| Jacques sez no sactuary for terrorists. Nope. |
| 2002-05-13 |
| President Jacques Chirac declared there "can be no sanctuary for terrorists," as he paid tribute to 11 French naval workers killed in a suicide blast in Pakistan. That's right. Except for Luxembourg. They can take one. And Canada'd like one. And Portugal's willing... "This crime is monstrous, those responsible will be punished, there can be no sanctuary for terrorrists, we have started this fight and we will pursue it, without respite, in France and abroad," the president told some 10,000 mourners at a ceremony in the northern port town. "My determination, like that of the government, is total, we will not give in to either threats or blackmail." Yeah? Let's see? Twenty says he contradicts himself within ten days. |

| #1 Of course, President Bush said pretty much the same thing, but now he's making kissy-face with the Saudis. Wonder if Chirac's got a ranch someplace in France? |
