#1 Look at the video of that press conference. Chiarc was preforming to the cameras and Bush stared straight at him watching every movement of every muscle. The look reminded me of a boss about to fire somebody.

#2 I don't understand what's going on here. The French are suddenly our friends? Chirac is not our friend, he's an enemy working hard against us.

Harari was a close and personal friend of Chirac and the Sauid Royal Family, and Harari used to be pro-Syrian until he had a recent change of convictions. Shalom (minister of something from Israel), was visiting Chirac at the very time that Harari was boomed. Shalom was there to discuss putting Hezbollah on the terrorist list - which Chirac refused.

Something is missing here.

#3 and no...I don't think The Jews(TM)killed Harari...for anyone who may be wondering...though I do think it significant that Harari was boomed at the very time that Chirac (his close and personal friend) was meeting with Shalom to discuss putting Hezbollah on the terrorist list.

I think it was the Syrians...not that there aren't enough possible suspects to make a good Agatha Christie novel. It's just things should make sense in this world......

#4 It might have been Hizb'allah, too, in a message to Chiraq and the EU that they do not wish to be put on that list.

#8 Is it just me or is there something uncomfortable about having the French behind us ...

Nothing mysterious. If you were listening to the rascally Laura Ingraham this AM, you heard her interviewing an NRO person, who says the "Chirac family" are up to their eyeballs with Lebanese investments, and they'd be much more profitable with Syria gone!

That lady knows who to ask for, to get info on what bodies are buried where... He he he

#9 ahhh....thank you BigEd. Chirac motivated by money more than his hatred of America ...now that I can understand.

#10 Eh, I'm inclined to believe that it's never really been about hatred of America for Chirac...
Everything has been about either the money or staying out of jail.
