MQ,
NY Post front page today pictures cemetary in France with 10,000 crosses and Jewish stars representing those lost at Normandy. the caption reads;

SACRIFICE

They died for France but France has forgotten.

>>The Chinese 50th celebrations were funny like that too, with Jiang Zemin riding up and down in a silly limousine, with him shouting "Sieg" and the crowd roaring back "Heil" [or whatever the Chinese equivalent was]. As seen on tv. <<

FYI, Jiang said "how do you do (or good morning), comrades", and the crowd said "how do you do, Chairman Jiang". I personally think westerners also greet their president or prime ministers like this?
