Frederick Posted May 23, 2011 Share Posted May 23, 2011 It now seems opinion has changed in Paris . I suspect by now the embassy has reported back with the facts and they have been well read . How are the USA authorities likely to view an request for him if convicted to be returned to France to serve is sentance after all the concern that they would never see him again once he got home to France ? “It seems obvious that if DSK, assuming he is convicted, asked to come to France, the French government would support his request,” said Claude Gueant recalling how Application of the transfer agreement between France and the United States, “that allows a French condemned the United States to serve his sentence in France.” Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Frederick Posted May 24, 2011 Share Posted May 24, 2011 How about this for a defence ? DKS phones for a call girl to come to his room dressed as a " French maid " .....

idun Posted May 24, 2011 Share Posted May 24, 2011 Frederick wasn't that already mentioned that he could have been confused about who was in his room. However, if this lady was wearing a hijab, well I actually find it pretty sick and peverse that he would want a call girl to wear one. Casual sex after all is against the muslim religion. I assume that one can request call girls to wear what the client wants, but this?I can't think of a religion that I like the sound of, but I do realise that some religions have rather strict rules. Couldn't this woman after all could be stoned to death in some muslim countries for being raped? or being a victim of attempted rape? or just having casual sex?

[/quote]France Info this morning have repeatedly used the expression "col de la blouse" in their newscasts; the addition of " cul de la blouse" is a natural progression from a term alluding to "fellation" to a term alluding to "sodomy".There was no intention expressed or implied to introduce humour into the post; the predicament of DSK is amusing enough already.The french media have to date pointedly avoided any reference to anything other than fellation; however this is not the case with the north american media.If you cast your memory back to the Clinton Monica episode you will remember that the two variations enjoy similar criminal penalties. Whereas in france fellation would not be rape.No attempt at humour at all. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
