France takes it back?

Is France no longer willing to use force if Saddam unleashes chemical/biological weapons?

"His protest call to Foreign Secretary Jack Straw came as Paris had to clarify remarks by its ambassador in Washington that gave the false impression that France would join the fight in Iraq if Baghdad used chemical or biological weapons."

I remember when all this started and France started *****ing about it somebody important, I think it was Condalisa Rice, wasn't giving it much attention. She said something like they always complain but when things actually happen they'll come around. I guess we have experienced people running the show.

Angry France STABS us IN THE BACK?

I hope our memory in the future is better than France's loyalty in the recent past...

Just face it: this was their golden opportunity as a third-rate political power to try and re-achieve some dominance in the European & world forums. A chance to return to the lost Glory of Napoleon?

I hope we never let them forget it.

No, no wait! We really DO need France!

We need them to cater all the victory celebrations we'll soon be having.
