Let's not ruin nostatic's thread (and crush Wayne's bandwidth) with the full-on, get-down anti-French screed right now.

And, incidentally, the French intelligence services believed (as did the Germans, Italians, British, etc.) that Iraq had WMD... AND it was the French that tipped the British to Hussein's attempts to buy uranium from Niger. The French just wouldn't follow up on anything in part b/c of the money that many French officials and companies were making in illegal trading w/ Iraq.
