This is a little much even for me
I was sitting here this morning catching up the reading I didn't get to do this week. I found this very extreme conspiracy theory about the French nuclear threat in the case of war against Iraq.
Now I'll be the first to admit that Jacques "Iraq" Chirac has lost his mind. He has already sold the Spaghetti-Os (Franco-American) relationship up the river to protect his buddy Saddam. But I really don't think that there is a snowball's chance that he's going to actually try to pop a nuke on us. It's bad enough that he's helped Saddam to drink the hemlock, but I really don't see Chirac doing the same. For Jacques, it's all fun and games until he gets hurt.
All that being said, we probably should keep a little tighter rein on the French missile boats. And should they even so much as make us think they might do something, we need to send them down to Davy Jones locker. Someone needs to tell Jacques "Iraq" that he is on a very short leash. Perhaps we should suggest a French naval surrender exercise. They can spend the next two weeks practicing mooring the boats to the dock.
