Step 2.5. The French complain that they weren't given sufficient deference.

Step 4.5 The French explain how, had they been consulted seriously in the beginning, no intervention would have been necessary.

Step 4.6 The French demand higher tariffs because of the debt incurred during the ill-conceived intervention against which they argued from the beginning.

Step 4.7 Reveal the presence of an Anglo-American plan for world domination.

Do you morons even know what NATO is? It's not our ally, it's an alliance that the US is part of and usually leads in times of war.
