From the Financial Times comes this little beauty, French Nuclear Retaliation.
“The leaders of states who would use terrorist means against us, as well as those who would consider using in one way or another weapons of mass destruction, must understand that they would lay themselves open to a firm and adapted response on our part,” Chirac said during a visit to a nuclear submarine base in northwestern France.”
First of all this is the French talking and they can puff out their chest all they want. But, I know that nobody is going to believe them. This being from, the same country that was overwhelmed for more than a week by Muslim kids ( islamists, poor, or whatever else you want to classify them as). The same group of idiots that said Hitler was a good guy until he walked in and made them another Nazi Province. They can say whatever they want, to whomever they wish… Can’t say that I am buying it.
Of all the nuclear launch scenarios that have passed through your mind, in your entire life, when has one of them included a nuclear first launch from the French. I would have to say that NEVER, is what travels through you head. As much as I have seen from the French Military in Gulf War I, and in history books as well, useless…gutless…worthless, just don’t seem to cover it.
And they wonder why they are still being targets, even though they have been against the US retaliation since the very beginning of this “War on Terror”. Second thing… This is the French we are talking about!!!
Be a part of the problem, be a part of the solution… Either way, stop flapping your lips when you know that nobody in the entire freaking world believes you mean it. And get the hell out of the way of those that will take action.
You can have peace. Or you can have freedom. Don't ever count on having both at once. - Robert A. Heinlein -
