Another thing North America can learn from Israel

Another thing North America can learn from Israel

A story in the JPost includes this nugget concerning the cheesemakers' ambassador to Israel:

Araud has come to a country where he said the people love to hate the French, and where he alleged cab drivers toss French passengers out of their cars when they discover their nationality.
Whether or not the allegation is true, that's something taxi drivers in North America should consider.

As to the veracity of the allegation, I have no way of verifying or refuting it, except that we all know about the French exercise of truth in the case of Captain Alfred Deyfus.

Of course, france sadly lacks a new Emile Zola to expose publically the Shameful France 2 Al Dura fabrication, which is one of the worst media fabrications of the twentieth century.

Leaving the journalistic and diplomatic rhetoric (:historic mistake" FPM Michael Rocard; s****y little country" Fr Amb to UK Daniel Bernard), France get 80% of its electricity from nuclear power plants. Israel supports the oil trade. No engineering talent in Israel? - or no political will in Israel? This is not a trick question.

Politically speaking, France has a better history in supporting Jews than the UK or Germany.
