Sarkozy Starts His Own Club Med
Apparently the world needs more unions.
French President Nicolas Sarkozy launched a 43-nation Union for the Mediterranean on Sunday to help countries -as the French P puts it- ”learn to love each other.” Sarkozy says:
“Everyone will have to make an effort, as the Europeans did, to put an end to the deadly spiral of war and violence, that, century after century, repeatedly brought barbarity to the heart of civilisation.”
Yup that’s the Europeans for ya -after World War I and World II ofcourse.
The AP reports that there was no handshake and Syrian President Bashar al-Assad appeared to go out of his way to avoid Israeli Prime Minister Ehud Olmert, hiding his face behind his arm as he walked past where the Israeli leader was standing.
International leaders can be such three year-olds can’t they?
