[Cicero]

This isn't a matter of race. You can blame this one on Chirac. The government of the Ivory Coast and the people living around the capital are Christians. They are being invaded and threatened by Muslims from the north. Chirac pretended to help them, and then he betrayed them and tried to force them to accept Muslim invaders in their government. So the locals have pretty good reasons to be angry with the French.

This is not Rhodesia. Er, sorry, Zimbabwe.

More coddling of Muslims because he fears them at home?
