War & Peace: USA Supporter Says It Is Nuts for French Media to Present Trump as "Reeling" and "Desperate" While Iranian Leaders Are Described as "Celebrating"

Twice last week, Philippe Karsenty was invited to discuss the Iran war on BFMTV (click for video) where he suggested that it is bonkers for France's mainstream media to suggest that simply because he was no longer issuing an ultimatum to Tehran, President Donald Trump was "reeling" in the conflict with the Ayatollahs. Another subject for discussion was Lebanon, where a French soldier was seriously wounded and by the time he had been shipped back to France, he had died.

The previous night, the spokesman for le Comité Trump France had been on BFMTV (click for video) where he pointed out that it is bonkers to refer to the Iranians as celebrating as they observe Trump as being allegedly "erratic and desperate": "We don't even know what the Iranians [those who are still alive!] are saying to each other."
