I was young, myself at that age. He was someone who did the righ tthing for his country - and never should have been raked over the coals for it.
I will NEVER forgive John Warner for stabbing him in the back in `94. Wrote Ollie in back in `96 and `02. Probably will do so if Warner runs in `08.

If the world really knew how much France has been involved in selling wmd stuff to Iraq/Iran/?, the boycott of France would be awesome.

By the way, where is Col. Hackworth lately? I used to see him all the time on Fox & Friends, but it's been quite awhile since. Wonder what happened? I would think with this Iraqi situation he'd be all over the place.

It'll show up on a hard drive or drives somewhereI have heard that the Iraqis are meticulous record keepers. I doubt if they have enough shredders for this job.

You assume that the copies the Iraqis are giving to the Frogs are the only copies. SOP in this situation is to keep copies to sell to anyone who might be interested, such as us. While swearing up and down to the French that they have exclusive rights.
Furthermore the SOP is for the Iraqis to fabricate more documents implicating not merely the French, the Albanians, the Belgians, the Czechs, the Dutch, the Ethiopians, the Germans, the Hungarians, etc., up to the Zambians (I don't know if any country's name begins with the letter "Y", though).
Why should the Iraqis involved tell the French the truth? How can they trust the French to keep their promises of asylum, etc.? And stop laughing.

Ollie North: French diplomats and inteligence agents assisting in destruction of Iraqi documents If this is true, why should anyone be surprised? We already know the French built a nuclear reactor in Iraq, that the Israelis were nice enough to destroy.

'Yemen' ... and Cock Chiraq has probably made weapons deals with and through them also, for his butty, Saddam. The al Samoud missiles were already excess because the frogs had supplied materials for a better version that Saddam was producing. Upgraded scuds ... Israel is going to be mad as he!! when the truth comes fully forward.

good job!
To: concerned about politics
Just heard on FOX 15 more nations are joining the US against Iraq? They're comming out of the woodwork. Just goes to show that when one decides to lead - step up and do the right thing - people tend to follow. Leadership "by committee" just doesn't work. That's why the U.N. is such a disaster. Putting two-bit countries like Cameroon and Angola on the Security Council is as idiotic as having your town put fifth-graders on the school board. Giving veto power to has-been countries like France is an even greater blunder.

All I want is Jacques Chirac brought up on chages of crimes against humanity through collaboration with Saddam Hussein. Mee too. ...But I bet that he gets a Nobel Peace Prize instead.
