So who might this be then - a man so dangerous that the French police sent no
less than 85 gendarmes to arrest him, handcuff him, and drag him off,
according to local news reports there. Could it be Saddam Hussein, or Osama Bin
Laden, who was so terrible a theat it took a small army to arrest him? No worse
than those two, it was Mr Bove, the French farmer in S E France who has been
attacking McDonalds. As I was told of this incident by family living down there, I
couldn't help wonder, how many company directors, having say defrauded the
pension funds of millions, probably having taken more than the amount of damage
Mr Bove has ever done, would also be led off in handcuffs by 85 gendarmes?
