lebel:
right now i support the bush administration insofar as they have not invaded iran yet. there you have it.
ncb: france has used its military to "intervene" in many conflicts--mostly in places that were at one point french colonies. most of these "interventions" have been in africa---chad, senegal, etc. these actions ahve been for the most part deplorable. but talking about them does not fit into the simple-minded world in whcih someone like richard perle could generate talking points about france at the start of the present bushwar in iraq that continue to shpe the uninformed, unreflective positions of people like yourself. these talking points only work if you know next to nothing about the matter at hand--your goofball post about france threatening military action against syria---which would fit the pattern noted above (do some research and you'll figure it out).
more generally:
it was curious to see that i had an afterlife in this thread once i had to go do something else in 3-d. thanks.
