    If the French fight each other, who wins?

    It’s like the USuC spring game.
    A vote is like a rifle: its usefulness depends upon the character of the user.

    I believe he is referring to the French helping us during the Revolutionary war.

    Although that debt was probably paid during WWII

    I'm going to agree with you that that is probably what he is referencing. However, we settled our monetary obligations to them in 1795. I believe that an argument could be made that without the French, America as we know it would not exist. Anything else that we owed them was paid in WWI when we helped them defeat the Germans and in WWII when we basically gave their country back to them.

    And yet we still have to pay annual upkeep for the cemetery at Normandy.

    C'mon, would you really want to leave it up to the French to care for our dead?

    The cemetery is also U.S. territory, not French.

    It’s interesting to see a country judged by the fringe that makes all the news while
    Viewing your own country through your own narrow glass. How do y’all think the rest of the world views US right about now?

    Those queers should go to an Arab country, stand on the edge of a tall building, and see what happens in 5 minutes of less.

    France had a self interest in seeing our independence from England. Our obligation was satisfied with that end, again with debt repayments, then the world wars, but we also had self interest there too.

    Sun Tzu was right. "The enemy of my enemy is my friend".

    Islam's (or rather those who pull the strings in the Islamic circles) world goal is to purge the earth of infidels, or in plain speech...world domination. They've been trying to capture Europe since they've known Europe was there. Since they cant make it happen by force, they are coming in by votes which are bought from those in power. I stand with the French citizens.

    The point of my post was to show there are those among the French who see the writing on the wall and they were vocal about it.
    Many Frenchmen realize they have F'd up welcoming the Islamic state into France.
    I hope they have the balls to see it through for the preservation of the country and possibly awaken the world to the problems of Islam.
