Look those up and then come back and discuss France's place in world history. Wow, that's really impressive. Not. Try to keep up, please? We weren't talking about France's "place in history" -- we're talking about their national behavior in World War II, their current status as a former world power, and their current role as the butt of much disparaging humor in America. why exactly am i suppose to be disparaging france? this seems to have started after they said they were not going to fight in iraq without real evidence that iraq was making nbc weapons it sounds to me like i supposed to flush two hundred years of friendship and mutual struggle down the toilet because they were right about iraq does that sum it up correctly Pretty much. Nothing like having a handy French Fleet to bottle up Cornwallis on a penninsula. How would things have turned out if the French were not on our side in the revolution? We'd probably be speaking English right now if they hadn;t! Oh wait. Bertie The word yer lokin fer is "commonwealth" As i the imperial power raping the other country? Sounds better than "chattel" I suppose. Bertie Are ya saying the uglies in britain coulda stopped shrub? |
