France, running from a fight? Say it isn’t so!
Yet another FAIL for “smart diplomacy.”
This guy doesn't like Obomba and paid close attention to how our one-time Eastern European allies were treated by the scum who would be president!
Now why aren’t I more worried about this?
A minimalist approach:
minimal help
minimal hope
minimal friend
He's just following Obama’s lead really...
This is news?
This probably marks the end of coalitions with the west.... as obama veers and takes us into marxism and its allies. Maybe Chavez will be the leader of the next coalition?
I think the French are realists. Perhaps I’m naive about the nuances of “war” these days, but “police actions” in areas where there is no law, and “nation building” in tribal regions with no notion of nationality seem like escapades designed for failure: even more so if our namby pamby tactics lack any hope of effectiveness.
Our CIC is throwing the fight, whatever the heck the fight is , and it is no surprise that our allies want to get out of the ring.
Layer on top of that the suicidal PC attitude the Europeans have adopted towards the immigration and demographic invasion of their sub-continent by the enemy - a case in which the term “realist” can be used only in the most cynical of manners - and I think the chances of counting on them to really fight this enemy with the ruthlessness required to win the larger “war” are nonexistent.
Europe will soon be Moslem. In essence, they have already submitted. Who there wants to go on record as the enemy of the Moslems?
While I understand their lack of faith in Obama, this is still a stupid move by France.
Failure in Afghanistan means the reintroduction of terror training camps. As such, the “youth” violence in Fance would become more intense.
He won’t even send his son to help out? awwww
The FRench Foreign Legion used to fight well.
shame, what a waste of all that talent and energy
Which reminds me, the graphic of the bunny wearing a pancake should be put on leave temporarily and replaced with a pic of Obummy with a waffle on his head.

I don’t blame him one bit..he isn’t pulling out...he is putting the ball in Obama’s court and the Afghan government to show me don’t tell me.
What parallel universe am I in where I trust the French President more than I do my own?
The Obama coalition is coming together.
He’s right. I wouldn’t send another soldier either as long as our sissy-in-chief is “crafting the strategy” there. Who wants to be on the side that loses?
That’s a finger in the eye of Obama. Sarkozy doesn’t like him. It’s obvious Carla doesn’t like MO either.
Just wait until this Lisbon Treaty is ratified and then we can count out the Brits as well. The Europeans are complete deadbeats.
Wow! Obama is really rallying the world around a common cause with his diplomacy! /extreme sarcasm
