#1 P-O-S-E-U-R-S!*

*A poseur is a person who adopts the dress, speech, and/or mannerisms of a particular group or subculture generally for attaining acceptability within the group. A poseur does not often share or even understand the philosophical underpinnings of whatever group he or she identifies with, unless it is at the most trivial of levels. Most subcultures view what they regard as poseurs with varying degrees of mistrust and scorn, inauthenticity being the nadir of human expression for many such groups.

#2 Without American umbrella, these SOB's are virtually defenseless, which Muzzies recognize. These fools need to raise armies just to control their internal populations. France, for instance, better have sufficient armed military ready to stomp on the growing enclaves once they decide to take over the country.

And get no sympathy from me. Maybe if they hadn't allowed Europistan to develop I'd feel differently.

#4 This is also an article about the UN. The UN will not necessarily do what the US wants done, but it can do nothing without the US.

It is also why the sale of that LPD to India is such a big deal. As Britain goes Euro, they are on the road to becoming the second greatest military power projector in the world. What Bush has done for our relationship with India will come to be seen as being at least as important as the GWOIF.

#5 SOP35 has an interesting point...when does France become Lebanon with a true state within a state ruled by Sharia and importing rockets from Iran?
