- - - - - (Gasp!) The French Lied to the United States? - - - - -
At Tech Central Station, Nick Schulz calmly claims that the French government flat-out lied to GW during the run-up to Gulf War II.
Ken Timmerman, author of "The French Betrayal of America", wrote:
During the diplomatic haggling in the run-up to Gulf War II, the French flat-out lied to the United States. According to Timmerman's sources, Jacques Chirac assured the United States that France would support the U.S. when the decision was made to go to war. This is what "gave the president the confidence to keep sending Colin Powell back to the U.N." According to a source familiar with the conversations Bush had with Chirac, "They also explain why the administration has been going after the French so aggressively ever since. They lied."
I'm shocked, I tell you, simply shocked!
The next time the US decides that the French are irrelevant whatever the issue of the day is, and the French get pissed, they should remember what Le Grand Charlie said: "Great nations don't have friends, they have interests."
