Why the West will attack Iran By Spengler Why did French President Jacques Chirac last week threaten to use non-conventional - that is, nuclear - weapons against terrorist states? And why did Iran announce that it would shift foreign-exchange reserves out of European banks (although it has since retracted this warning)? The answer lies in the nature of Tehran's nuclear ambitions. www.atimes.com/atimes/Middle_East/HA24Ak01.html

If France flames Tehran...
I'll take back every rotten thing I ever said about them.
Well... almost.

Yeah, well, I can virtually guarantee you that when Chirac says "He will nuke Tehran." what he means is that he'll look the other way while WE DO IT.

Don't forget - his best buddy saddam also attacked Iran.
It will up to the US to clean up them mess AND take any heat that comes down the road.
The French are worthless when it comes to diplomacy.
Or wars.

The individual French soldier is a professional and no slouch, though.
It's their leadership.
