Chirac “imputed” no such thing, he said (as even you have acknowledged in the past) that the Iraq war served to radicalise some Muslims, a statement which is incontrovertibly true. Bush on the other hand said that he was on a fucking “Crusade” if you can’t see how that term isn’t a colossal diplomatic “faux pas” which understandably sent many worrying messages to non-Christian inhabitants of the “Holy Land” then you are even dumber than I thought (and to tell you the truth I already thought you were pretty fucking dumb).
Go back and read the fucking quote, asswipe.
Chirac stated that the "mobilization" of Muslims in general had made the world "more dangerous." He's implying that they're all terrorists - whether he meant to or not. That's no different than Bush declaring that the United States is on a "crusade" to crush Islamo-fascists.
No, he said that the mobilization of men and women of Islam in a number of countries has made the world more dangerous. This statement is factually correct, because the people mobilizing are men and women of Islam. Pointing out that the members of a group share a certain characteristic is not the same thing as saying that all people who have that characteristic are members of that group.

Just wondering tigerboy if as you claim Chirac’s totally accurate factual statement is the equivalent of Bush’s much-lamented “crusade” comments why is it the only person to detect Chirac’s supposed slur upon Muslims is you? I googled Chirac’s comments for negative reaction and found none, I wonder now could this be because you are the only person perceptive enough to notice Chirac’s insult or because you are talking utter shite?
And don’t try all this “poor little President Bush is being picked upon” bullshit as Chirac is hardly a pinup amongst Muslims either (headscarves). Could it just be that the reason there’s no reaction to Chirac’s comments are because THEY AREN’T OFFENSIVE and that only a pathetic, francophobic, chickenhawk, neocon, brownnosing Bush fanboy such as you actively looking to find offence could find anything objectionable? The fact that even so this is the best you can do just shows how weak your position is.
