I called my contacts in France and they tell me nothing is wrong. They spoke with Air France and things seem ok. The French I speak and work with are great people. The other comments I see seem small-minded. We are all in this war together. Some people are helping and some are not. Don't generalize the rest for the actions of a few dopes. I hope the French stay safe as well as ourselves. God bless everyone!

France cancels flights to LA

24/12/2003 20:36 - (SA)

Paris - French authorities cancelled three Air France flights to Los Angeles airport on Wednesday after the US embassy in Paris warned it feared they might be used for terrorist attacks.

Interior ministry officials said the order was given after a top-level ministerial meeting was called to consider the embassy alert.

In Los Angeles, officials said the city's airport was experiencing its tightest security clampdown since the September 11, 2001 attacks.

The United States on the weekend raised its nationwide alert of attacks to an "elevated" level.

>>We are all in this war together.

The French have had a funny way of showing it. Many Americans have taken note of this, and make derisive comments. This should not be unexpected.

I'll second that, I've worked with French folks and they're quite OK, just like all people everywhere normally are.

OTOH, I also know a Frenchman who lives in the U.S. and hates all things American, but then again he's nondiscriminatory and hates everything else too.

Amen. No matter what, the French are still our good friends, despite what hyped-up reports you see in the media and on internet chat sites.
