FRANCE-AWARD-CHIRAC-CHIDIAC


French president Jacques Chirac congratulates Lebanese television journalist May Chidiac after awarded her as knight in the "Legion d'Honneur" order, 03 May 2007 at the Elysee palace in Paris. Known for her open criticism of Syria, the 40-year-old journalist, dubbed a "living martyr of freedom of speech" in the Lebanese media, was seriously wounded on September 25 when a car exploded in her car north of Beirut. She had a leg and hand amputated and has undergone some 20 operations since the attack which drew widespread international condemnation. The bombing went unclaimed and the perpetrators have not been arrested. She only returned to Lebanon on July 11 after undergoing a series of operations in Paris to attach an artificial hand and leg.
