The French Foreign Minister is in town in an effort to improve relations between France and the sh*tty little country.

French Foreign Minister Philippe Douste-Blazy on Wednesday said France opposed “unilateral decisions” regarding the future borders between Israel and the Palestinian areas.

Douste-Blazy was in Israel for the launch of “Voila,” a season of French cultural events seen as an effort to improve shaky French-Israeli relations.

And what better way to improve relations between the countries than by criticizing the Israeli government’s plans.

Speaking at a joint press conference with Livni in Jerusalem, Douste-Blazy reiterated the French position against Israeli unilateral action, instead calling for negotiations between Olmert and moderate Palestinian Authority Chairman Mahmoud Abbas. He complimented Olmert for saying he was open to negotiations and said now was the time to turn those words into actions. Unilateral activity could strengthen Palestinian extremists, Douste-Blazy warned.

“It’s unacceptable that a border declared unilaterally would be accepted by the world,” he said.

Accepted but unacceptable. By definition, anything accepted by the world is unacceptable to the French.

“We are currently operating with two key words: unity and determination of the international community,” Douste-Blazy said at a hospital in southern Israel.

I have two key words for Mr Douche Bag. But I won’t repeat them here.

    Somehow I doubt that Israel needs any “culture” (or anything else) from France……
