I loved this article.
I'm writing from France now, we've been here around 8 months. Everything he says here is so true, it's hard to believe that he's not living here to be so incisive.
Chirac is so elitist that it oozes from his voice, it's sickening.
I've lived in the 'banlieu' (suburbs) and Paris. Outside Paris is the worst.
And not just the Jews, the Arabs have made much of it UNBEARABLE for the average frenchman.
I was encouraged by the high percentage that Le Pen garnered. (Although I may be one of the first thrown out!) It showed that the French are willing to give the police some 'teeth', and they see clearly their country slipping away from them.
I lived here 20 years ago, and it's unbelievable how it has deteriated. It's FILTHY, and unpleasant. (let's not speak about the dog.... situation)
My hope was that Chirac would have a little humility and learn something from the French voters' message;... but alas, not to be. He's refusing to debate. (Like Steyn says: 'It's beneath them.')
Thanks again,
Best, Sarah
Sarah,
The activities of the Arabs in France has been documented.
What have the Jews done that makes you lump them in with the Arabs in the same sentence?

It's a must read if there ever was one on Free Republic.
