The French and their products...
Complete list of French products and French owned companies. If you are as
unhappy with France's President Chirac as I am, here is your chance to
participate in a meaningful expression of support for our military and
government in its action against Iraq and the action of the French in
obstructing US efforts.
France has every right to disagree with America, but France has moved from
simple dissent to active hostility toward America. France's President Chirac
warned East European nations that if they sided with the US, France would
oppose their membership in the European Union.
This very week, William Safire reported in the New York Times that France
has been secretly helping to arm Iraq and has been helping Iraq build long
range missiles. These same missiles may NOW possibly be used ! against our
own US soldiers. Just as France has exercised its right to disagree, all
Americans can exercise their right to boycott countries that do not stand
with us.
