Does anyone remember? On this date 90 years ago the first World War's bloodiest battle began. The Allied army would lose over 60,000 soldiers in one day and France would lose over 200,000 before the battle ended. After four months and over one million soldiers dead the Allies gained five miles of real estate. Hooray for the soccer team, but don't forget the men who died in a bloodier conflict for more then just global bragging rights.

Sorry, I hate the French. After what the Allies did to save their butts during two wars, (technically three including the after-effects of Vietnam), and the huge loss of life to accomplish that. Later, within the last 5 years, those sorry, pieces of dirt turn around and sell armaments to the very same people we're currently fighting.
Nope, no compassion here. We have thousands of men buried on their soil and they walked on their graves.
As far as I'm concerned, they can kiss me where the sun doesn't shine.
