They are more than stupid....the now place their own citizens at the same peril as us before 9/11.....what utter idiots. France has now declared "safe harbor" to terrorists.....which means, they are now part of the Axis of Evil.

[bert]

Monsieur Chirac.... You are now against us.

[mhking]

"You're either with us or you're with the terrorists..."

No matter. We can take out france en route to Iraq. I wouldn't mind seeing france annexed by us and becoming New East Louisiana.

"Hold muh beer 'n watch this!" PING....

If you want on or off this list, please let me know!

[swheats]

This is crazy, he just said that Iraq wasn't cooperating. I think this man is heading for a nervous breakdown.

[ellery]

Well, that means they're added to the list of countries whose citizens are fingerprinted and all flights and shipments are subject to waiting periods while we check manifests. If that's what they want...

French President Jacques Chirac said on Monday France would use its U.N. Security Council veto to block a resolution authorizing war against Iraq.

"Whatever happens, France will vote 'no,"' Chirac said on LCI television in his first televised interview on the Iraq crisis.

"There could, effectively, be a majority of nine votes or more for a new resolution, one which would authorize war.

"If that was the case, then France would vote 'no'. France will vote 'no' because she considers tonight that there is no reason to wage a war to reach the goal we set ourselves, that is the disarmament of Iraq," he said.

The French leader, who has led opposition to U.S. demands for Iraq to be disarmed of its suspected weapons of mass destruction by force, said he believed Russia and China -- fellow veto-holding permanent members of the Council -- were also ready to use their vetoes.

Earlier Russian Foreign Minister Igor Ivanov said Moscow would vote against a new draft U.N. resolution by the United States, Britain and Spain giving Iraq until March 17 to disarm or face war.

However, the French president said Iraq was not cooperating sufficiently with U.N. arms inspectors looking for alleged weapons of mass destruction.

"It's not for you or me to say whether the inspections are effective, if Iraq is sufficiently cooperative -- it is not, by the way, I'll tell you that straight away," Chirac said.

He also said no decision had been taken on a French call for heads of state and government to travel to New York for a U.N. vote on the new resolution. A vote on the draft resolution is expected this week.

France last week proposed that leaders of all five permanent member countries in the Security Council attend the voting session, saying it was important that decisions concerning life and death be taken at the highest level.

This is unforgiveable.

[AFreeBird]

Well, as the President said: you're either with us, or with the terrorists. And lets be clear about this; Iraq is a terrorist state.

I guess France just answered that question. FRANCE IS FOR TERRORISTS!

Translation: "We surrender".....

Chirac: "If U.S. Attacks Iraq, We Are Out Of War On Terror"

Chirac: "If U.S. Attacks Iraq, We Surrender in the War on Terror."

[capydick]

...they are out as a partner on the war on terror.

Until they need us to help them fight the war on terror. You can bet something terrible will happen on their soil in the near future and they'll look to us for assistance.

[chiefqc]

If their out of the war on terror, then the USA will not have to worry about them stabbing us in the back.

[kesg]

Bastard just said it...if we attack Iraq they are out as a partner on the war on terror.

Not that they seem to be doing much to help us to begin with, but why on earth would he say something as stupid as this? He is nuts, and he is doing his country no good.
