#16  We bailed the French out in WWI and WWII. We protected them against the Soviet Empire. And for our effort they spat on us and continue to do so. As far as I'm concerned THE FRENCH ARE ON THERE OWN THIS TIME.

#15  And if they fight back, the spin is: it will escalate.

France's version of Twisted Sister"

#14  Haha. Trying is the key word.

#13  The French should adopt the San Diego police approach: shoot first, shoot often, and shoot to kill. Cuts down on lawsuits, bad publicity, and recidivism.

#11  Ah, sorry SR-71. I mistyped - it was Sleaper's comment #6 that I was really responding to.

#10  Seems like Fwance has a much better use for their UNIFIL forces at home.

#9  LOTP - I don't understand your point. Clarify?

My comment meant that France will probably cease to exist as country with French culture and character.

#7  Won't / can't work that way, SR-71. This is an internal issue of French identity - they could have dealt with it but didn't.

#6  SR-71, don't worry. They've always got the Americans to bail their silly little asses out.

#5  I am beginning to believe that France will not make it back from this one.

#3  Maybe we can ask the lelft this question

Treating the Islamic Colonisation of France as a police matter is a total failure. Therefore will treating Islamic Terrorism as a police matter be a success?

#2  Aw, c'mon. They're police, tasked with the very un-police-like task of suppressing an insurgency. I bet they'd love to use grapeshot just as much as we would.

#1  When they learn how to defend themselves I'll feel sorry for them.
