    The French Connection

    And you ask us why we hate the French:

    http://www.americanthinker.com/artic...rticle_id=3592

    Excerpt:

    "France always had strong ties with Syria, deriving in part from the League of Nations mandate. But since Chirac took power in 1995, the relationship has dramatically improved. France and Syria are now tied by an “indestructible friendship”: these are Chirac’s exact words."

    Read the whole thing. It's startling to think how much France it nurturing a state that is nurturing international terrorism.

    Of course we understand that we're making generalizations. However polls seem to indicate that the clear majority of the French people are "in agreement" with their goverment on these and other issues (The US, The Israeli/Palestinian conflict, etc.)

    The Muslim population in France is skyrocketing, so I'm not too surprised at the support for some of these issues.

    Palooka... can I change my name to [AK]Chirac?? If I'm going to die often, at least some good should come from it.

    One of the reasons I thought the French did not support us on going into Iraq was they were probably suppying WMD's. I also think that they helped Saddam get alot of those weapons out of the country before we got there.

    I realize this is all speculation, however reading this article makes one wonder how deep the French is in all this....
