Oh no you don't.

The onus is firstly on you, bfree, to show why you're so keen to consider them enemies.

Apart from the sick pleasure of an anonymous spray of hate on the Internet, that is.

What, other than supporting people who want to kill us-Iraq, Iran, Lybia? They sold weapons to Lybia -missles that sank one of our ships. Denied Pres. Reagan's request to allow our planes to fly over France. Gee, I don't know why I might not consider the French our friend- maybe you can enlighten me with your worldly wisdom.

Ill show you why we shouldnt be friends with the french; we give them space technology,but they wont buy our cars. Try this one,pulling out of NATO in 1966 as part of a KGB sting? This is a personal favorite;not letting F-111's fly over France because they feared Libyan retaliation for the strike,and after the denial of flying rights,suffered the same Lockerbie type attack in the Chad desert 6 mos later by the same people they were afraid of offending!
