This is a political forum that is non-biased/non-partisan and treats every person's position on topics equally. This debate forum is not aligned to any political party. In today's politics, many ideas are split between and even within all the political parties. Often we find ourselves agreeing on one platform but some topics break our mold. We are here to discuss them in a civil political debate. If this is your first visit to our political forums, be sure to check out the RULES.

ETA Announces Permenant Ceasefire
That's not the first time ETA announces a Ceasefire. The difference is that, for the first time, it has no choice : its heads are dead or in jail, it has no money and it has lost its power on the Basque people. I hope some extremists more violent than ETA won't continue the fight. Wotk -

How did people celebrate the New Year?
For the dinner : - home-made foie gras, - wild boar (killed this day), - lots of very funny cheeses, - many patisseries. With great Champagne and a bottle of Saint-Emilion (chateau Grangey) 1993. You're welcome in France for 2007. Wotk -

The war on terror is a war against Islam
You didn't attack Iraq, you attacked Afghanistan first. That was because of Talibans who had strong links with Bin Laden. It seems to be very funny on this thread to name everyone "Hitler", "terrorist", "stupid", etc. I want to try it : Ali Larijani is a nazi pimp. -

Welcome, I am French too. Unfortunately I have had no time to write a lot on this forum - and no time to teach some French grammar - but what they say is interesting because it is very different from what we usually see or hear about America. Wotk -
New and european
I am a French young man living in the southern suburb of Paris. I am crazy of French and English literature and I am very proud to have entirely read the "Comédie Humaine" (Balzac) and "La Recherche du Temps Perdu" (Proust). Since I finished it, I have known that human soul can be very dark and... -
The French need to wake up
French televisions had shameful behaviours during the Katrina mess, I am agree with you, Johnjy. I do not deny that there is a problem, but we can't compare these riots with a civil war or a fourth French revolution. Inside Paris, the situation is very peacefull. Riots take place during the... -
The French need to wake up
That's right and for two main reasons. First, US televisions do not really know the location of European cities, especially Toulouse or Strasbourg. More seriously, Paris does not burn. Even if there are riots - for domestic reasons, not for religious or political ones - the French civil war is...
