I need to be honest and acknowledge that my thoughts may be influenced by the fact that I do not have any respect for France, Frenchmen, French culture, etc.

Awwwwwwwww. They like you, Grouchy. Note headline in right corner. "We Are All Americans". (Sent to my French niece-in-law from back home.)

Tell them I appreciate the thought but would prefer that they forward it on to someone like ralph or jello.

I have a fondness for several kinds of cheese, but that's about where my affinity ends.

That "We Are All Americans" nonsense was just grandstanding then, and "Je Suis Charlie Hebdo" is just grandstanding today.

Christian and other American charity has been donating to Africa and sending expertise and aid workers for as long as I can remember and I'm 65 so my remembering is about 50 years .

I noticed that terrorism came to a screeching halt as a result.

I appreciated "Hands Across America" ending world hunger, too.
