The French canal pilot is said to blame Bush and Chirac. No doubt the first reaction of most Frenchmen will be to blame us. How long will it take for the true state of affairs to set in? Some time longer, I imagine.

It's only human to blame the other guy first. But if bad times persist, then it's time to re-evaluate. I don't expect the boycott of France to end anytime soon. Personally, I think only the shedding of French blood alongside ours on the battlefield can undo the damage Chirac has caused. Words will mean nothing.

You are right. WE pulled their a$$es out of the fire in 2 WW's and then get the kind of treatment they give us? I hope the boycott stays in until the average frenchie starts to rethink their whole attitude towards us.
Let them live off the tourist money from moslems... opps, there isn't any.
