This isn't Frances war, they shouldn't have to step up and do anything.

I don't think they should be criticized for helping, especially after the US was completely *******s to them.

No sum1, this is America's war. The majority of the world believe that going into Iraq was a bad idea. Not just France, they were just more vocal about it.

Just because the US wants to do something doesn't mean that it's the worlds problem. This was a US war, Bush made that decision when he decided to go it alone.

So therefore they have no reason to get involved in a war that they didn't agree with and them helping us now, cause we're royally screwing up the situation over there, shouldn't be criticized.

Please, if September 11th had happened in France do you think we would be so quick to jump in and help them out. No, because we can not jump into every war this world has going on. Look at the countless number of other wars occuring on this plant right now, by your theory we should get involved in every single one of those as well to make the world a better place.


Oh yeah sum1, the allies were just lining up to help us. That's why we're covering 90% of the cost and soldiers in this war. The world really pitched in and helped us there.

Other Wars

more stuff

Check out those articles and tell me that we're really in Iraq to "make the world a better place"

What are you talking about? People are being critical about if France will actually help or not.. Not being critical about France Helping.

If France helps, then that would be great.

No, I was saying that it is great that they are helping.

I was upset with the people that were criticizing france by saying "well about time" or "yeah, right. like they'll actually do anything."

This wasn't Frances war and it's a great thing that they are helping us out now cause we desperately need it. People should be happy that they are helping, not upset cause they didn't do it earlier.

Wow! A year and a half later, billions have been spent and thousands have died and France finally decides to help out. Surely, this will be the end of the insurgency.
