Petty day.

The story is simple.

Tomorrow is the D-Day in France where we celebrate the landing of the Allies on Normandy’s beaches leading to the defeat of the Third Reich. Like every year, emotional and official ceremonies will take place in Normandy itself with the heads of the countries who were the Allies (all English speaking and/or in the Commonwealth but for France).

Well almost all the leaders actually because Nicolas Sarkozy is now officially the biggest arsehole in the history of France after Pétain.

Sarkozy belongs to this right-wing breed of politicians we called "American dogs". He’s desperate to become America’s right arm and that was quite easy with a man like George W. Bush because they shared the same visions and politics so all he had to do was to come and fawn all over him and wait to be petted.

But now it’s Obama and it’s slighty more difficult (ie: impossible) to do so because Obama knows where Sarkozy is standing. He knows Sarkozy truly believes George W. Bush was a great man and he knows that the French President now wants to meet him to fake it, to fawn as well and tell him how wonderful he is. So basically, Obama doesn’t give a toss.

So Sarkozy came up with a plan. He learned his lesson after the last G-20 summit where Obama talked to everyone but him. So he decided to invite Washington but no one else for the D-Day. This way, he can have him for himself.

But it went terribly wrong because Washington unofficially complained to Paris through no-diplomatic channels about the Queen not being invited to the ceremony. They tried to avoid a major crisis and call for Sarkozy to fix the problem. But before he could act on it, he was asked by journalists why was the Queen not invited to the ceremonies.

He could’ve said the truth but no. In a pathetic attempt to hide it, he said: “The D-Day is a Franco-American matter. The Queen can come later”.

The Queen is actually the only one among all the heads of states to have known and lived the WWII. She was there. She was in London, she was working as a mechanic for the British Army under the bombs because she refused to leave her people who was scarifying so much to save the world from Hitler.

The United Kingdom was the one and only country in Europe who never collaborated in any way with Hitler, never surrendered anywhere in the world against him. It sheltered all the governments and resistances from Europe, gave them money, weapons and supported them until the end. Without Britain, the D-Day would have never existed. It was possible because that small island was here, so close to the Third Reich, resisting against a whole Europe who was now serving Hitler, and could be used as a giant training and stocking base for the Allies armies.

And their Queen doesn’t get invited at the D-Day because Sarkozy decided to rewrite history and use the sacrifice of hundreds of thousands of men for its own interests?!

This is the pettiest, most appalling, ludicrous, pathetic, outrageous behaviour I have ever witnessed from a head of state in my life!

The only good side in all of this is that he wanted to be alone with Obama who now actually won’t have dinner with him privately but will spent a night with his family.

And Sarkozy will now have to entertain all the people he didn’t want but was forced to invite to avoid a huge diplomatic crisis: Prince Charles and Camilla, Gordon Brown, the Prime Minister of Canada and Australia, the Head of Quebec and officials from India and many other countries that were Allies because they have been in the Commonwealth.
