CHERBOURG, France (AFP) - French President Nicolas Sarkozy said Friday that Europe's security was "at stake" because countries like Iran were increasing the range of their missiles.

Iran puts European security 'at stake:' Sarkozy

Consider that a major battle won.

That's news I'm not so sanguine about.

Sarko won't be in power for ever and france is still in grave danger of becoming froggie arabia.

I don't like the idea of there being more nuclear weapons in mohammedan hands than there are already.
