#1 Why is it that a dictatorship has to label a group as terrorists before France will do anything? Don't get me wrong, they've done the right thing in this case. But, they'll take down these guys, and try to justify Hamas.

Does that make sense to anyone but the French?

#2 The MEK uncovered the existence of the Iranian nuke facilities last year in Natanz and Arak. Just last month they discovered two small nuke labs connected to the facility in Natanz.

Also, Iran told the Australians last month that they would not be willing to hand over any Qa'ida boys, much less identify exactly who they have in custody, to the US, including Saif al-Adel, unless the US delivered Massoud Rajavi to them.

#4 What, did they run out of crippled, 80-year-old Bitish veterans? God forbid they might zap a striking socialist or two. (Not that I'm a fan of the zapees in this case, just tired of the French in general.)

#5 I just want to know if they smiled as they were rounding them all up? Don't want to jeopardize that Iranian tourist buck."Bonjour!Into ze wagone wit you..."
