Comedy French accent

Haaretz, an Israeli newspaper, published the story that France's foreign minister said,
"I honestly don't believe that it will give any immunity to Iran. First, because you will eat them before."

When he said eat he actually said hit. Trying saying hit with a French accent and you exactly where the mistake came from. It remind me of a joke from the EU parliament where the Spanish stormed out after someone said that it was not working because there was a Spaniard (Spanner) in the works.
