allthumbs Posted March 8, 2003 Share Posted March 8, 2003 Turns out the French have been smuggling in spare parts for Iraq's French-built Mirage fighters and also Iraqi attack helicopters. This evidently has been going on for a year and up until Jan. of this year. No wonder the French are opposing us in the war. Nuke France.

catbirdseat Posted March 8, 2003 Share Posted March 8, 2003 So soon we forget. We sold missles and spare parts to Iran, a country who took diplomats as hostages. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
allthumbs Posted March 8, 2003 Author Share Posted March 8, 2003 Numbnuts, the point is that France should be our ally in this deal and instead are helping the ragheads to kill us more efficiently. Fuck the French. I'm hereby declaring my own private war on any Frenchy bastard that is anti-America. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

tomcat Posted March 8, 2003 Share Posted March 8, 2003 I am so boycotting french fries. Â But seriously, was it the honorable trask who so eloquently said, "Going to war without France is like going fishing without boxing gloves"? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
catbirdseat Posted March 8, 2003 Share Posted March 8, 2003 So trask, did they say whether the sale was with the knowledge of the French Government? If so, that would be an absolutely incredible story. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
allthumbs Posted March 8, 2003 Author Share Posted March 8, 2003 Catturd- They said they weren't sure yet if the government was involved (it's currently under investigation by the CIA), but that the parts were shiny new in the wrapper. Hmmm, go figure. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

sexual_chocolate Posted March 8, 2003 Share Posted March 8, 2003 That's pretty good. Although flask will be jumping about "inappropriate decontextualization"; next he'll make some comment about your wife's ass; and then he'll follow it all with a threat aimed at me.
