(31,783 posts)I hope so. There is a sickness in Europe. My husband is an Italian citizen - he is very in tune with what is going on - he has even popped on here once or twice.
He just let out a whoop when I tod him this. He lived in Paris in the 1990's in Montmarte while he was building his body of work as an artist. This is not the France he knew. B

Ce me rend foud. (spelling? Verb?)
Mr Assad was accused of murder and attempted murder but was never tried because a court decided in 1980 that he was in a state of dementia at the time of the attacks. Medical reports said he was not responsible for his actions because he was enraged by a failed love affair.
He spent seven years in mental institutions, at one time escaping for a year.
The NF said that Mr Assad had never revealed his past to the party and had no formal criminal record. If we had known, we would have suggested that he remain in the shadows, said the partys former deputy leader, Bruno Gollnisch.
So if he had "stayed in the shadows" it would have been okay?
Please France stop their insanity of the Front now.
Before you inspire the Northern League in Italy more.
