I thought it was generally insightful, although the comparisons between communists and neocons was pretty dumb. The point about the French and American belief in the universality of their values is spot on, however. After decades of French democratic values holding a dominant position in the world, American values are making a comeback, which certainly must piss the French off. Thank god for that; French values are a gross perversion of the values that came out of the American Revolution and we'll all be better off when they are left on the ash-heap of history.

And the article is crap.
USA fought Iraq for one reason only - because it could not get UN permission to do it. The point of the whole thing is to demonstrate (unwillingly, yeah my ass. It is so by design) that USA can and will go against the world. Don't mess with the big dog.

I agree. Maybe not dumb, but at least it would deserve more arguments.Originally posted by Drake Tungsten

Well in fact, this kind of comment doesn't really decrease the average stupidity of the threadThank god for that; French values are a gross perversion of the values that came out of the American Revolution and we'll all be better off when they are left on the ash-heap of history.
