I can't figure out the details/reasons yet, but my gut agrees that AQ is funded somehow by France. Arghhh......

"France is funding AQ. I'd wager on it."

Assuming that the above is true, the only reasonable explanation I could come up with is that the French have been blackmailed by AQ, much like the Saudis.

Some time ago, back when the invasion of Iraq was being stymied by the French et.al., the idea of treating France as a rogue nation was being debated here on FR. A freeper pointed out then that France was a good allie when it came to sharing intelligence on terrorists. Obviously that is not the case now (if it ever was).

I will not be surprised if I see France and the US in some type of conflict within my lifetime, with the US fighting the French directly ("The 3 Hour War") or through a proxy (have at it Germany--3's a charm and we promise we'll sit this one out.).

I wouldn't take that bet, not in a million years! We should break diplomatic relations with France, imo. Not that I think that would wake them up, or even that I would want to wake them up. I don't. But we might as well start preparing the world for what's coming . . . WW4 -- with France on the wrong side.
