The french are ungrateful cowards who should thank God every day for the courageous Americans who shed their blood so THEY could live free. Face the facts- the ONLY reason the French and Germans are backing Saddam is for the big contracts they have with them. I like what -- General George S. Patton said: "I would rather have a German division in front of me than a French one behind me." or -Norman Schwartzkopf "Going to war without France is like going deer hunting without your accordion."
