If Royal is channeling Jimmy Carter then she is truly desperate.

echoed former challenger Francois Bayrou in saying that a boycott of the 2008 Summer Olympics in Bejing is possible if China does not act to stop the genocide in the Darfur region of Sudan

Am I missing something here? What the heck does China have to do with the Muslim Nazis in Sudan? Why don't they blast Iran instead?

The best we can hope for if Royal wins is that she sends the Liberal French’s white flag to Iran to show her anti-American support of democracy in the Mid-East.

Sudan has oil.
China is frantic to sew up its oil supplies.
Sudan has a government everybody despises, making it isolated, making it willing to deal with the Chinese.
The Chinese don’t give a crap what people do to other people in their own countries so long as they can sew up the oil.
That’s what China has to do with The Sudan.

Nor do we. Don't be naive.

Socialist candidate Segolene Royal has recently echoed former challenger Francois Bayrou in saying that a boycott of the 2008 Summer Olympics in Bejing is possible if China does not act to stop the genocide in the Darfur region of Sudan...
Wanna see the rich, tax-dodging, socialist baby machine change her tune about Sudan? Deploy US troops there. :')

"It points out once again, Royal’s inexperience and lack of depth and vision in Foreign Policy. Will a call for a boycott of Israel be next?"

I would not put it past the voter seeking left to pull an anti-Israeli stunt such as that.

Final Round of French Presidential Elections Is Wide Open

"Algerian journalist Caci Djerbib points out that, in a country with a total population of 60 million, France has one million residents of Algerian descent whose interests are also at stake in the election. Mr. Djerbib says the Algerians' greatest concern is integration – making sure that those who are permanent residents have the same rights as French citizens.
