"And you believe there is a difference?"

Yes I do. I have some French friends and they're not all bad. There's a a lot to like about some aspects of French culture and life. Not all of course, and plenty not to like also, but they are part of Western civilization as opposed to militant Islamofascism which I don't care for at all.

There are plenty of militant Islamofascists in France with French citizenship who are most likely the ones caught in Iraq etc. I don't consider them real Frenchmen. There are also French men and women who are not leftist cowards. Some even like America, liberty and believe in the superiority of Western civilization and culture.

Of course some French people are also jerks like some of our own leftist, treasonous, perfidious citizens.

In addition, there are things about American culture that are also less than perfection. Plenty of our culture is pretty trashy and low brow (not that I don't like some low brow trash myself sometimes).

But yes (or oui) I am pretty damn disappointed in the French lately. Merde!
