#2 Heh, heh - this is truly one of those precious moments... sahweeeeet.

I hope that Israel "denies in the most formal way" the credentials of this Phrench "lout" and sends him home to Mother Phrawnce either tourist class or by fishing boat.

#3 Regretfully, If france should pull this fool from the stage and replace him, they are not exactly at loss for the next guy who thinks that Sharon is the loutish leader of a paranoid state. The next guy may have just passed "diplomacy 101: Keep your mouth shut at cocktail parties, schmuck!" with a better grade than Araud.

#4 DS - You're right. So Israel should just continue rejecting the diplomatic credentials of those offered by this deeply sick, twisted, anti-Jew* country until they send someone who has actual credentials as a human being. This could take a very long time. But who would notice? No one - especially Israel.

*I did not use "anti-Semitic" because the Arabs are Semites, too - and everyone knows the Phrench love them.

#6 Well, you know, Israel's just a "shitty little country." What do they matter to La Belle France? Gotta watch those dinner party conversations, though...

#8 I'd prefer he be towed back to Marsailles by Reshef-class guided missile frigate - on a long tether.

#10 "I tell ya, the guy's paranoid! He told me to my face that he wouldn't trust the French as far as he could throw the Eiffel Tower!..."
