Thanks, Blogger. Funny, but since the google buyout, there have been more and more problems. Just adjusting to a new setup, I hope. If google can't make Blogger more reliable, rather than less, one wonders whether they're as good as advertised.Here, for the second time, a shot at the French news:
Le Monde: Iraq: March 17 the "moment of truth". But with all the chatter about the UN, one wonders if Le Monde has actually read its own headline.
Le Figaro: The picture shows Blair, Bush and Aznar, but the headline just mentions one of them: Bush's ultimatum to the UN, namely that it start doing the things august international bodies are supposed to do, like standing by their own resolutions, etc. One wonders if Milosevic would have been so cavalier about UN and EU action if he had seen something out of those two bodies other than an eagerness to toady to Saddam, lest he let word slip that they weren't doing anything about him.
Libé: UN observers in Kuwait cease operations so they can hightail it out of there before things get ugly.
