From "Ibn Rushd" in Paris: "He's a right-wing playboy and carpetbagger who is the biological father of Marion Marechal-Le Pen, Jean-Marie Le Pen's grand daughter and rising star of the far right.
He fought briefly with the phalangists in Beirut in 1976. He described them as fascists in his book.
He supported the Iraq War and went on TV saying Abou Ghraib and Guantanamo were no big problems because Arab political culture is such that these are minor problems, details, and that they only understand force.
All other French reporters hate him, call him a fraud and a mercenary who works for the highest bidder. Indeed, he had right-wing tendencies but he was mostly looking for money to pay for an expensive lifestyle.
The real scandal, which has not been touched upon in the press is the following:
- either Sarkozy knew that Auque was a Mossad Agent when he made him a French ambassador, and this would be a major scandal
- or Sarko did not know and this would also be a scandal in terms of French Vetting of its senior diplomats."
