MONTPELLIER, France - A French artist allegedly traumatized by last week's Spain bombings was convicted of trying to run over a pedestrian he mistook for Osama bin Laden (news - web sites) and ordered to pay the man $615.

The 35-year-old defendant, identified as Pierre, was sentenced Tuesday by a court in this southern France city to a three-month suspended prison term. The man he tried to run over was unharmed.

Pierre's lawyer, David Mendel, said his client was the "victim of a hallucination" while driving Monday through Montpellier's historic center.

The victim, a man in his 30s, was able to run from the oncoming car, which crashed along the side of a street.

"If it was (bin Laden), we would have won $5 million," Mendel said, referring to a reward.

'we' is incorrect. You should say 'our previous generation', or if that applies 'my father', 'my grandfather', 'my uncle'... You wasn't even born...

Would you let the french constantly remind you that they saved your butts a couple of centuries ago??

In a nutshell: ~~to the vets and their unlucky brothers who paid the highest price for us, and to the spoiled brats who are taking credit for it without having lifted their fat az. Period.~~

I'm proud to be an American, I consider myself as an American and will glady accept all the good and bad my country has done. I know pride in your country is incresingly a foreign concept in Euroland so I wont take offense at your ignorant statement, in fact I pity you.

But anyway just to please you here it goes...

The sacrifices of Americas WW2 veterans who liberated europe seem to have been wasted, considering how euroland has turned out, weak, indeciseve, hating their own cultures and hating america....

I love europe. I'm from europe and I'm the most patriotic pan-european around. I'm just taking the left wing defintion of patriotism here though, you know, the one where you lambast, criticize, hate and think the worst of the national object of your patriotism...

Was watching Dennis Miller last night and he had a funny joke about this.

He said the driver didn't get into trouble for running over the guy because it's ok to do that but he got into trouble for taking a stance on terrorism.

If I had no pride in my country, in Europe and in my culture, why would I react at arrogant posts like yours?

I don't hate the US at all, don't go all Sherlock Holmes on me and make hasty suppositions, it will hurt your credibility (if you still has one). I went to the States in 98 and had a great time. Have you ever been to Europe or are you just basing your opinions on what others are saying? ('My daddy says that...')

I still love a lot about your country. I have the utmost respect with what your country has done in the past. I disagree with some past events tho, and I disagree with US international politics right now.

Weak and indecisive for not doing GWB's agenda? That's a bit easy mmmh?
