Let me tell you the man has balls. I do not think Le Pen wants to be elected. He alienated the Jews and the Americans. Than again France is not the US, lets see what happens.
From the same article:
What is your stand on the threat of a possible American – and even Western – strike against Iran?
The Americans reproach Iran for its uranium enrichment program, just as they reproached Saddam Hussein for holding prohibited weapons. It’s a question of a pretext, like the affair of the detention of the British sailors who, as you know, deliberately provoked Iran. The Anglo-Americans are trying to find, at any price, a pretext to attack Iran, to drag it into violence and push it into regression. I don’t see on what basis one can forbid Iran to carry on this program while at the same time tolerating Israel, Pakistan and India doing the same thing. I’ve reiterated this stance many times, and I have also advised Iran to begin a program for enriching plutonium, which is less expensive than uranium and to which certain countries of the region have recourse without causing a similar polemic…

What is your position in regard to the Israeli-Palestinian conflict?
I believe I am the only French politician to denounce the gradual extermination of the Palestinians. I see Israel’s construction of a wall of shame in the West Bank as a scandal. The Palestinian people have every right to reconquer their homeland and restore a state that respects the rights of all its citizens, regardless of their religious affiliation. In this respect I would remind you that the Palestinian resistance was for long led by Christians. I don’t understand why Hamas, which came to power by democratic means advocated by the West, should be marginalized or why the Palestinian people should be penalized for their democratic choices and dragged into a crushing economic and financial crisis that can only favor excesses and extremism. It is time the peoples of the Middle East were able to live in peace and prosperity, in mutual respect and tolerance.

Emile > With hindsight, you will see that my prediction has come to pass. Mr. Bush’s genocidal policy has succeeded in sowing trouble not only in Iraq but also throughout the region.

The biggest mistake a politician can make is to speak the truth about the US or Israel -- and the biggest advantage a politian can achieve is to curry favor with the Zionists:

"... a close advisor to Mr. Sarkozy is Mr. Arno Klarsfeld, who took Israeli nationality at the age of 37, after which he enrolled in the frontier guards of the Israeli army. This friendship between Mr. Sarkozy and Israel was enshrined a few days ago by the issuance of a postage stamp in Israel bearing the effigy of Nicolas Sarkozy."
