haha i cant pretend that i didnt laugh at some of the jokes.
there is no argument that france does not have a poor military history, even the french people on this thread admit that...but that does not mean france is a worse or less respectable country for that. I've been to Paris, didnt find it anything too special, but i also didnt notice any obtrusive rudeness, most of the time at least. but i also went to Normandy, and that was where i was impressed. An aging french man started talking to us and he said "we know that all you Americans think we French hate you. In fact, some people in Paris do. But Parisians do not represent all the French. Here, we still remember that you saved our lives."
In conclusion: honorable French people are just as honorable as honorable Americans, and despicable French people are no worse than despicable Americans. There are the fair share of Americans who look down on the French for being pussies, based on their military. There are the fair amount of French who look down on Americans as being cocky, selfish idiots, based on Bush. Both are egregiously wrong.
