According to your fundamentalist mindset, bringing up Bush, Iraq war, US weapons sales to Saddam, Rumsfeld meeting with Saddam are all fine and dandy but no one should ever ever mention French weapons sales to Saddam, Chirac’s long term relationship with Saddam starting in the 1970’s etc. And if anybody dares to do so they will met with name calling and insults. In other words you want a one sided view to suit your biases.

Mmmm….
Where have I seen that before ?

[[Let me see, does pointing out well know facts reported in the media for years that the French helped Saddam build nuclear reactors qualify as “french bashing”. When did the truth become “bashing”? ]]

Just a correction: Pepe le Pew is not a Disney character. He’s from the Warner Bros. stable of cartoons, along Bugs Bunny, Daffy Duck and Yosemite Sam.

I thought that these lies over our supposed arms supply to Saddam were over, I guess some still have the donkey style, “têtu comme un mulet” ; no averred news-papers would dare to print them today, just a few biased idiots showmen that want to make laugh an audience, or biased colomnists… umm, I got quite a few of them brooched through my sword

Alan was the first to air a one hour radio show on French Bashing in 2003. He invited me and Christopher Ruddy of Newsmax. I am surprised he would use such imagery, but at the same time the commercial is supposed to be over the top and plays with anti-left prejudice…

At the same time, that ~~Disney~~ WB character was designed to stereotype the French in the post-war era. Sent Alan a twitter…

@ Nick

Reagan sent Rumsfeld to salute saddam during the Iraq/Iran war….just to ask him to not use chimical weapons??????

So he is a hero!? Why did he wait this meeting to be made public by the media instead of trying to hide it?

In the same serie, Chirac met Saddam in the 70s in order to ask him to not be a dicator.
And Rumsfeld was on the board of a company providing nuclear technology to North Korea in order to send them fake data so they explode themselves….
