Foxman receives highest French honor
Let me guess..The Not Too Bad for a Jew award?
Abe Foxman, National Director of the Anti-Defamation League (ADL) received the French Legion of Honor from French President Jacques Chirac in a ceremony held at the Elysee Palace in Paris on Monday.
A statement released by the Anti Defamation league says that the award, the highest military and civilian honor given in France, “was given to Foxman for his lifelong service to combating anti-Semitism and prejudice, and for working to build bridges and understanding among nations and people.”
But the biggest joke – besides the words “French” and “honor” appearing in the same sentence – is Foxman’s response.
During his acceptance speech, Foxman thanked President Chirac and the French people for their “strength, moral courage and friendship to the Jewish state and people.”
Nice going, Abe. You just continue to kiss French tushie while targeting the real anti-Semites of the world.
Update: Here’s an example of the French showing their “strength, moral courage and friendship to the Jewish state and people”:
Commanders of the French contingent of the United Nations force in Lebanon have warned that they might have to open fire if Israel Air Force warplanes continue their overflights in Lebanon, Defense Minister Amir Peretz told the Knesset Foreign Affairs and Defense Committee on Monday.

ADL is a paper tiger – their response to anti-Semitism at UC Irvine is to write “stern” letters and request meetings with the administration. They actually came out against suing the university administration for not properly protecting the civil rights of Jewish students on campus!

There are for sure some real antisemites in the world, but You are becoming a real fascist, believe me… Not sure if your great grand pa’ and ma’ would have appreciated that… Think about it.
