Now that the French have been shown to be supplying information to Iraq, I wonder how much worse this relationship will get.

Regards, Ivan

[MadIvan]

Bump!

[anniegetyourgun]

It's a good thing that France is useless to us anyway.

[ICE-FLYER]

If it is proven without a doubt that they advised and supported Saddam then I say never forgive them until this generation and the next of French traitors are dead and gone. They can deal with those in the world they have aligned themselves with.....you know, the bad guys.

I think the usual one worlders will say we must repair our relationship..and businesses will speak of global economy but I'm weary of kissin' up to the treacherous.I sure as heck don't worry about the Arab street,the UN,and other things the hand wringers are complaining about.

[MadIvan]

I believe this is the proof you're looking for:

Dossier reveals France briefed Iraq on US plans

I will be very interested to see what the reaction in Washington is to this.

Regards, Ivan

Ivan, this is all nonsense. While we all boycott Perrier, the U.S. government GAVE A $9.5 BILLION CONTRACT TO FRENCH AND GERMAN COMPANIES FOR THE CONSTRUCTION OF THE NUCLEAR WASTE CONTAINMENT FACILITIES AT YUCCA MOUNTAIN.

That equals an awful lot of Yoplaits. What an absolute disgrace. At least the Brits have the integrity to cancel the French contract to build their new carrier group. Where are the balls over here?

[fightinJAG]

An opinion poll released on Friday found that 43% of US consumers were either considering or had already started boycotting French products.Make it a lifestyle to avoid French products.

The problem with the French is that they have shown themselves to be utterly, completely untrustworthy.

They did not just oppose the war. They actively sought to undermine the U.S. after it determined war was necessary for the security of the free world.

A pox on Chirac.

"relationship"

As always,
Thank you dear Ivan.

"It's a good thing that France is useless to us anyway."

Whoa, there. Who's going to cater for your troops?

[Ernest_at_the_Beach]

Tomorrow's talk shows ought to be really good!

Have you seen this from the NY Times:

American Power Moves Beyond the Mere Super

With the Times there is always an agenda behind their reporting!

and they don't seem to have any reporters in Baghdad looking for documents!

[Leisler]

Why not? They told the Serbs everything.

[ItisaReligionofPeace]

Wasn't the Yucca mountain decision prior to the French resistence to the war?

[solo gringo]

France can keep thier panty waist prissy a$$ in france.

"At least the Brits have the integrity to cancel the French contract to build their new carrier group. Where are the balls over here?"

You got to be kidding me. They were going to have the French build their new ships???!!! I am sure Newport News Shipbuilding wouldn't mind the business. I read somwhere that they have a little experience in building carriers.

Hooray for President Bush!

[Arpege92]

I can't picture Collin Powell getting angry....he comes across as very low key.

[Mark Felton]

Whoa, there. Who's going to cater for your troops? "

LaBeu?

former speaker, Newt Gingrich, said: "This is a deliberate strategy by France to create a countervailing force in the world

Here Newt is quoted, but I have read it many times in many forms, usually stated by France itself or by a French journalist, France wants to be the "counterweight" or "counterbalance" or as Newt said "countervailing" to the US.

The key portion of all these words is the same, "counter"; to be contrary to or opposing. Friendly nations do not "counter" their allies as a standard operating protocol.

France is not a true friend or ally to the United States!
