“We work in the dark - we do what we can - we give what we have. Our doubt is our passion, and our passion is our task. The rest is the madness of art.

Big c
you prefer france style way , it is not accepted when they forbid headscarves from entering universities as that will increase the counter reaction and will lead more womens angry and try to go back more to thier relegion.
always to be dectatorship is not good.
also if france is serious , so how come they support israel as sarkozi is a close friend of israel and the whole state was established on a relegion faith of the choosen people in the world and God as they claim promised them of the holy land and to steal the palestinians land. They have not to be hypocrates.
