Now that France is playing a loosing hand...

[]ooooo(chained)]

How long before they capitulate to preserve profit and help get people in to cover up a few messy details about the loving relationship between Chirac and Hussein?

It is what they do best! Hide behind their formidable Maginot Line and talk talk talk until the enemy comes in the unguarded back door...

you know, not all the French support Chirac. My roommate is from France. She's horrified about what he's done, but she is still proud to be French. She is proud of her country, if not of her leader.

That's very good to know.

One and counting...

There are a lot of good Frenchmen (and women). They are of many different political persuasions too, just like the people here. It's too bad that the whole country is judged upon the sole utterings of their leader. The government being what it is there, it's not uncommon for their leaders to set policies that are unpopular with the populace.

I just want to watch Chirac explain why all the drums of chemical and biological agents that Saddam has have the words "Fabrique en France" stenciled on them.

The French just don't want to lose all the $$$ Sadam is paying them to be his bitch. Once they realize the gravy train is over, they'll be back to sucking GWB's dick.

France said she'll go in once Saddam uses bio-chemi weapon. (i.e. ''the proof'')

I still think their side has the law on their side.

More like made in USA.....by GD Searle under their illustrious CEO Donald Rumsfeld and given by Ronald Reagan.

Afghanistan. Iraq. Wonder what other Reagan turds we'll find in the mideast sandbox?

We'll leave that to you.

heh... shouldn't be much of stretch for them to go from sucking Saddams ding-a-ling to sucking W's. At the very least, I'm thinking it's got to be a lot less hairy.

News from Iraq

On the front with Iraqi deserters

According to Iraqi deserters, almost everyone from generals to private soldiers is thinking about his own future and how best to escape from Saddam's control.

We spoke to two recent deserters: an air force pilot and an officer in the Iraqi special forces who had fought in Saddam Hussein's wars for 15 years or more - a tough and impressive man, wounded more than once in his country's defence.

I asked if it were true that Iraqi death squads would be stationed behind the frontline troops, to shoot them if they tried to escape.

The special forces officer confirmed this, but said it had also happened during the Iran-Iraq War from 1980 to 1988 and during the last Gulf War.

In 1991 the death squads surrendered along with everyone else.

Kurds flee Iraqi town

Refugees have been streaming into the Kurdish-controlled area of northern Iraq after what they say is a new wave of oppression.

Reports say hundreds of former residents of the northern city of Kirkuk have arrived in the area in the past few days.

Saheed Said, who crossed into the Western protected Kurdish enclave with his wife and children a few days ago, said: "It's terrible - Saddam has turned it into a military camp."

So many people have crossed into the Kurdish enclaves in recent days that the authorities are setting up tent camps and asking people to give up their spare rooms for the refugees.

Resan Bahadi and her 12-year-old daughter were among those queuing in the hope of being allocated a space in someone's home. She said she had no option but to flee.

"We were so afraid - we decided we couldn't wait and had to leave right away," she said

"All I grabbed was a few clothes and one loaf of bread."

And France and people like Chirac want to prop up the deck of cards that is Saddam's murderous regime in Iraq?
