Is it surprising that France's minister of defense is named Michele?
Michele Alliot-Marie says those mean old Americans are practicing economic warfare on Europe.
"'American industrialists are pursuing a logic of economic war,' she was quoted as saying in an interview with Le Monde, which the paper said had been read and cleared by her office before publication.
"'This attitude is not connected to the Iraq episode. Faced with this, European industry must regroup in order to be in a better position to resist,' she added.
"Alliot-Marie said she was worried by what she sees as moves by U.S. investors to attempt to take control of firms involved in European defence and had ordered a study into the issue."
