| #5 That's because you're too simplisme to understand such nuanced people as the Phroggie diplomats. Guess that means you're American too. ;-p |

| #4 It really is true that the French will always cut off their nose to spite their face. I find it hilarious that they will sell some country something on day 1, insult them on day 2, sell to their enemy on day 3, the act insulted when on day 4 the first country tells them to kiss off. |

| #2 And france shows once again that they are a nation to be bought and sold, just like the bar girls in Paris. Literally selling seats at the UN, what next? Will they sell the prime ministers seat to soddies for oil? We would probably all be better off. |

| #1 Keeping in mind this is the PakiWaki Daily Times... I think there's a toddler tantrum in progress. So India must repay France for their support for a UNSC seat, the chances of which are extremely small, by buying French products - or else. Nothing subtle or sophisticated about this - pure straightforward unilateral barbarian-style extortion. So whaddya say, India? Feel like teaming up with this fast-fading light in the rear-view mirror of history? Looking kinda dhim, to me. |
