You’d think that Jerusalem has enough unique tourist attractions, wouldn’t you? But no….ze citizens of gay Paris think that ze Eiffel Tower would make a fine addition to the Holy City !?!?!

To mark the 40th anniversary of Jerusalem’s unification, the Paris Municipality will grant Jerusalem a smaller version of the tower, which will be erected on Paris Square in the Israeli capital.

French cities have a tradition of offering presents to sister cities across the world. In 1885, the French presented the Statue of Liberty to the United States as a gesture of friendship between the two nations.

We could all think of some alternative gifts we’d rather have from the French, like maybe a little more support in the United Nations? But a gift is a gift, so I guess we have to do the polite thing and say “Merci, beaucoup.”

    2. The support Israel receives is proportional to the strength and actions and forthrightenss Israel displays.

    When Israeli diplomats and politicians are on tv, they come across as apologetic and and guilty.

    Israel has to change itself back to the strength it used to display, only then will major nations such as France begin to support.

    People love winners – they do not want to be associated with those displaying themselves any other way.

    Comparing the way Arik Sharon use to conduct himself to the way that Olmert does shows the difference.
