Saddam Hussein at a nuclear reactor in France in 1975. Jacques Chirac is at right in the glasses. Saddam wanted a nuclear reactor capable of producing plutonium for nuclear weapons. France supplied its Osiris reactor which was named Osirak (Osiris + Iraq]. It was being erected when it was destroyed in a Sunday strike [June 7, 1981] by the Israelis, timed to save the lives of the French scientists helping with the construction

Should a ruthless dictator be aided in his efforts to acquire nuclear weapons?

I thought the name for the reactor was "O-chirac," as in "Oh Chiraq, thank you so much for the fromage and force frappe!"

Hussein represents the terrorists.

Chirac represents the communists.

Apparently DeNiro (third from left) represents Hollyweird.

The real axis of evil.

Our President shook Stalin's hand in WWII and things changed. Soddomite did his job of containing the masses of the Murdering Mullahs of Iran. Now he is an enemy. Of course you loved 9/11, didn't you.

Nice try. Slither back to DU.

So what's your point? Rumsfield was sent to improve relations. Chirac personally facilitated getting nuclear technology to Saddam and Iraq. Do you really think people are so stupid as to not understand the difference? Even so, the grown-ups will do what's necessary to protect even idiots like you.

I think if you actually do some research instead on just linking a CNN article, you would find that we did not go over there with the intent of giving Saddam a Nuclear Reactor and 93% refined (weapons grade) Uranium to run in it. That's what Ciraque was doing.

The title of this thread is "Caption this: Chirac and Saddam at Nuclear Reactor." Your post #6 does not caption the picture -- it's hate speech, in fact.

Okay, I'll play. Let's caption your picture.

Rumsfeld: Use the strength we give you wisely or we'll take your ass out too. I only hope there's not a feckless democrat in the WH if the time comes.

Hussein thinking: "Amazing, not only does his face resemble a camel's ass he also has that unbathed smell of a camel's ass."

Rumsfeld isn't honoring Saddam in that photo. Saddam has the odd quirk of having people kiss his armpits to honor him (this is no joke).

The troll will have to try again (1 post in 3 days). Wonder what his previous posting names were.

I've got a better photo and caption:
