Is this Star Trek Avatar Day in Yahoo Answers? Captain Picard can do no wrong, no matter what country he is from. You will notice, no one boycotted the Statue of Liberty, which was a gift from France.

Picard sounds British, which is Patrick Stewart's nationality. Though his name and character were the from France, I don't think another detail had anything to do with France, so no. I think Jerry Lewis movies were closer to that boycot list.
Peace!

I even have my very very own boycott happening right here in Luxor and need than different answerer's who're in touch interior the tourism industry will do what they could to help it . the quantity of so noted as Egyptian souvenirs that are made in different international places especially China, is amazingly remarkable and that i've got faith it reflects badly on our united states of america. maybe interior the buzz of turning out to be the acquisition vacationers do no longer think of to study the label or locate out the place it replaced into made. yet decrease back interior the inn or while they are abode after their holiday in Egypt. Many could desire to be very disillusioned to confirm their prized souvenir of their holiday in Egypt is categorised as being Made in China. those imported souvenirs are quite flooding places like Khan el Khalili and the recent more advantageous Luxor Bazaar. I even have spoken to the countless stall and save proprietors who all declare that that's all that the warehouses are stocking these days. So maybe that's time the Egyptian government greater effective the import cost lists in this type of goods. I now recommend human beings to word of this and circumvent making such purchases. For there is actual a much greater effective determination. by way of procuring for his or her souvenirs on the honest commerce Centre's the travellers could be certain that the products they are procuring are one hundred% Egyptian made and that the money is going promptly decrease back into the community. by way of procuring at those no longer for income retailers they are helping the close by people who artwork making the souvenirs the two from their residences or in a community based workshop. The honest commerce Centre's additionally practice human beings in countless crafts placing out up new employment opportunities. This has been one way that the individuals of Gurna village have controlled to outlive. The citizens have been relocated by way of the government to a sparkling village some distance away, while the village of previous Gurna replaced into demolished for archaeological excavation interior the direction of final twelve months. So, that's my boycott and luckily i'm no longer on my own in this attempt to create understanding of an determination to low high quality imported "Egyptian"souvenirs. i wish all people who's interior the placement or has the prospect will additionally connect in this attempt to strengthen and shelter the livelihood of many city and semi rural Egyptian families.

Although Captain Picard is a frenchman, he was played by Patrick Stewart who is from the UK thereby bypassing any need for a boycott!
Patrick Stewart is HOT!

The USA didn't boycott France. It was just the right-wingers here who did.
Don't confuse them with the United States - the two have nothing in common.

Yes. They put one of those blue dots over his head in all the episodes. But still aired the darn things anyway. Viewers thought it was a new character.
