I agree. In the post-war Iraq, America and her allies need to be sure the new government and the people fully understand how France dealt with Saddam: how they coddled him, wanted him to continue ruling, and refused to liberate them.

And?

Why would we need the surrender monkeys for any military action?

Five bucks says they'll want to be the first in AFTER the conflict is over.

Good, who needs the cheese-eating surrender monkeys? It seems to me that the historical record demonstrates that having France as an ally is not exactly a guarantee of winning any war - and is quite possibly the Kiss of Death.
