A blogger from France posted some comments on our site about the impact the visit of a tin-pot dictator had in the town of Lourdes.
Comments by bloggers translated courtesy of Google Translate include the following:
"Fiji is ostracized by the international community and its representatives, including the Prime Minister received at Lourdes are stigmatized for having suspended the democratic functioning in 2006 by a military coup."
"It is a pity that journalists let themselves be fooled by a simple pat on the back and your hometown our good mayor and to refrain from doing their job by checking the information."
The bloggers noted the Torture Video, which had been featured in Tahitian media and invited people to make up their own minds.
"We'll let you judge, noting that, all things being equal, when Sarkozy is compromised with Gaddafi, the result was that Gaddafi Hush and Sarkozy lost."
It seems the blogger thinks the Mayor of Lourdes runs the risk of winding up like Sarkozy. If Frank read this he might like to think about avoiding the end that Gaddafi met!!
