Unbelievable. This is wrong on many levels.

"Unbelievable. This is wrong on many levels."

You got that right. The first level is calling Chirac's comments congratulations. Its a pure insult.

Chirac reiterated that France was ready to "cooperate with Iraq, especially by training security forces and senior civil servants."

Funny, I don't recall the Iraqis asking the French to "train" them in the proper etiquette of waving a white flag...

"French Foreign Minister Michel Barnier told the Europe 1 radio station Monday that he and the rest of Chirac's government "don't regret anything" over the way they acted in relation to the war.
"

If the Americans had listened to you, it would have never been possible for Iraqis to have a real election.

If we'd left when the French demanded there would already be 1,000,000 dead Iraqis in civil war.

I just started reading "America's Oldest Enemy: The story of America's disastrous 300-year relationship with France".

It's a must-read for anyone who wants to know just how treacherous our "dear allies the French" have been over the centuries. They are backstabbers, whether they happened to be Bourbons, revolutionaries, Jacobins, Bonapartists, republicans, Vichy, or socialists.

It started with France's terrorist attacks against New England and Ohio Valley American colonists, included Vichy traitors shooting at our soldiers in North Africa during WW II, and continues through today.

No wonder Gen. Patton said he would rather face two German divisions in front of him than have one French division behind him.

Monsieur ChIRAQ, fermez la bouche!

I extend my middle finger toward the east, in recognition of Paris' efforts to aid and abet terrorism.

Maybe after a couple of years of occupation and re-education, the French will be ready to have free elections of thier own!

"We said what we believed and we are looking straight ahead," he said.

If they look anywhere else they'll see what asses they are.

"the strategy of terrorist groups partly failed,"

That's when I would've hung up...

"The French Betrayal of America" by Kenneth Timmerman is also a good read.

Hey France, at least we arrive at a solution. You just sit in your own crap for centuries and think the drifting aroma is perfume.
