The truth is that France enjoyed minor economic ties with Saddam.


Check out the Alcatel contract to rebuild the telecom grid in Baghdad before
Hussein was knocked over. More than minor economic ties.

" Alcatel is French. We don't blame all French companies for the French
government's recalcitrance in making Saddam live up to his UN obligations,
or France's continuing opposition to constructive participation in
reconstruction, but we will point out that Alcatel itself is partially
government owned.

The point is that countries and companies that helped Saddam stay in power,
and countries and companies that made a profit from the Ba'athist regime on
the backs of the Iraqi people should not have the inside track on
reconstruction contracts. "

Damn, I wish you hadn't crossposted that. That's all we need is "The Enlightenment"
over here all the time in r.a.p.

:

Arromanches' 534 residents have been told that they must either stay indoors
throughout next Sunday or leave the area.


Is this event organized by the DNC Convention planners in Boston?

A funny way to celebrate being liberated from fascists.

Not before but *after* Saddam fall.
Nothing to do with Saddam regime.

And *before* my previous statement is correct.

Why? It's exactly the way they handled the original invasion.

In case you haven't noticed, there's not that many German soldiers
defending the coast this time.

That sounds fair. The European derived races will be halved in less
than 50 years thanks to their victory.

Unintentional but true. This was a war not worth fighting or even
winning.


Having been raised by a POW who witnessed the atrocities at KZ Mauthausen
firsthand, saying that I'm offended by this remark is an understatement.

Yet another of many survivors and yet another witness of nothing
specific other than incarceration and its side effects. The
holohype, the now perverse and ad nauseum and dogmatically imposed
religion of the west, is the putrescent being used to corrode us con
us in the west into commiting racial Hari Kari.

Those d-day soldiers (4 of june not 6th as I recall) .....


Well, glad to see you're up on your facts.


LOL!

This is why I unsubscribed from rec.aviation.military years ago. Too many
nutjobs who lack the psychological capacity to actually fly an airplane.
Wish we could get more of their aviators to r.a.p and leave these crazoids
over there to argue about UFOs and the Illuminati and whatnot.

Let me make the point again. Looking at what the UK and the USA have
become, looking at those disgusting heads of state on that dias and
most poignently looking and what is becoming (disappearing) of the
descendents of those D-Day soldiers.

Hitlers wouldn't have done worse.

There is nothing 'conspiratorial' about that. Merely a bitter
assertion that can be strognly and easily argued.
