I'm super stressed for tonight! And when I'm stressed, I blow up. I said to myself: WHO is best placed to talk about the France-Israel match? I'm a ball, I have no bias! WHAT is more neutral than me? No matter who pushes me, I roll where they push me.
And it's the same for all balloons. Except for my rugby colleague. Him, he always bounces any way… A blow to the right, a blow to the left. The rugby ball is Macron's position on the Middle East.
And I take this opportunity to remind the supporters: taking hits, guys, it’s my job! The kicks, the headbutts, I take them on myself so you can let off some steam!
Because tonight is tense… Have you seen the number of police officers mobilized? 4000 police officers! That’s still a lot to keep an eye on Nicolas Sarkozy! He will be in the stands. Macron said “I’m going there to show that we’re not afraid!”, then Sarkozy and Hollande said “We’re coming too!” So all the politicians want to be there: Barnier, Retailleau… We broadcast the match on The Parliamentary Channel and then we put Alain Duhamel in the comments.
Every day we learn of the arrival of a member of the government. If I were Barnier, I would take advantage of half-time to organize a Council of Ministers.
Let's not lose sight of the fact that basically, it's just sport… And that if Israel occupies the field, it will only last 90 minutes. And that the land does not extend to the West Bank. Because I don't know about international law, but in sport, THERE ARE RULES! Foul, yellow card, re-fault, red card, you go out. Netanyahu took 35 cards and the guy is still on the pitch widening the penalty area. That in sport is NO! You know that Léa, you are the sports specialist! Well tell them!
Otherwise for me, it's the same every time, I find myself at the center of geopolitical conflicts but leave me alone. Shall we ask Pierre Haski his opinion on Didier Deschamps' composition?
Elected officials requested the relocation of the match. No question of doing like the Belgians. They didn't bother, the match against Israel was organized in Hungary… What's more, the match took place behind closed doors! Even though they don’t even know how to pronounce it “behind closed doors”…
Ah I swear, these Belgians, always using subterfuges to avoid conflicts… Yes yes, you see very well what I'm talking about… (due to the fact that I am dressed as a balloon to address the subject for example.)
Anyway, humans are stupid enough to turn a game into a war…
4000 police officers? We don't have the budget to put a teacher in front of each class but we will put a cop behind each supporter. So when I see the behavior of some people, I find it frankly unfair that it's me who ends up in the cage.
