It does mean they have their own opinion based on experience in the Middle East that consists of several more centuries’ worth than America has.

Wow, why am I not surprised!
Long experience with terrorism? Yes I totally agree that they have sold weapons to many of the terrorists and countries who support terrorism for many, many years. Iran, Iraq (before and during the embargo), the PLO, Libya, Syria.... the list goes on and on but yes they have supported terrorism with anyone who could pay for the weapons.
France after 9/11 was our ally? What are you smoking? They do have some troops in Afgan but a very small amount and rarely in harms way.
Several more centuries experience? Yes and now they are a society and country in decline yet they refuse to admit it.
