Question

Why do the French blame Rory Emerald for all their problems?

Answer 1

I think that it is because the French like to blame the United States for their problems, and Rory Emerald is, on a worldwide basis, the most recognizable symbol of the United States!

Excellent Question!!

Answer 2

He was naughty indeed when he painted the Eiffel Tower green but that's our boy!  

(I fear that Moyra does not share our interest in the mega-wealthy and always interesting Rory,Baron of Sligo.)

Answer 3

Because Rory Emerald is the only person the French know that is responsible for anything.  NO Frenchman is ever Responsible for anything, so Rory Emerald gets the responsibility.

Answer 4

Because they have never forgiven poor old Rory for painting the Eiffel Tower emerald green.
