Russ has been busting on the French right and left, not just in this thread.

oh danielle, my minute intelligence renders me nowhere near capable of understanding your point here, then. Please help me out - Russ is a far more prolific contributor to the News forum than, say, you, so explain to me how he is "busting" on the french "right and left" - mostly he "busts" on the increasing (and historically relevant) anti-Semitic nature of (vocal) segments of the French population.
Oh, and there was that whole "offering and supporting nuclear capabilities to Iran/Iraq" thing - that sucked. They also benefitted from the corrupt 'oil for food' program, packing all those food boxes with perfume then shipping it directly to the Hussein family. Not so cool.
No one is asking them to close museums, no one is trashing French culture, no one is claiming they didn't help the US during the Revolutionary War - but why would you pretend these aren't valid complaints? Or is it invalid when the French make similar attacks on American foreign policy?
It has to go both ways.
But obviously no one could expect me to 'get it'. But I'm the dickhead. Obviously.
