Here come your French news headlines:Le Monde: Chartered flights for the expelled. Fifty-hour people were put on planes and dumped in Senegal and the war-torn Ivory Coast because the country of Liberty, Fraternity and Equality found their Humanity insufficiently touching as compared to problems with their dossiers. The left is up in arms.
Le Figaro: Big Bang in the management of public enterprises. The French government isn't performing its functions as a stockholder satisfactorily according to a report by the Minister of Finance and others.
Libé: Humanitarians in war for independence. This refers to NGOs that don't like the restraints the Pentagon is putting on them for their work in the field. Quick quiz: What's an NGO? That's a non-governmental agency. What's that mean? A largely government funded association that isn't responsible to the government.
Where can I get a job like that?
