A European country known to be one of the worlds centers of art and culture. However, lately France has undergone a bashing from the American westerners because of it's decision not to support America in an UNJUSTIFIED war on "terror". The American people have proven their stupidity by knocking France (Freedom Fries? thats the most pathetic attempt I've ever seen in my life) using past events such as WWII and such to prove that France "MUST" follow America's orders in an illegal war. Forgeting that in the past France liberated America, so doesn't that make it balanced?? Just cause a country doesn't go to war, doesnt mean their arrogant, look at the situation, look at why you were going to war in the first place, then once you realise that you were in the wrong, apologise for your arrogance.

Unlike all the other countries that went to war with america(and of course after they got blasted by terrorists, straight away pulled out - FACT: The reason to why so many people have been killed by terrorists is because of the fact that they went to war WITH AMERICA, if America never made up some bullshit war none of the other countries, e.g. Madrid, Bali, London would have recieved terrorist attacks and there actually would be some people living!) France was one of the only countries that basically told America "no, we're not going to war with you, we've actually analysed the situation, and well frankly, we know what your doing. Your continuing your daddy's work, what he could never finish, and plus to add to that, you have NO LOGICAL REASON to why your going to war, but instead you make bullshit accusations to why your actually invading a country, and when you cant find your answers (where there any WMD's??) you go and find something else that'll justify your bullshit actions.


I'm not going to post another anti-american blurb (although I do admit I do knock america in this but for good reason). But America, THINK. That's all I have to say, you can keep posting I hate france things, but think first. Are you doing the right thing? THINK TO WHY FRANCE DIDN'T GO TO WAR? If you were educated, you would realise that, I'm not saying your dumb, just educate yourself on that matter. Take these points in:
1. Was there an actual justification to the war in iraq?
2. Think this: Your president LIED to your people, he made fake accusations of WEAPONS OF MASS DESTRUCTION to get your support on a war that claimed the lives of thousands of American soldiers.
3. Read over the WMD's facts: There were no WMD's found and there were no traces that any where here for a long time.
4. I understand 9/11 was a terrible event, but read over the connection that your president had with the osama bin laden family. He flew the family out the day of the attack, now how could he have known that is was their family that allowed the attack, hmmm connection there.
5. Connection: Bush rigs election, becomes president. 9/11 occurs, day of attack Bush flies osama bin ladens family out of the country, compliments of himself. War uses this as a frontier to base his "WAR ON TERROR" and attacks the country of Iraq, which had no connections to Osama bin laden or any other terrorist cell. Both the Bin Laden and Bush family make great profits off this war. Do you think 9/11 was staged? I'm not saying it was, but there is HUGE coincidences in there.
6. Now take this in, the french people understood this, that the war was unjustified and that it was just basically a reason to finish George Bush Snr's job and to steal the oil of the country. Now how can you call a country that actually ANALYSES a suitation cowards? That's SMART for you. The Shoot first and ask questions later technique never did anyone any good.
8. So don't confuse the war on terror with the war in Iraq. They are totally different things (although it seems Bush has tried to confuse the American people with making them the same). France doesn't not want to help find these terrorists and punish them, they just don't want to go to war with a different country for a totally unjustified reason. France NEVER said they would not help America find these terrorists and punish them, they told America that they would NOT go to war that did not relate ONE BIT to the connections they had on the terrorists.

Think about it, there are more definitions of how much France sucks than there are of terrorists, Osama Bin Laden, Husien etc. Read point 8 over again if you don't agree with me, but this is an educated view and I have analysed most perspectives upon it.

France is a country that fought side by side with Americans on American soil during the American war of independence. Also, the counrty that built and gave as a gift the greatest symbol of America, the Statue of Liberty.

A country where people work 35 hour weeks and have two months paid leave a year.

Is the world's 4th largest economy.

Is a country with strong cultural and traditional values.

Is a county with arguably the best food and drink in the world.

Provence

A country with second-to-none public systems - TGV (train), education, healthcare.

A country that smokes and drinks more wine than Britain and America and has a fraction of the heart disease and obesity rate.

A country full of charming, well-dressed people who do respond well when not approached by tactless English-speaking philistines.

A country full of beautiful architecture and art.

Don't knock it until you've tried it. I have been there two times, and my brother now has lived there for over a year. All the negative stereotypes are untrue, the people there are clean and friendly. And the positive stereotypes are true, they have a great culture, wine, food, etc. You can't say that France is a bad country unless you have firsthand experience. So to all of you rednecks, please, sell your trailer and visit this beautiful country so you can realize that you're just jealous of the French, you don't hate them.

A country whose soldiers marched row by row into German machine gun fire in the beginning of World War 1. 500, 000 French soldiers died this way in The Great War. This is the same country that is ridiculed today for having a 'cowardly' military history.

Very beautiful and nice country with a rich culture. I went to France and the stereotypes are untrue. The French are friendly and clean. Most are very chic and chill. A lot of ignorant Americans forget that the French gave us the of America: the Statue of Liberty (D'oh!). It's also a country that gave us troops in the revolution. Most French haters are also Bush supporters who haven't even been to France (most likely because they can't afford it)... why bash what you don't know?

Known to many redneck Americans as a terrified country just because they didn’t agree with Bush. I don’t agree with Bush, does that make me a scared coward? So before you hicks start condemning France, go read a history book. You’ll be surprised how much France has given us and helped us, from our very beginning.

I think Bush is retarded, I guess I’m cowardly Frenchmen too, eh?

1) A Western European nation. Located slightly beneath Britain, in most or all senses.
2) Produces nice wine.
3) Produces nice cheese.
4) Produces shedloads of nuclear weapons, which are happily tested on small Pacific atolls home to endangered species of fish and pygmies.
5) The number one source of irritation for the rest of Europe. This manages to go unnoticed by many Americans, who assume the continent is a single amorphous blob.
6) Also the number one source of contention for the United States, having replaced the Soviet Union.
7) Has an annoying accent.
8) Dislikes British beef. This, as theory and experiment have shown, is due to France's argumentative and overly vegetarian wussiness and has nothing whatsoever to do with life-threatening brain disease.
9) Dislikes Germany, for invading it repeatedly and being German.
10) Dislikes Britain for constant warfare, political disagreement and out of habit.
11) Dislikes the United States for its competition in the 'irritating accents' league table and also for having more nuclear weapons and cheese than France.
12) Dislikes.... well, most things, actually.
13) Is a thoroughly splendid country.
14) Is filled with thoroughly un-splendid French people.
