Well, compared to France, that is probably true.

This is the same nimrod who visited a Holocaust museum with a map showing the number of Jews exterminated by the Nazi's in WWII, broken down by each country in Europe. His question:"Why doesn't the map show the number killed in England?"

I wonder if France realizes they're now part of Iran's coalition of the willing. Interesting this comes out today in concert with France volunteering to send troops for the so called international peacekeeping force. I wondered why they were first to the line to volunteer considering their yellow stripes- maybe little-man Ahmadinejad told them to do so.
