France Surrenders Again

  • PARIS (July 27) -- France has declared war on al-Qaida, and matched its fighting words with a first attack on a base camp of the terror network's North African branch, after the terror network killed a French humanitarian worker it took hostage in April.

    The declaration and attack marked a shift in strategy for France, usually discrete about its behind-the-scenes battle against terrorism.

    "We are at war with al-Qaida," Prime Minister Francois Fillon said Tuesday, a day after President Nicolas Sarkozy announced the death of 78-year-old hostage Michel Germaneau.
Well gee, welcome to the war - 9 years later. This will last about a week before the Paris slums start rioting in earnest for the autumn car-burning season and France will once again surrender.

Don't jump to conclusions. The French people are 'tolerant' up to a point. They have forced their government to do a 180 on Burkha's and are coming down hard on groups that refuse to join French society.

The French, like almost every European country have a long history of either expeling or 'eliminating' unwanted minority groups. Just ask the Hugonots.

Given the past century history of the "cheese eating surrender monkeys" I can understand your natural cynicism. Perhaps it is better to note such as "better late than never" and encourage them to stay the fight instead? Just a thought.

The French will do a better job of ridding it's country of troublesome residents like the Muslims than America will ever do of ridding it's country of illegal aliens.

The last one to surrender.

France has a tough time with the liberal anarchists that want no government in place. Free shit to the immigrant that doesn't want to speak the language and hates French culture. C'est la vie.

Read "A Savage War of Peace". It vividly tells the story of the French Paratroopers in the Battle of Algiers. They won in the city but lost the countryside. They used torture, repression and small scale tactics. The author, a British historian, avers that since the end of WW II the French Paratrooper is among the finest fighters in the world. They suffered from an overabundance of bad generalship in Viet Nam. As always it is the politicians who fuck things up. I would bet that the paras still use those tactics that were beneficial to them in Algiers.

My Dad was a WWII Vet and hated the French till the day he died.

I asked him why and he told me that "Any group of people who could forget what we did for them in WWII eleven minutes after it ended are worthless excuses for human beings".

The French talk tough, but when it comes down to it, they capitulate better than they fight.

Does Geico or AllState sell car-b-que insurance in France? We may yet see the French go "Israeli" on Al-Q. The Israeli philosophy being: "what you can't do with force, you do with more force!"

The French will immediately surrender to the Taliban, form a puppet Taliban government and then surrender to America like they did before. Remember British General Amherst "How can you trust a race that fights with their feet and makes love with their face?"

Nous sommes les hommes des troupes d'assaut,
Soldats de la vielle Légion,
Demain brandissant nos drapeaux,
En vainquers nous défilerons,
Nous n'avons pas seulement des armes,
Mais le diable marche avec nous,
Ha, ha, ha, ha, ha, ha, car nos aînés de la Légion,
Se battant là bas, nous emboîtons le pas.

La Légion marche vers le front,
En chantant nous suivons,
Héritiers de ses traditions,
Nous sommes avec elle.

Pour ce destin de chevalier,
Honneur, Fidélité,
Nous sommes fiers d'appartenir au 2 eme REP

some of my family member just got back from a vacation through Europe. they all said "never felt so scared/intimidated" as they did in the subways in/around Paris. now, I am talking about family members who have taken the subways of Chicago, and New York. France has a huge problem with slums, and people who live in their country, but have no respect for it. A LESSON FOR US TO LEARN FROM!!!!!

Mon Dieu. The ignorance of the typical reader. France has been in the fight against the Taliban since day one. French soldiers have been serving in Afghanistan, and doing well. They perform better than the NATO contingents. When I was in la belle patrie back in November the news from Afghanistan was on every night and it was very favorable towards carrying out the war and killing as many talis as possible. This new war on Al Qaeda focuses on carrying the war into North Africa. If nothing else, my forebearers were very good at killing North Africans, something many Frenchmen want to get back into. Even if they have to kill them in Paris, Grenoble and Marseilles. Enough with the French bashing already!

We are forever linked to France. France financed our Revolutionary War and sent soldiers, ships, generals etc. to help us win our independence. They stepped up first.

True they hated the British and saw our revolution as a chance to stick it to the Brits and we had our share of disagreements with our French supporters but the fact remains, they helped a great deal in there being a United States of America today.

We have paid that debt repeatedly in the intervening years. I have a brother I never agree with but he is still my brother.

On every July 4th we should remember that French blood was also shed in our fight for independence.
