Regime Change
American deity Oprah Winfrey was shocked last week when a Paris boutique refused her entry to their store.
Just because it was after hours is no excuse for not catering to the whim of a celebrity. Did they not realize she is what Dostoevsky called an "extraordinary person," a super human above the petty societal restrictions "ordinary people" must follow?
If the refusal to kill Iraqis wasn't sufficient rationale for regime change in France, this should provide the necessary justification for the Bush Administration.
After all, wasn't this insult of far more import than the one that started World War I?
