Refusing as usual to see any tragedy involving Americans (or capitalists) as …tragic, while magnifying every one of their own (alleged) misfortunes — as well as any adversity occurring anywhere, so long as it is allegedly the result of misdeeds committed by clueless Americans and/or by evil capitalists — one Frenchman, a leader of DSK's fellow socialists, calls Dominique Strausss-Kahn's arrest and downfall the equivalent of September 11, Patrick Roger reports in Le Monde.
Pour les députés socialistes, c'est comme si le ciel leur était tombé sur la tête. « C'est notre 11 septembre [2001] à nous », confie un responsable du groupe. Tous sont totalement abattus.This follows a tradition in France and Europe — especially among commentators, intellectuals, and cartoonists — of trivializing 9-11 and making inappropriate references about 911…
And in this case, the false analogy leads one Le Monde reader to react:
Le 11 septembre 2001 : 3 000 morts ce jour-là, et innombrablement plus par la suite (Afghanistan, Irak...). L'affaire Strauss-Kahn : une victime certainement, et peut-être deux, car quelle que soit l'issue du procès, la carrière politique du directeur général du FMI semble singulièrement compromise. En tout état de cause, zéro mort. Le responsable du groupe socialiste à l'Assemblée nationale qui a cru bon d'affirmer que l'affaire Strauss-Kahn, " c'est notre 11-Septembre à nous ", manque du sens des mots, du sens de la mesure et du sens de la pudeur, tout simplement.Edouard Reichenbach

You actually make it seem so easy with your presentation but I find
this matter to be actually something that I think I would
never understand. It seems too complex and very broad for me.
I'm looking forward for your next post, I'll try
to get the hang of it!

I was wondering if you ever thought of changing the layout of your website?
Its very well written; I love what youve
got to say. But maybe you could a little more in the way of content so people could connect
with it better. Youve got an awful lot of text for only
having one or 2 pictures. Maybe you could space it out better?

that service? Thank you!

Hi there this is kind of of off topic but I was wanting to know if
blogs use WYSIWYG editors or if you have to manually code with HTML.
I'm starting a blog soon but have no coding know-how so I wanted to get guidance from someone with experience. Any help would be greatly appreciated!
