To say that France’s social model is far from perfect is an understatement: in spite of the state absorbing more than 50% of GDP, France has suffered, since the 1980s, from rising child poverty rates, persistently high unemployment, a chronic sense of economic malaise, and the continual enrichment of the system’s “insiders” at the expense of the system’s “outsiders.” More importantly, France’s social model fails to deliver precisely what it proclaims to: economic justice, inter-generational fairness, economic opportunity and social protection, particularly to young workers entering the labor market, minorities, immigrants, middle-aged women and other vulnerable groups.
France TV 2 has lost a major court case in France that makes the lie to a major piece of Palestinian propaganda. In 2000 an incident occurred in the Palestinian areas that has since been used as propaganda for the Palestinian cause all across the world and the New York Times has repeatedly been a willing host for this propaganda. Now, however, it has been proven that France 2 perpetrated a lie that has given succor to terrorism. And where is the New York Times with this momentous news that proves Israeli innocence? Nowhere to be seen.
France 2 lied, people died.
Well, that means they aren’t taxing the people enough, obviously.
You have to know that when the first three words of the sentence get it totally wrong, it just doesn’t bode well for the rest of the piece.

Shit man. I can’t wait to try it here. Come on November.
Another fucking narrative they got right, another bunch of facts that they got wrong.
– I thought that was their chief export “fucking rhetoric”.
“There isn’t enough room for it all. Please spay or neuter your rhetoric.”
– Just one more piece of inhumane rotten yellow journalism to throw on the pile, and yet more cause to detest the slime buckets that infest the old grey bitch.
– The question you have to ask yourself is do they hate Bush more than they give a damn about the Jews, or do they even give a fuck they’re trafficking in the worst sort of propaganda that can, and often does get innocent people killed.
– And then we get to listen to people like SEK that defend the snot nosed crap weasels on the Left piss on Tony snows grave. Sometimes you just have to believe theres no fucking justice in this world, and hope they get truly nailed in the hereafter.
The world as seen by France.
[…] social services have some problems. Plus, France 2 TV admits they lied on behalf of the Pallies. That leaves the BBC as the last broadcaster to stonewall on that item, I […]
