These enthusiastic young people were wonderful. They brought creative signs, a stuffed Saddam doll which for a while hung in a tree holding a white flag, chanted faster than us older folk are used to doing, and sang very loud. They brought plenty of the French national flag -- torn white scraps of material on sticks -- in case any across the way needed one.

It was a pleasure to stand beside such a patriotic group.

Now, wasn't that nice of them?
