France and the palestinians

While fact-checking the next story about the draconian clamp-down on civilian reporting of violence, I also ran into this little jem from the Romanian Playfuls news site:

France Urges EU-Palestinian Ties
France urged the European Union to create deeper ties with a Palestinian national unity government.

Catherine Colonna, France's Europe minister, said at an EU foreign ministers meeting in Brussels that the EU should make preparations for close ties with the new Palestinian government, the Financial Times reported Tuesday.

"We have thought about what the EU's attitude should be toward this new government once it is formed," Colonna said. "From the start we should take account of elements such as contacts and funding ... We should be prepared to fine-tune this position depending on the acts of the government."

Talk about two groups of people that deserve each other...
