Hold it. France blocked NATO from giving Turkey Patriot missiles for defense, and now they are telling Turkey not to allow overflights?! That jumped out at you too, huh? Makes sense, actually. We wonder how that nation can forget the substantial debt owed to the U.S. and the U.K. for bailing them out twice in the last century, and here the French demonstrate that what happened a few *weeks* ago is water under the bridge.

Isn't that their point? French gov't is now an enemy of Americans.

His Original post was EXACTLY THAT! A stupid search. I was pointing that out. It is only now that you point this out. You had previously not said so. Indeed you had said rather that he was making disingenous posts.... disingenuous, not stupid.
I am, however, pleased to see your amendment.
Happy night.

The extremes ChIraq is going to, sugest he is a very worried man.
He has been dealing with Sodamite for 20 plus yrs. Sodamite must have tons of filth on him by now, all of which will come out if Sodamite goes down and Sodamite will have made that very clear.
So ChIraq is facing becoming a world pariah, if his old mate falls. He will go from hero to zero in a NY minute.

Yes, there is! It is on the southeast side, near the airport. There is another huge facility in Saginaw.
I hope your friend likes it here. I think this is the best part of the state!!

Fuque the French!

I am reminded of a very patient hunter, who waits until the prey sticks his head up. I think Chirac has a bead drawn on him.

Here is a novel idea. Let's start sending boxes of white flags to France, maybe they will get the hint.
To: Dog
If the Turks value their friendship with Chiraq more than with America... well, they can make their choices and take their chances.
There are a lot of Turks in Germany, and I noticed the Turkish soldiers carry German G3 assault rifles. If the Turks are trying to get on Germany's good side, they should recognize that the CDU is coming back into power; if they really want to do what's in their national interest, they should try to improve relations with the pro-America Christian Democrats.

The Turks are free to choose. There will be consequences for their choice, especially if we lose toops due to their actions.

We are in the industrial distribution business, and one of the products we represent was manufactured by the vile frogs after an acquisition from a NYSE company.
Shoddy products and QC, has resulted in a melt down in a chemical plant that we do business with which will probably result in serious litigation, as their response to this problem is almost non.
Fortunatley for us we sold the product as a manufacturers representative, and never held title to it, but that is another story.
I honestly think that the vile frogs are at war with us in their own cheese eating monkey ways.
Let's cut the Ile de france bstrds loose until hell freezes over!

The French and the Turks go back - way back when Turk Muslims got a free pass from the French in destroying Christian culture in the South Eastern Europe and dispatching more millions to death.

the G3 is the NATO standard.

I think it will come down to France promising to pay suicide bombers to attack the US. We have had enemies in the past, and France is an ENEMY of the US! It is all about OIL.

I think this has been the story from day one. That Cheese Surrender Monkey needs to have his attitude readjusted.
To: Dog
I repeat: Chirac may be receiving Iraqi millions into a secret bank account.
His behavior is very strange, helping a psychopath to triumph.

So is Saddam blackmailing Chirac, or are the Clintons? I'm only half kidding. I know you are only half kidding. You cannot blackmail Clinton. He has no morals, so he thinks everything he does is fine. His motive is a desire to see the US weakened.
Chirac? Blackmail? Maybe, but as a wise one said. . .FOLLOW THE MONEY!!!! I hate France enough now to send my dixie chicks CDs over there.
