Don’t fool yourself currently France is a very bad ally BUT USA is also a bad ally since you have obama ....
Without France, there would be no USA. But yes, France does indeed behave badly from time to time. It’s something of a love-hate relationship I suppose. But today, under attack, she is our long-term friend.

I find no fault in your posts. I must agree with your comments. The French have been unjustly ridiculed for too long for political and military failures for which the US, too, has been guilty. More Frenchmen died in Vietnam during their Indochina War in the 1950s than Americans suffered in ours in the 1960s. The French took heavy losses fighting the Muzzies in Algeria and West Africa in the 1960s and much later, while we propped up illegitimate Moslem fiefdoms all over the Middle East. The French were right beside us when the barracks bombing happened in Lebanon in 1983. The French have shown themselves to be willing to actually fight and die on the battlefield with the US through the years, like the British have done. The French governments may have been craven through the years, but isn’t it time for the American people to admit the same thing about our own thoroughly corrupt and tyrannical regimes we’ve foisted on ourselves and on the world? Like Trump has said, “We don’t win anything anymore.”
