Yeah, by my score, it's Napoleon vs. Prussia - a clear win for France Franco-Prussian War - a clear win for Germany World War I - "no decision" World War II - a clear win for Germany in 1940 so that's a 2-1-1 record for Germany. -Marc -- Marc Reeve actual email address after removal of 4s & spaces is c4m4r4a4m4a4n a4t c4r4u4z4i4o d4o4t c4o4m |

Shows your knowledge of european history..... Enough said. What three conflicts would that be? Pierre-Henri was probably refering to the war of 1870, won by the Germans at Though, technically, Germany didn't exist until 1871, after the war. Just thought I'd muddy the waters even further :-) -Ugly Bob the expense of France who lost some territory in the eastern part of the country (this heavy defeat was also the signal of the end for the second empire and the French people eventually gained a new republic, the third), but I agree with your other post : Germany did loose WWI to the Allies and this war is anything but a defeat for France (well, I know some who won't agree with that...).

"The Black Monk" wrote in message om... He means the Franco-Prussian war. That's one. What are the other two? France was defeated by Germany in WWII (despite putting up a fight that was more heroic than the Americans had done in 100 years). WWI was a draw. Probably Germany WOULD have won had the Americans not entered the war. But, as the articles showed, not because of French lack of courage or fighting prowess. regards, BM |

The Black Monk wrote in message om... The French by Gary Brecher The new big thing on the web is all these sites with names like "I Hate France," with supposed datelines of French military history, supposedly proving how the French are total cowards. If you want to see a sample of this dumbass Frog bashing, try this: Yeah and the French were ruled by gay kings and lead by mentally-ill girls, should we treat the French as if that ancient history is still current? And America is led by a mildly retarded "dry drunk" who, like a one year old, almost choked to death on a pretzel. Prior to that it was led by a degenerate hillbilly who was getting blow jobs from a fat chick while on the phone with senators. Etc. etc. Maybe we should. -- Scott The below must be a joke, right? -------- "Interestingly, we started to lose this war only after the embedded reporters pulled out. Back when we got the news directly from Iraq, Er...from the army. there was victory and optimism. Now that the news is filtered through the mainstream media here in America, all we hear is death and destruction and quagmire..." Ann Coulter http://www.anncoulter.com/columns/2003/091703.htm This bitch should have worked for Pravda 20 years ago. She's a typical, aggressively unattractive and tasteless American woman. Actually, no. She would have to put on another 80 lbs. to be a typical American "Jennifer". BM |
