Airstrip One

You think I do conspiracies?

So how's this for tasteless? James Taranto from the Best of the Web:

Might it be noteworthy that the French are claiming almost the same number of deaths from the heat as America suffered on Sept. 11?

Do you remember the stupid claims from Arabs that there were no Jews in the World Trade Center on 11th September? I thought that this was evidence of (a) ethnic hatred and (b) stupidity. But American neo-conservatives (sic) are allowed to get away with this tripe.

It's not that the French are going to publicise governmental incompetence just for the hell of it.

As Steve Sailer (who says that this sort of thing is perfectly likely) puts it best "Does anyone else find Taranto to be a hate-filled moron?"
