As frenchman, I would like to mention a positive aspect of the Irak
invasion : refusing to invade Irak was the unique good decision of M.
Chirac during his mandate of French President !

Mssr. Chirac would count as a pragmatist by other standards: I would claim
that he's a french Helmut Kohl. Jimmy Carter made the same non-Bush
decision to not invade. Somehow, Carter, France and the quagmire
unexperienced is unpatriotic.
