... in one statement:

France's Chirac hails Arafat as man of courage
French President Jacques Chirac, confirming Yasser Arafat's death, has hailed the Palestinian leader as a man of courage and conviction who embodied the Palestinian struggle for a state.

"It is with emotion that I have just learnt of the death of President Yasser Arafat, the first elected president of the Palestinian Authority," Chirac said in a written statement on Thursday. "I offer my very sincere condolences to his family and to people close to him."

Courage does not entail stealing billions of dollars from your own people and ordering the specifically-targeted deaths of your enemy's children. France's official values are once again clearly defined, and they are not ours.
