It's nice to see this information becoming public! France, Russia and China have been the primary suppliers to the Iraqi military for the last 20 years. Their stance is much more about money and oil for them than it is for us yet the peacenics say we're after oil. It wil be interesting to see what documents we find in Iraq concerning other colusion on the part of the French!

Yes Marshall agree that when we find the evidence it will be interesting to see if France has other deals and also Russia and China.

While it may not be diplomatically correct, I would love if we posted that information on a web site for the whole world to see....

Well, hopefully more of this kind of information is dug up and shared by the media more frequently and closer to page 1 than with the Macy's ads.

Damn....

France should be happy.
Cause after the U.S. destroys all these planes ... they should make a stinking killing selling parts! ... (maybe, if there's actually anything left)
