After having his house raided over the weekend, Lahoud’s gone on sick leave from his job at the European aerospace and defence company EADS. Lahoud, the company’s research director, as you may remember, is the guy with connections to the French internal secret service DGSE who gave the fake list to Gergorin, friend of de Villepin and former EADS VP, who in turn handed the list to General Rondot of the DGSE.
There is a certain circularity to all this, isn’t there?
Today Dom is facing his third vote of no confidence at the National Assembly in a year,and Sarko’s going to comment on it in the evening news (last two links in French). If I have a chance, I’ll post on that after 3PM EDT, i.e., after the broadcast is available on line.
