Jacques Chirac and Kofi Annan decided not to send in firefighters... say France should pray for rain.

Who cares?
Those of us who hope the war on terrorism is being won (although it's way too soon to assume terrorism).
Assuming it's not terrorism, then how about: Those of us who don't like to see historical/beautiful things/places destroyed.
I think the Frogs are as pathetic and untrustworthy as anybody. And I'd even go so far as to say "better them than us" given the effort we've put into this war and all of their attempts to thwart it. But I won't let that make me completely callous, I hope most others feel the same.

You are pretending that the French / France is on our side of the war. So far there is no evidence that they are...

Eiffel Tower webcam here - looks like fire trucks! "Live images back soon"!
To: commish
could be a lot of deaths or injuries of tourists up there.Yes, there could be. Very inadequate elevator system on the tower. Worst day of my life was when I was stranded on the tower waiting for an elevator with a crowd that was pushing and shoving so badly I almost had a panic attack. My daughter, who lived in Paris, explained that Europeans are not as polite as Americans are and have a different concept of personal space...in other words, they shove each other around all the time.

I don't find this amusing in the least. I would be as distressed to see the Eiffel Tower destroyed, as I would to see the Statue of Liberty destroyed, or any other famous building or monument around the world - the Transamerica Pyramid in SF, the real pyramids in Egypt, the Golden Gate Bridge... This is not amusing at all.
To: William McKinley
*Singing*
"We don't need no water, let the Mother ****** Burn! Burn Mother *****! Burn!"
I think that song may be appropriate for France at the moment.

Seems a bit early for the Lance Armstrong Victory Party to get underway.

If it is determined that this was a terrorist attack, I am completely opposed to France striking back in any way.

Should I be having mixed feelings about this? I certainly do not want any harm to come to any people. My own feeling aren't mixed at all. I hope the landmark tower remains intact, and pray that there are no casualties.
