Speaking of the French....some may recall the "cajon" General in charge of the LA National Guard, just after Katrina. In the first few hours, he was interviewed about why the LA Guard had not gone into the more heavily damaged areas around NO yet. His reply was that they were waiting for the necessary heavy equipment to arrive (from other States) because they had had to leave all their's in Iraq when their tour ended. Attacks come in various forms including mother nature ...not all French (or their heirs) are cowards....some have a good reason (such as no equipment or WMDs) for just watching...
