Le bon vieux temps des croisades

L'AFP en parle ( http://www.lemonde.fr/web/depeches/0,14-0,39-37259687@7-60,0.html )

Le Monde aussi ( http://www.lemonde.fr/proche-orient/article/2008/10/13/a-saint-jean-d-acre-des-affrontements-remettent-en-cause-la-coexistence-entre-juifs-et-arabes_1106144_3218.html#ens_id=1106055 ) en commençant son article par " Depuis quatre jours la cité des croisés est sous tension ". (C'est Gottfried Stutz qui le souligne en utilisant les caractères gras).

TF1 ne râte pas le coche ( http://tf1.lci.fr/infos/monde/moyen-orient/0,,4119390,00-juifs-et-arabes-s-affrontent-depuis-3-nuits-a-st-jean-d-acre-.html )

France 2, chaîne publique, fait plus fort ( http://info.france2.fr/monde/47412329-fr.php )

Mais qu'est-ce qu'ils ont tous à parler de " Saint-Jean d'Acre " ?
Est-ce que vous imaginez un Italien parler de "Lutetia Parisiorum" ?
Dans les deux cas, c'est un terme inventé par des occupants.

C'est Acre tout simplement !

.. very good points GS! Thinking about them made me want to add another bit: It is, I would argue, imperative to be political in order to be a true humanitarian. It's not enough to feed the poor, as celebrities often try to advertise doing; it is much more important to work on reversing the reasons that made the poor poor in the first place -- hence being political. Claiming to be a humanitarian without being political is simply cashing in on the prestige associated with the term, without actually doing anything or, as in the case of celebrities, enduring any heat that accompanies being a real humanitarian. Don't call yourself humanitarian if you're not willing to pay at least a small part of the price.
