Yes, I was surprised that the French carrier actually made it that far without a tow.:-)

But they need a military pride thing badly, as their public needs to be pacified and anger misdirected away from the French government's failures.

What happened to France creating Security Circus II, Victory to Iran, the sequel to the popular Security Circus, Victory to Saddam which came out in 2002? I thought the De Gaul was positioned to stage operations into Afghanistan?
