Thanks again for turning a rational thread about CDG transfers into a political discussion. And BTW, no one here asked for preferential treatment for US citizens...I believe you were the one who started it all by saying you were glad Americans were not allowed to use PEGASE.
And BTW, at least the US INS is equally nasty to every foreigner, regardless of skin color or origin (or so you say)...the French, German, and in fact, most European immigration authorities take one look at anyone with a passport from Asia, Africa, Latin America, or the Middle East and automatically assumes they are trying to stay in Europe illegally or are a potential terrorist...there's a reason why experienced travellers arriving at CDG or FRA immigration lines studiously avoid lines where there are a group of 'dark-skinned' passengers ahead of them.
If you want to continue having this discussion go in this political direction, take it to OMNI.
