I read some of the comments posted after the article. The ones that were anti-France saddened me too. It's not as if the entire country decided the fate of those trees. We are still allies and I hope we will remain so.

Yeah I hope so to, but what i think is interesting, the FR and the US never went to war. We fought Spain, Germany, Britain, Italy, but never the French Republic/France.
And yeah, it sucks trees were taken down, but don't local governments screw up on that kind of stuff all the time. I mean, seriously both the US and France are great countries but need a wake up call if the thing that causes such an outroar is that someone cut down the wrong trees. What if you/we lived in a country where you could be arrested for walking with only two people at night or where reporters and news anchors "disappear" for dissenting. Think about it.
