French PM rejects 'war on terror'
OR “The French…being ‘French’!”
They just don’t get it! :doh
PARIS, France (Reuters) -- France issued an implicit criticism of U.S. foreign policy on Thursday, rejecting talk of a "war on terror."
Prime Minister Dominique de Villepin, speaking in parliament, expressed these views on global terrorism, while President Jacques Chirac backed France's claims to the international front rank with a fresh defense of his country's nuclear arsenal.
"Against terrorism, what's needed is not a war. It is, as France has done for many years, a determined fight based on vigilance at all times and effective cooperation with our partners.”
Translation: ‘We French detest ‘war’, which is why we usually just avoid it by surrendering right away! We believe in letting others fight for us, like the Americans for example, and criticize them for doing so while we create the illusion that we are actually doing something, like sending 200 Engineers into Lebanon instead of any soldiers who are really required to create a buffer zone and end the violence there.’
"But we will only end this curse if we also fight against injustice, violence and these crises."
Translation: ‘This ‘War on Terror’ is not a military issue but a police matter!’ :shock:
-- Hmmm, where have I heard that before? Oh yeah! John Kerry during his Presidential Campaign!
-- How exactly do you fight ‘injustice’, especially when you are partners with the U.N./criminals helping run Black Marketing to support Hussein, breaking every sanction against Iraq over a 12 year period, and stealing oil money from the Iraqis who are being raped, tortured, and murdered by their own leader?
-- End the violence?! How are you going to do that when you are unwilling to fight? Islamic Extremists have declared they want to behead/kill all Non-Muslims in the entire world!
-- ‘These Crises’: So, France is telling Israel that military action is NOT the answer to terrorists, who have infested/enslaved a neighboring country, conducting hundreds of suicide bombings each year, conducting cross-border raids to kidnap 1 to 2 of your troops to blackmail you into exchanging those troops for hundreds of terrorists being held in jail for attacking or planning attacks against you?!
"It is the duty of France and Europe to show that the clash of civilizations is not inevitable," he said. "No one retains this wisdom, inherited from our history, as we, French and Europeans, do."
TRANSLATION: Despite the declarations of war by Islamic Extremists individuals (OBL), terrorists groups (Hezbollah, PLO, HAMAS, etc), and nations (Iran/Syria) and their promise to kill all non-Muslims around the world, FRANCE declares that the war between the free and Non-Muslim world and these extremists is NOT inevitable, as we believe they can be reasoned with, despite 50+ years of attacks against Israel and all the U.N.’s attempt to ‘reason/negotiate’ with the ‘non-terrorists’.
This from the people who gave you Berets, croissants, MIMES, the 'art of surrender', and a President, still in power, who has been proven to have made personal millions fom the Oil-for-Food Scandal! Oy-vey!
