Gus, don't forget that France is still a place where you can criticise anybody including Jews for not behaving. You try that in Germany, you get locked up. Taro

Re: Mr. Sarkozy recently suggested that France abandon the pretense that all of its citizens -- including an estimated 5 million Muslims -- are treated equally, and adopt affirmative-action policies. He has also promoted the idea of a peaceful and tolerant "French Islam" to compete with imported ideologies of extremism. Well, I'm highly doubtful of Nicolas Sarkozy as a French Lyndon B. Johnson keen on implementing a Frenchified Great Society... I suspect most of Sarkozy's plea for affirmative action is but lip service to bait both leftist/liberal and immigrant voters.... I agree. It doesn't sound out of character for him. Maybe he's 'a compassionate conservative'. ;`) ted
