Chirac must be fuming. To see red,white, and blue being raised...and it's not French.

In recent times yes, but they were quite the force prior to Napolean's falls. Guess they breed that part of their genetics out because the current French aren't much good for fighting.

The really funny part is that Napoleon was Corsican.

France is 0-5-2.


As a nation they haven't won shit. They are Europe's punching bag.

As General Patton said (something to this)

I rather face 2 german units then to have 1 french unit behind me

I think it's BS. I'm sure after the US Marine raised the Colors in the opening days and all the heat that attracted, I'm sure Gen. Franks gave explicit instructions forbidding that to happen again.

LOL Yeah your right but at least back in the day they would fight when it was needed. Guess they just need to find someone who isn't French to lead them.

They should raise the pre-'91 flag of Iraq.

Nope, it's there in living color. Live TV.

This is highly symbolic and I'm sure is happening with the full knowledge and consent of CentCom and higher.

We're showing the entire Arab world that we have occupied the seat of government.

Station/network?

Station/network?

Ahh damn. They took it down. Oh well, the point was made.

FOX, Gregg Kelly reporting. Same unit that drove through yesterday. 2nd Brigade(?) 3rd ID.

Instead they raised a flag on an M1 and have parked the M1 at the entrance to the palace.

No, the French just love collaborating with the Germans.

If the Stars and Stripes have gone up, you'd better bloody well take them down again...

What is this campaign all about? A coalition to 'liberate'' the people of Iraq or an American invasion of a sovereign state?

[p_p_man]

Every time the Stars and Stripes are seen...

flying on Iraqi property it just pinpoints the USA as an invading army...

By showing the flag America is showing its true colours...
