Yes, it was a contemptible Hostile Act.

This act will enrage the Free Iraqis. They will hunt down and kill or arrest the Iraqis who escaped thanks to this hostile act by the France. They will settle accounts with the French Wh$res who were involved. It may take years, but it will be done.

I prefer the term "unfriendly acts" - that means the hand is dropping to the holster.

It was disgusting last night, and it is worse after we had a night to think about run it over in our subconscious mind.

Doesn't this make you want to reserve a nice warm place for ChIraq and his frogs?
Like a living hell on earth.

France is doing a fine job all by themselves in getting a front row seat

Is this not an act of War committed by the French?

Since the war was basically over, probably not.

However they did help war criminals, mass murderers, rapists and torturers to escape.

That was a crime against the Iraqis survivors of the decades of mass murder, rape and torturing under the rule of those who escaped.
