Stupid French People

The truly stupid catering to the wholly inept fed by the ignorant.

I will say this about this stupid cow ... I have an interest in Edith Piaf, thanks to someone I knew, and watching the media about this woman winning an oscar, has made me think of that someone again. I should therefore see this movie sometime.

And while we should never generalize about the French, particularly given their close friendship with the US (now), it is a country that thrives on conspiracies. A best selling book in France was about 9/11 - and conspiracies. They are as a group (with exceptions) fools.


In the meantime:

Actress Marion Cotillard sparked a political row yesterday after accusing America of fabricating the 9/11 attacks.

The 32-year-old French actress, who received an Oscar last month for her performance as singer Edith Piaf in La Vie En Rose, openly questioned the truth behind the terrorist atrocity in an interview broadcast on a French website.

"I think we're lied to about a number of things," Cotillard said, singling out the 2001 attacks on the World Trade Center as an example of the US making up horror stories for political ends.
Referring to the two passenger jets being flown into the Twin Towers, Cotillard said:
"We see other towers of the same kind being hit by planes. Are they burned? They [sic] was a tower, I believe it was in Spain, which burnt for 24 hours. It never collapsed. None of these towers collapsed. And there [in New York], in a few minutes, the whole thing collapsed."

She added that the towers, planned in the early Sixties, were an outdated "money-sucker" that would have cost more to modernise than to rebuild altogether, which is why they were destroyed.
