#1 no justification for a unilateral decision to attack Iraq

What is this bull about unilateralism ? US, UK, Spain, Denmark, Kuwait etc, etc This is not a unilateral decision. Quit your damn whinning !

#2 That a**hole never misses his OWN "good occasion to keep silent." His new name is Jacques Itch. Or perhaps Jacques Rot.

#3 How about this, Jacques: we are making a multinational unilateral decision to attack Saddam and Co. And that's a fact, Jack.

#4 Chirac said "...the inspections have shown that they were a credible alternative for disarming this country."

French ambassador Jean-David Levitte said: "If Saddam Hussein were to use chemical and biological weapons, this would change the situation completely..."

Is pot legal in France ? Cause these guys are HIGH.

#5 Jacques: When you are in a hole, the first thing to do is to stop digging.

#6 the U.S. ultimatum to Iraq would compromise future efforts to deal with crises linked to arms of mass destruction
Once we take care of Iraq, there won't be many crises because people will know we mean business when we tell them to disarm.

#8 When Jacques says, "Iraq today does not represent an immediate threat," he means to French people. The Islamo-Nazis'll blow up Washington not Paris. Iraq's nothing the French need to worry about.

#9 Domingo, Timespeak: any action that does not have the support of the New York Times and France is by definition unilateral.

#10 Pull up your highchair next to Kimchee, Jackie, and start banging for attention. You're next.

And they think they're going to be in on the rebuilding.
