I want France, Germany, Russia and India – for starters – to show the guts of Poland, Albania, and Bulgaria; all of whose fighters' footprints are in the sands of Iraq. I want them to send troops, not with demands, but with apologies for not having been there in the first place, shoulder to shoulder with America in a crusade every bit as righteous as the Allied effort in World War 11.

Me too....sigh

France?

The troops in Iraq are in temps at 120 or more with bullet proof vests, kevlar helmets, BDU's and boots, with 40 - 100 lbs of gear and so far we know of only 1 sadly, who may have died from heat. Yet in France 13,000 have died in a heat wave.

And France wants to be involved in the desert?

I have 2 words for France it is a request:

GO AWAY!
