Interesting article. Personally, I have no difficulty believing that the same government that plagiarized a college student's paper and tried to present it to the U.N. as evidence of Iraq's "weapons of mass destruction" would engage in a libelous campaign to provoke anti-French sentiment.

Quote:
Campaigns calling for a boycott of French wine and cheese, and restaurants that have replaced "French fries" with "freedom fries" on their menus, have amused and worried the French
I'm glad they put the word 'amused' first in that article. It amuses the rest of the world a great deal, as well.

And to everyone who seems to have embraced inane France-bashing as the fashionable thing to do... I wonder if you realize just how much France has historically done for both America and the world in general.
