#1 wow, he's sounding somewhat crazy if he really is threatening the US. Didnt we save his butt and his fathers butt, just last century. The EU, however is evolving.

#2 I agree. Old Jacques seems to be getting a little soft in the head.

#3 Old Jacques seems to be getting a little soft in the head.

According to various sources, confidential letters, independent radios, citing revealing incidents (senile fixation on veal from the Corrèze area, misidentifying people, acting "strange",...), he really hasn't well recovered from his stroke... that's why an early presidential election may be likely in 2006 instead of 2007.
Yacoub Ben Shiraq's health and lucidity may not in top shape...

#4 Don't think so...I think he's reading the riot act to certain Islamic republics...

#5 The flexibility and reactivity of our strategic forces would allow us to respond directly against its centers of power, its capacity to act.

Yes indeed sHaKeY. Interpret that as: Destroy Tehran and or Damascus before Morning Prayer.

#6 If he's blowing about the US it is just a way to get the anti-American forces in Europe to join him in creating/leading the EU military and dump Nato.

Expanding the military is a good way to create jobs and increase national pride. Picking on the US is a sure way to get lefties to listen without having to risk much actual fallout.
