Can you Boycott these French Products......? Feb 02, 2006
I certianly can't..!

And so I'm extremely glad the owner of the French paper Soir fired the editor.......

I'd have to stop driving my PEUGEOT and using my Motorola.... and more importantly my ARMANI fragrance & bathline and my wifes Dior, would have to go into the bin....!!

The editor has save the Arab world smelling of armpits....!!!


VIVA LA FRANCE ..... VIVA LA FRANCE


French editor fired over cartoons

The editor of a French newspaper that printed cartoons of the Prophet Muhammad has been sacked.
Jacques Lefranc was dismissed by the owner of France Soir, as his paper became embroiled in a developing row between Muslims and the European press.

<<snip>>

The row intensified when France Soir, alongside the 12 original cartoons, printed a newly created cartoon on its front page showing Buddhist, Jewish, Muslim and Christian holy figures sitting on a cloud, with the caption "Don't worry Muhammad, we've all been caricatured here".

Publications in Germany, Italy, the Netherlands and Spain also re-ran the Danish cartoons on Wednesday to show support for free speech.

However France Soir owner Raymond Lakah, a French Egyptian, said in a statement to AFP news agency that he "decided to remove Jacques Lefranc as managing director of the publication as a powerful sign of respect for the intimate beliefs and convictions of every individual".

"We express our regrets to the Muslim community and all people who were shocked by the publication."
