-hour there - pretty soon you’re talking real money.
