I'm sensitive to mine, too, which is one reason I feel free to lay it on thick. French ingratitude to American blood spilt for them is a shameful cross to bear. I remember when our embassy in Iran was taken hostage, and American diplomats on the run knocked at the door of the French embassy for help. They were turned away, but the Canadians gave them sanctuary. Now the Canadians are more French than Brit.

The blood of Lafayette, the people who gave us the Statue of Liberty...? How low they have fallen.

Ping for more French bashing and humor: posts 9, 45, 57, 64,72

Please bump this thread if you like it, so others can see it, and add to it! Thanks. If you didn't see the History of French "warfare", guys please read post#9. It's a hoot!

And post #45 is a powerful article that was posted in the Iconoclast about the cowboys from Texas that saved a bunch of Frenchies pinned down during WW2.

Mamzelle, I was not aware of that incident during the Iranian hostage crisis. Thanks for posting that info. All the more reason to dislike them.

But wait, France did defeat an enemy, before:

I forgot about the French Navy sinking of the Green Peace boat "Rainbow Warrior"; finally someone they were willing to take on! It appears the Warrior is going to the Gulf to interfere with the war with Iraq. Think the French will try to stop them this time?
