I personally belive that changing the names of food to
remove the word "French" was silly, and served no purpose..
especially in view that many of the food types did not
originate in France. (pommes frites.. any one).

Now many of the expatriates that I met in France have moved
back to the US within the last 6 months. Their kids have
been spit on, their houses have cruel graffiti painted on
them, and in one case a fire-bomb was thrown through the
window. In all these cases, the French police did very
little, if any investigation... so now these US citizens
are back in our country. Most lived in France for over 5
years.

Maybe it is time for the people on this list to wake up to
the reality of what is occurring in France. How many places
of Jewish worship have been burned in the last year? How
many more books will be published in France stating that
9/11 did not take place? How much more money will be
collected to support terrorist groups such as Hamas in
France? There is something fundamentally wrong with
America's "ally".
