One small voice in the proud tradition of FreeBlogging*

French news headlines:

Le Monde: Iraq: George Bush beseeched to "rediscover" UN. The Senate passed a non-binding resolution asking him to ask the UN and NATO for assistance in Iraq.

Libé: Avignon Resigns Itself to Pulling the Curtain - as the strikes against festivals continue.

Ouest-France: Avignon, latest victim of the strikes. No word, however, on what the unions and performers will do for income, having used their moment of maximum exposure to march in picket lines rather than prancing on stage or set things up for those who do. A tragedy, truly, for the towns, for the tourism industry and for all those who are, knowingly or unknowingly, trading in their income for a chance to be part of the left's effort to shut down the Chirac-Raffarin regime.
