France has also fought in, kept the peace in, or evacuated civilians from - The French stayed out of Iraq because their corrupt government officials were bought and paid for with Iraq "oil for food" money, *not* because the French people are cowards. FYI: Government corruption rating scores are given at http://www.icgg.org/ (http://www.icgg.org/downloads/Univer...Release_04.pdf) for different countries. France 2004 corruption index is 22 - down from 21 in 2000. For USA it is 17 - down from 14 in 2000. The best score it given to Finland at 1. The worst possible score is 145 for Bangladesh tied with Haiti.
