You say you remember my "harsh words on France in general"? Well, then I think you remember wrongly. But then it always seemed to me you misunderstood my posts when France was involved. As for the subjects I brought up, I felt they were relevant to where the discussion was going at that point (plus to the bigger picture and historical background). Also, that wasn't a thread about Iraq, it was a thread about nations (such as France and Germany) agreeing to a greater degree of cooperation with the US over Iraq. France was part of the discussion from the beginning (and the discussion then wandered). Nor was that thread our most significant conflict over France. A lot of the trouble you gave me happened elsewhere.

I'm glad you're not interested in reminiscing our past conflicts. Nor am I. But we seem to be reminiscing them anyway. But I've never called you "democracy-hater" and I don't intend to.
