"And France since the end of World War II has anything to boast about, unless you think the Gaullist mixture of self proclaiming chest thumping hubris, hedonism, and cowardice, is something to be proud of."

What's your agenda, huh? Who says I'm only talking of post-World War II France? France has plenty to be proud of: from overthrowing the tyranny of the monarchs in 1789 to the valiant men who died for Napoleon to its Republican government. Granted, national pride in France, despite what you might hear on the news or in films, is really low. Leftist "values" and self-loathing are even more rampant there than here. The Arabs are just making it a hell of a lot worse.

I think there's way too much false info/stereotyping of France IMHO.
