This is to illustrate their self-rightous hypocricy and the reason Americans boycott there products and tourism. Any country that aides,supports, or harbors terrorist organizations were called upon to relinqish such relationships after 9/11 or it was there choice to become seen as an enemy of the free world.

Something tells me that the oil for food scandel is far more reaching than any of us realize. After all France and Germany were involved and all of a sudden "POOF" the story was squelched. Their support isn't far behind us I'll bet. Seems like that would be a good tool to blackmail them for their support when the time is right.

They probably did. The death of innocent people is always going to stir up a reaction. This recent news story of lebanese children dieing is probably going to unravel into a load of bull anyway. To think that no innocent isrealy children have died from the war is incredibly ignorrant. Both sides of any war loses innocent lives I wish people would realise that before they jump to conclusions and start pointing fingers.

Maybe they didn't compain because of all of the innocent French civilians who were killed by the Germans. Just a theory. All of the contries, including USA, France, Germany, etc., are guilty of a fair number of atrocities. The French had a right not to join in the war in Iraq, just as every other country had the right not to. Germany chose not to join in also, but you don't hear anybody bashing Germany over it, or threatening not to use German products. And the last I checked, Americans were still consuming/using French products, and Americans make up a good percentage of tourists to France. Only a very few actually boycotted anything French, and my bet is that most of them have given that up already.

I have a question about your question!
Why do you or anyone else care what the French think?
If it were not for the United States, protecting France in 2 world wars, they would be speaking German not French!

The French will complain about everybody 'cos they believe they are always right (when they are generally wrong, ie, selling Exocets to the Argies during the Falklands, so much for the entente cordiale!!!).

Because all the French care about is themselves. Have you noticed how they treat immigrants in France? Then they talk about Human rights
