France Again Displays Its Unequalled Humility, Reasonableness, and In-Depth Understanding of World Affairs

France really shows its in-depth understanding of international relations, of which governments can claim to be the genuine article, and who, alone, is competent to making such judgments.
Pascale Boniface [sic: the first name is Pascal], director of the Institute for International and Strategic Relations in Paris, said renewing ties with France would help the new Iraqi government establish its legitimacy.

"Iraq has to show that it is not locked into a subservience to the United States," Mr. Boniface said.

Should Belgium show that it is not subservient to France? Non. Should Paris have shown that it was not subservient to Saddam Hussein? Non. Did Saddam ever have to prove that he was the genuine representative of the Iraqi people? Not at all, do not be ridicules! But the new Iraqi government must show France that it (the Baghdad government) is not subservient to Uncle Sam!

Good for you, France, what would we do without you? You proved it again: La France veille!
