Your are making the world a lot of **** because no more than 3000
people have been killed on your nbational soil....
Come here in the eastern part of France, and then you may perhaps me
realize what a real war means for the civilians...

Ah, Nemo, mon vieux, we have. Twice, in the last 100 years. And shed
quite a bit of blood to help you have it back. (And aided you in
Indochina, and Algeria, for all the good that did us.) We don't need
to fight a war on our own soil every 50 years or so to remind us that,
if we're going to be fighting, we'd rather do it on somebody else's
soil.
