Bryan: “Only France could manage to lose a war in which it did not fight”
That quote belongs to Bryan at Hot Air. One of his commenters said “Bush needs to announce an “axis-of-assholes” with France as the only member”! You know what, they are both right. Today, Chirac managed to stab us in the back, yet again!
Chirac calls for threat of Iran sanctions to be lifted
President Jacques Chirac has broken ranks with the US and Britain by calling for the suspension of UN Security Council action against Iran during negotiations over its nuclear programme.
The French President is the first European leader to state publicly that a freeze by Iran is not a precondition for opening talks. The concession to Iran seems to be linked to events in Lebanon, where there had been concern that French soldiers may be targeted by Iran’s proxy militia, Hizbollah, over France’s previously hardline stance in the nuclear negotiations.
Bryan is correct in saying “Like its backdoor support for Iraq in the run-up to that war, France’s move combined with its veto power on the UNSC all but guarantees that either a) Iran gets nuclear weapons, or b) there will be a nasty war to make sure that Iran doesn’t get nuclear weapons. ”
While France continues to rollover to terrorists, we must forge ahead! With friends like France, who needs enemies!

Actually, Poland listened to France in 1939, when France wanted to try diplomacy one last time…look what that got Poland!:roll:
The French are so terrified of the Muslims that they allowed to take over their country!

Can anyone tell me why France has a permanent seat on the security council? Isn’t it the only country with a permanent seat that was completely overrun and conquered during WWI AND WWII? Exactly how does losing every war you’ve ever fought make you worthy of having a permanent seat on the security council?
