French Intifada: Don't Believe The Pictures
In her piece today about our traditional American images of Paris versus those of the recent riots, Diana West has perhaps uncovered a learning moment for the French:
Maybe the best comment on the French Intifada came from French Tourism Minister Leon Bertrand: "You get the impression that France is awash with flames and blood, which is not at all the case," he said. "You cannot deny the images, but there are images and images."
Gee, M. Bertrand--that statement might very well apply to Iraq as well. In fact, if events proceed at their current rate I wonder if Iraq might soon have a more dynamic and representative government than France.
Nahhh....
