President Sarkozy gave a news conference in Paris.
Sarkozy: France has a zone of influence in Haiti. The American occupation is an affront to France. Therefore I order the Americans out.
Fred the unShred: Won’t that lead to chaos?
Sarkozy: America spreads chaos wherever it goes. Look at Iraq.
Fred: American casualties were zero for a month for the first time.
Sarkozy: That is American. You destabilized the Middle East.
Fred: Not safe for nail board wielding sheiks?
Sarkozy: I am not here to debate Iraq but Haiti. We can not tolerate an American occupation of Haiti. They must go.
Fred: And bring back all the Haitians in America too?
Sarkozy: Of course. Haiti is their country.
Fred: But won’t there be chaos in Haiti?
Sarkozy: They are free to choose.
Fred: Like the 100 car burnings a month.
Sarkozy: Who tells you cars are still burned in France?
Fred: Search cars burned France.
Sarkozy: I do not do searches in English.
Fred: Well try voitures flambées France or voitures brûlées France.
Alors que l’année 2005, marquée par les trois semaines d’émeutes dans les banlieues, avait été qualifiée d’exceptionnelle (45 588 véhicules incendiés, dont 10 000 pendant les émeutes), la tendance est restée globalement défavorable, très loin des statistiques évoquées en 1999 par le chef de l’Etat. Encore 44 157 voitures brûlées en 2006, 46 814 en 2007, un peu plus de 40 496 en 2008 et probablement plus de 40 000 en 2009, si on en croit les premiers chiffres rapportés par Le Figaro.
Sarkozy: I do not believe in Le Figaro.
Fred: Looks like Haiti is in France already. By the way, 365 days times 100 per day is 36,500. So its over 100 per night in France that are burned.
