Whats the difference between the French Resistance and the Iraqi Insurgancy?

Question

Isnt the so called 'elected' puppet Government in Iraq, the same as the German installed Vichy Regime in France? And looked what happened to the Vichy Government

I wish people would READ the question, not hear their own opinions

Answer 1

You have a point there. The current Iraqi government relies exclusively on its direct support from the US military. Without this support, it is likely their government would collapse and be replaced by another government that more closely resembles the culture of the Iraqi (and Iranian) people. Democracy is not really in the vocabulary of the average Iraqi; therefore, it is a foreign concept to them.

Answer 2

The French Resistance didn't target their own people at the rate of the "insurgance".
Iraq has had 3 free elections and wrote their own consitution. While the Vichy were told what kind of government and there was no public vote on it.
Germans were there to stay.
We want to turn it over to the Iraqis and leave.

I will give you F+ for you grasp on history.

Answer 3

i respect this each and anytime the range of Iraqis useless mysteriously is going up and as a lot as state 650 thousand iraqis were killed by technique of coalition forces is an complete fabrication on your "LOADED" question the Resistance whre scuffling with adversarial to a dictator. The iraqi resistance you communicate about are quite Al queda who're not Iraqi and then bathtub get collectively die hards who kill all non sunni muslims there's a democratically iraq authorities elected by technique of the iraqi inhabitants (vote casting figures the position higher than for any western election i comprehend of) Iraqi forces administration maximum of Iraq verify your information

Answer 4

It seems very similar, but it isn't. The Vichy regime was installed. The people in Iraq actually voted for their leadership. We did not install them and there were candidates for office over there who our government would not want as leaders. The US supported the ones they wanted just as we have other governments(France, Russia and Germany to name a few) who supported certain candidates in our last presidential election.

Answer 5

The French resistance was getting invaders out of their country who was doing their country harm so they could return to their original government. The Iraqi insurgents are Iranians coming in and teaming with Shiite to overthrow the newly formed constitutional government all in the name of religion. The only way you can compare it to the french Resistance is if the resistance was working on the side of the enemy to overthrow its own original government. Then what you have is treason.

Answer 6

The Maliki government WAS elected. The 1st elected govt in Iraqi history. Have you forgotten all the purple fingers?

Answer 7

I hope you know the answer to your own stupid question. The french resistance fought against the nazi murders from Hitler's on down while the insurgents in Iraq are nothing but filthy demonized alquida bastards. they have been brain washed against democracy and the west much the same as you assuredly are brainwashed with your dumb analogy.

Answer 8

The Iranians, the Hezbollah, the al Qaeda. I do not recall their involvement in the French resistance.

Answer 9

Yeah right, Saddam was the rightful Democratically elected President of Iraq? And the Iraqi people just loved being gassed and tortured by Saddam?!?

Get a clue.

Answer 10

The French resistance was mostly misfits and communists
