| Bardot decries ’Islamization of France’ |
| 2003-05-12 |
| Brigitte Bardot, French film goddess turned animal rights activist, was quoted yesterday as criticising the "Islamisation of France" in her latest book. The tabloid France Soir said Bardot, who has been fined twice for inciting racial hatred, made the comments in her book A Scream in the Silence. "I am against the Islamisation of France ... For centuries our forefathers, the ancients, our grandfathers, our fathers gave their lives to chase all successive invaders from France," the paper quoted her book as saying. We might disagree on how sucessful they were at chasing invaders out, but you can't disagree with the point she is trying to make. The comments are likely to create a stir in France, home to five million Muslims, where the rise of radical Islam in schools has already sparked a heated debate over the wearing of the traditional Muslim headscarf in the country's secular schools. Brigitte Bardot.........Sorry, I was lost in..........thought, yeah, that's what it was, thought. |

| #3 At first glance, it's tempting to give two cheers to Bardot for saying something that most Frenchies don't have the guts to. After all her ridiculous PETA-like politics, maybe she's not so bad afterall. Unfortunately, she is that bad. Look at her wording. She is nothing but an elitist, nationalist snob. She gives a bad name to critics of Islam and will probably only make it harder for other more sensible people to do so. It's not just that it's not PC. It's downright stoopid. She's a radical-idiotarian and there's no cause for celebration when she accidentally winds up on the right side of an issue. In fact, it's cause for cringing, as if you found Michael Moore had suddenly become a spokesman for a cause you support. |

| #2 Bardot's main... ahem... beef with the Moslems is that they slaughter lambs in a not so nice way. Remember, she cares about animals, not people. |
