The French are perhaps the only nation wishing to be neutral in the War on Terror. At least the Taliban had the balls to pick a side.

France is not neutral; France is now our enemy.

French authorities released seven men - one French, one American and several Algerians - whose names were found to be on US watch-lists. The seven men were all due to board a flight on Wednesday and had been briefly questioned

The freeking French fairies. What they need is an attitude adjustment that's been overdue for 250 years. A nice earthquake which topples the Eiffel Tower might fit the bill...and believe me, I'm being kind in this one.

They are, without a single doubt, the most useless group of people on the face of the earth.

>>US officials said they fear Air France has been infiltrated by Islamic extremists and have criticised French co-operation in providing details of passengers on US-bound flights. <<

WHEN are we going to get tough with the Vichy scum?

Hopefully, since GWB is not happy with them, he'll think of something.

However, a French interior ministry spokesman said little evidence of a terrorist plot had been found.

The sentence is incomplete...let me finish it!

"However, a French interior ministry spokesman said little evidence of a terrorist plot had been found...AFTER we made sure to tip off all the terrorists! After all, we LOOOOOVE the Islamazis!"

There, that's more complete!

They would cheer any disaster that came our way.

Would we have let the Japanese fly commercial aircraft to the US?

The most telling thing the Frenchies said today was that the Tunisian pilot was in Tunisia and had no plans to leave. They said this even though he was booked on one of their flights. I know the Frenchies are not that totally illogical thus they were looking for excuses to take no pro-American action.

The face and the belly would have to be "that close", so it must be a 'match' - :)
