So now the blood-thirsty morans reckon the world should prepare for war over Iran's nuclear programme.

Surprisingly, not the Whitehouse, but the French administration.


Quote:
France warning of war with Iran

French foreign minister Bernard Kouchner says the world should prepare for war over Iran's nuclear programme.

"We have to prepare for the worst, and the worst is war," Mr Kouchner said in an interview on French TV and radio.

Mr Kouchner said negotiations with Iran should continue "right to the end", but an Iranian nuclear weapon would pose "a real danger for the whole world".


A tad different from the previous administration, this guy may be happy with "Un Parking de Verre"

Well, as you Americans say, "Plus ça change"

Well, that's what my TV said last night, anyhow.

Ugh. Well, the French did elect a horrible right-wing ********** You" President, instead of the intelligent good-looking left-wing female alternative. I'm not surprised he's turned out to be a war monger.

Not surprising coming from a universalist moron.

Someone please tell me when war became such a bad thing. When did it hecome wrong to f'uck people up when they refused to handle their sh;t? If the Japanese destroyed the Pacific fleet today you silly-assed people would have some sort of problem with us dropping nuclear weapons on them.

When it drives an thriving economy into the dirt the worst since FDR. At least FDR had 2 excuses, a world war, and a depression.

If the Nips decided to sink our fleet, sure, nuke the hell out of them. If the Iranians decide to nuke our allies, sure, nuke em back.

So, what's so bad about this economy? The fact that housing prices are correcting? The fact that stupid people took out stupid loans and now can't get out of their houses because prices are correcting and can't refinance because credit is tightening to where its supposed to be? The fact that energy prices are through the roof because 2.5 billion people in China and India have decided they'd like to no longer be third world countries? Or could it be because everything now costs more in the USA because some sh;t stupid legislators have decided to buy in to the ethanol myth and now the price of corn is through the roof?

Don't be a f'ucking idiot. This economy is just fine.

I'm only guessing, but was it when it got hundreds of thousands of people killed, whose only crime was to be born in Iraq? (or Iran, or wherever)

Yeah, I saw the interview in a french newspaper, and it didn't sound so war-mongering in context. The surprising thing is that it's coming from the left-wing Minister of a right-wing government.

But it's all talk. It's purely to show that the Europeans are "putting serious pressure" on Iran, are not "weak", have a large "*****", and are happy to contemplate "killing lots of innocent civilians cos their government want what we have".

In other words, that statement was made... to please people like Moe!

But yeah, it's ********* What's France gonna do? Drop a nuke on Iran? Send the foreign legion? Pelter them with onions?

For any action to be successful, armed or not, it will have to come from the international commmunity as a whole, with a united front. It will have to be... what's the word... internationalist?

Without the French, the Russians, or the Chinese, the SC can't impose serious sanctions. The IAEA inspections can't be effective without backing and threats from the SC, so it's really a no-brainer.

Unless the US decides to go it alone again, but I thought you guys learnt from your mistakes...

When did we take over France?

Circa 1945, I think.

France has the capability for war? I mean, the last time that France fought with anyone, this happened. And this was in 1975!

Quote:

[Arthur and the Knights arrive at a castle.]
Arthur: Hello? [long silence] Hello!
[A guard appears. He speaks with a French accent.]
Frenchman: 'Allo! Whoo ez eet?
Arthur: It is King Arthur, and these are my Knights of the Round Table. Whose castle is this?
Frenchman: Zis is the castle of my master, Guy de Loembard.
Arthur: Go and tell your master that we have been charged by God with a sacred quest. If he will give us food and shelter for this night, he can join us in our Quest for the Holy Grail.
Frenchman: Well, I'll ask him, but I don't zink he'll be very keen... Uh, he's already got one, you see.
Arthur: What?
Galahad: He says they've already got one!
Arthur: Are you sure he's got one?
Frenchman: Oh, yes, it's very nice-a. [to other Frenchmen] I told him we already got one. [they snicker in a very French manner]
Arthur: Well, uh... Can we come up and have a look?
Frenchman: Of course not! You are English types.
Arthur: Well, what are you then?
Frenchman: I'm French! Why do you zink I have zis outrageous accent, you silly king?!
Galahad: What are you doing in England?
Frenchman: Mind your own business!
Arthur: [sternly] If you do not show us the Grail, we shall take your castle by force!
Frenchman: You don't frighten us, English pig-dogs! Go and boil your bottoms, sons of a silly person! I blow my nose at you, so-called Ah-thoor Keeng, you and all your silly English K-nnnnnnnniggits! [makes taunting gestures at them]
Galahad: What a strange person.
Arthur: Now look here, my good man —
Frenchman: I don't want to talk to you no more, you empty-headed animal food trough wiper! I fart in your general direction! Your mother was a hamster and your father smelt of elderberries!
[pause]
Galahad: Is there someone else up there we could talk to?
Frenchman: A-no! Now go away or I shall taunt you a second time-a!
[slight pause]
Arthur: Now this is your last chance. I've been more than reasonable...
Frenchman: [speaks in French to another Frenchman] Fetchez la vache.
2nd Frenchman: Quoi?
Frenchman: Fetchez la vache!
[Yet another Frenchman is seen preparing a cow for something. Arthur is still speaking outside.]
Arthur: If you do not agree with my commands, then I shall —
[The cow whizzes through the air with a loud BOING!]
Arthur: JESUS CHRIST!
[The cow squashes one of the "horses".]
Arthur: Right! [draws sword] CHARGE!!!
[The Knights charge at the French castle. The French drop more animals on them, and a battle begins.]
Frenchman: Yeah, this one is for your mother! There you go! And this one's for your dad!
[The Knights quickly lose courage.]
Arthur: Run away!
Knights: Run away! Run away!...
[Arthur and the Knights retreat and hide behind a ridge of land near the woods. The French jeer after them.]
Lancelot: Fiends, I'll tear them apart!
Arthur: [stops him] No, no.
Bedevere: [to Arthur] Sir? I have a plan, sir...
[Fade to black.]


I don't think cows can beat nukes....

You're quoting Bill Maher now? I'm positive he said exactly that on his show this last weekend (or one of his guests did), including the whole "he had two excuses" bit...

Funny. Apparently, maintaining low inflation levels for record lengths of time, maintaining high GDP rates for record lengths of time, all while keeping CPI values and inflation values steady is "driving an thriving economy into the dirt" nowadays...?

Gotta love the filters you guys wear. It's amazing!
