Amusing as that 'Bush -quip' was at the time, and I supported it, I now look at the fact that the French were, sadly, right about the folly of GW2/Bliar etc

Don't knock a military man for sticking to his principles. Wish more would have the same kind of balls. Got a feeling that the Fffffrench will come to rue the day when they let weedy, needy, seedy Macaroon through the door of power.

I see that Macron has found his way to Istres.

We never had a presidential visit when I was there.

Siseman - +1
General is doing the right thing.

BOAC - wasn't just the French who told Bush/Bliar to take off.

My apologies for the poor phrasing; not meant as a criticism, but an addition.

Shame our top brass don't stack en masse quoting the gross unfairness of going after military personnel having released and pardoned convicted murderers.

It is rare in plenty of countries to see military leaders with decency, principles and honor. So rare it is to remember them. In my country the list is empty.
