Sure they do as they worship Napoleon, even thought they lost in it. Ironic that a Corsican pretending to be French would end up a hero there.

Hitler was an Austrian pretending to be German.

Stalin was a Georgian pretending to be Russian.

And Obama is a Kenyan pretending to be an American.

“In this age, in past ages, in any age, Napoleon”
