I forget which American showed up at a rally in Paris and said “Lafayette we are here,”

Granted, they are publishing cartoons everyone else is afraid to even show when they do news stories about them, but let’s not get ahead of ourselves. We still have the death penalty, and one of their right-wing politicians was banned from the rally for suggesting they should bring it back.

Meanwhile, French Muslims are blaming the terrorist actions on the Jews, especially shape shifting ones..

I'll give France some credit when they kick out the Palestinian Authority representatives and apologize to Israel for their decades of stupidity. Since that's not going to happen, I'll remind you of that oft quoted joke that for a time those rifles were indeed held before being dropped. Today they hold them, tomorrow they'll get around to dropping them again.

Because at the end of the day, NOTHING is as appealing to the French than to also blame the Jews. Perhaps they won't think of shape shifting ones, but it will always be the fault of the Jews. To think otherwise is racist (yes, I've actually heard people say that...)

The ad for the never fired dropped once rifle is an utterly ignorant joke. And utterly unjustified.

The French had about 1.3 million soldiers killed in WWI, compared to the british 875k.
In WWII, in the battle of France, the French lost about 85,000 compared to the British losing about 10,000. The Germans lost about 150,000 dead and wounded and 28% of the Luftwaffe.

In WWI the -tea drinking- surrender monkeys love to talk about the miracle at Dunkirk. That’s where they ran away from their side of the salient and left the French on their own.
And does anyone remember Singapore? That was where 85,000 Brits surrendered to 36,000 Japs.

The French fought long and hard and the Collapse was the result of a new warfighting strategy the Nazis used. The whole world was unprepared.
The only French who can be fairly slandered were some political leaders, but not their soldiers.
It is dense to slander the French military.
And also more Germans surrendered than French.

The American Left is sympathetic to Islam in its attack against liberty and Christianity.

As far as I’m concerned, most are afraid of Political Correctness more so than Islam.

They among others owe us a liberation and I hope to be able to thank them.

Your premises are not terribly accurate
I’m sure the French sleep better knowing you love them

Contempt is strong word

Not to mention the fact that the French seem light years ahead of the rest of Europe (or even the US) in recognizing the threat posed by Third World immigration and trying to do something about it at the grassroots. Compare how much publicity and how many votes LePen gets in France with the invisibility of Tom Tancredo.
