This is reminiscent of Neville Chamberlain's efforts to "reach out" to Adolf Hitler and the Nazis during the 1930s.

Back then, the Brits, like the French today, banked on making concessions in order to gain "Peace for our time."

Now, like then, it is doomed to failure and will only serve to embolden the evil enemy. Just watch and see.

Socialists like the French despise common sense.

Yeah...and how soon before the "youths" allies in the Islamic Jihad crowd start sending them RPG's and AK-47's?

Paris could fall within a week. I heard on an ABC radio blurb that "public" (read government) buildings have now come under attack. While Jack CheeseRack and his minions pledge more social spending and programs...their Krystalnachkt..(spelling?).. rages all around them.

Meanwhile Churchill was pleading

Still, if you will not fight for the right when you can easily win without bloodshed; if you will not fight when your victory will be sure and not too costly; you may come to the moment when you will have to fight with all the odds against you and only a precarious chance of survival.

There may even be a worse case. You may have to fight when there is no hope of victory, because it is better to perish than live as slaves.

US and British forces will NOT be landing at Normandy again. The French will have to save themselves, or perish
