C'man, France specifically avoided the global war on terror back in the early 2000s. Remember when the 'Murica crowd was running through the streets calling them surrender monkeys? Hell, I bet I could find thousands of posts by right wingers calling them such. Now, it's different because Obama didn't show up. If he had shown up, they would have probably complained that he's stealing the show and not focusing on made up scandals like Benghazi and the IRS thing.
Ah, jeez, no....
France had been IN the war on terror long before the US was even attacked. When you only listen to the idiots who actually VOTED in congress to re-name "French Fries" to "Freedom Fries" you end up spewing propagana. I would have demanded the Statute of Liberty back...what a ****ing insult, considering they were never "french" to begin with.
France, along with most of NATO chose not to get involved in another Vietnam and said so. They had their hands full in Libya and at home. They did NOTHING to America other than disagree with US foreign policy like Canada, and others. And like most of the rest of the world, they avoided that nightmare you created in Iraq.
