Unreliable French Are No Surprise
News Story: UNITED NATIONS, Aug. 17 -- France has rebuffed U.N. pleas to make a major contribution to a peacekeeping mission in southern Lebanon, setting back international efforts to send a credible military force to the region to police a cease-fire between Israel and Hezbollah, according to U.N. and French officials. French President Jacques Chirac instead committed Thursday to send a relatively small military engineering company of 200 soldiers.
The good old French. A country whose military has a wonderful record: French and Indian War, Napoleonic War with Russia, First World War (US saved them), Second World War (US saved them), and French Indo-China. Have they ever won one?
So now, afraid of what their military is incapable of doing, they are backing out of their agreement with the United Nations to lead a peacekeeping force in Southern Lebanon. Anyone surprised?
Israel now faces another promise of European “protection,” just like European Jews faced during the Nazi “Jewish Solution.” Lebanon has announced that their army will not disarm Hizbullah and will carry arms only for self protection, and the UN will continue to give lip service to disarming. So who protects Israel? Only Israel does, and whatever it takes they will do.
I guess Bush and Rice are too busy patting themselves on the back for getting a worthless UN resolution passed. Just a bunch of words from them and the head of the UN who backs the Muslims. Thank you US, UN, and the rest of the Western World. Don’t be surprised when things blow up again.
What a waste.
