who's on the phone?

I always said France opposes anti-semitism and fundamentalism, actually more so than the US, in France you can be thrown in jail for public anti-semitic (or racist in general) sentences.

this is totally unrelated to our international position in the Middle East.
Hesbollah is not banned because it's a terrorist organisation (it is no longer, it doesn't no longer carry out terrorist attacks against civilians neither in libanon nor in Israel, it became a political force in libanon) but if their media start spreading anti-semitic hatred they crossed the line.

You see we make a clear distinction between geo-politics in the middle-East, and real racism and anti-semitism in France. YOU should too, your side is too much involved with the Bush-administration supportive of Saoudi Arabia and the current israeli government. This is contradictory but so is the Bush-policy.

I'm sure once labour returns to power in Israel with a more reasonable program willing to work towards peace in the middle East and willing to negociate with the moderate palestinians, relations between Israel and France will be restored.
