Let us clarify ...
(1) For anyone who thinks the French are sissies, I invite them to tell a French Foreign Legionnaire (the majority of whom ARE French) to his face, or to read accounts of French fighting in Indochina, Algeria, Rwanda, and most recently, the Ivory Coast. If you cannot separate the politics from the people, you are worthless. That is like saying all Americans are lying scumbags because of Nixon.
(2) We did not "kick" anyone in Kosovo or Bosnia. Anyone with half a brain will realize quite rapidly that it was NATO airstrikes that enabled the Croats in Bosnia to fight the REAL ground war and win, and the same thing that enabled the Albanians in Kosovo to fight the REAL ground war and win. Each time, the Clinton administration did things on the cheap because they were EXTREMELY casualty-shy. If you think Bosnia is such an outstanding victory, then go read on what happened in Srebenica and Sarajevo and why the United States stood by for YEARS without intervening. If you think Iraq and Afghanistan are such outstanding defeats, there are a number of books written on the many victories of either campaign that you should read, since it is HIGHLY likely you were sitting at home on your butt watching it all on TV while REAL men were fighting the war for you.
Those of you who run you mouth without being troubled by the facts need to stop and think before you shove your leg upto your hip down your throat.

Looks like the French were right in not going (by the way, there are French military in Afghanistan). However, The French have hygeine problems and they smoke too much. Liberals like me will not hire smokers.

follow the info first. humorous how an similar republicans that attacked lack of funding are speedy to ignore who develop into those that decrease funding to the embassies. also the protection force are not police. comprehend that. no matter if or not they were. they received't purely cost right into a construction without understanding what is going on. purely as any good police officer would do. you should get a carry close of the mission earlier you could act thus. i'm curious. If infantrymen were to have rushed into the construction blind and been massacred. would republicans be saying "a minimum of they responded" or "Obama killed X infantrymen with the help of having them rush blindly into the construction"? i imagine all of us recognize the republicans would take the blame Obama attitude first.

while it is true that the french have a long history of avoiding a fight, dating back to the paying the vikings money and gold not to attack there cities, and up to there surrender in wwll and viet-nam. I am a conservative and I have to give the liberals there due, they were right about this disaster in iraq. this war was a huge mistake and i think that history will prove me right.

Would that be the military that kicked a*s in Kosovo/Serbia/Bosnia under Clinton, or the military that loses in both Iraq and Afghanistan under Dumbya? Why are you a liar, racist, uneducated and ignorant? More importantly, why do you babble about fighting while sitting on your fat gay butt in your momma's home, when you're such a hero?

It would be easier to use the Americans who surrendered the Phillipines to the Japanese.
