JEANNETTE BOUGRAB - STEPHANE CHARBONNIER : "made for each other?"
With my jaw still resting on my knees, let me just try and put together a little 'bio' of this woman. Here's
her website.
Jeannette Bougrab is, reportedly, the mourning companion of "CHARB" (aka Stéphane Charbonnier), the Chief Editor of CHARLIE HEBDO allegedly killed in the purported shootings. She is a right-wing politician (with Sarkozy's
UMP party) of Algerian descent - her father being a
"Harki" decorated with the prestigious "Légion d'Honneur".
"CHARB" (aka Stéphane Charbonnier) -
"a supporter of the Front de Gauche and the French Communist Party (PCF)."

-Served on the Board of Directors of the Union pour un Mouvement Populaire (UMP - Sarkozy's rightwing party)
- member of the Conseil d'Analyse de la Société :

"The Masters of Requests (Counsels of State), more fully maîtres des requêtes ordinaires de l'hôtel du Roi, were originally, during the Middle Ages, judges of a council convened to examine petitions lain by commoners before the Royal Household (hôtel du roi)." http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Master_of_ ... 8France%29

All in all, as you can see ... quite the sort of woman you'd imagine falling in love with a scruffy, 'politically-incorrect' communist cartoonist drawing ugly magazine covers 'making fun' of the Koran and the muslim world... Here she is (see below link), less than two days after the "terror attack which killed her companion", chatting happily away on TV about the tragedy - and severely scolding a group calling themselves "Les indigènes de la République" - who once accused the CHARLIE HEBDO folks for being
"racists, zionists and friends of the powerful"...
