Anyone else heard this? Supposedly some French companies have been illegally selling arms and parts to Iraq over the past couple years...Could this have a connection to why the French don't want us going in? Will/should this change their stance? If these arms are of the "mass destruction" class, is that the proof we need for a UN OK? I, as a US citizen, hope we do get the official OK-DOKEY from the UN to go in, but I also hope if we don't get it in a reasonable amount of time, we go in anyway. I wish the need to go was NOT present, or that diplomatic means had worked, but I think the time for such things is past, the time to act is nigh.

I bet one of the moderators will move this post soon...to the temporary war forum. That's what it's there for! ;)

I haven't about that...shocks me if it's true, but I don't think France would do something like that, would they? I mean, with their stance on the war and everything...

EDIT: Sorry, misinterpreted(sp?). Companies selling it illegaly, sorry, but shouldn't the government be doing something about that? Man, these corrupt corporations, they only care about profit, that's what really rats me off. [img]graemlins/1pissed.gif[/img]

<font color="#ffccff">This isn't even news [img]smile.gif[/img] When they are flying Mirage Jets...it sort of indicates that they came from France...sort of like the Coneheads.....</font>

I wonder if the French sold them any white flags....

Two words: War Forum.

Go there and read up on it. Yes, France has sold military hardware to Iraq, before 1991 and since.

Not just the French guys, there have been more, including Germany and Russia, and most likely the Ukraine. It's not really news.

Oops, forgot all about the War Forum. I have never gone there, but I certainly will now.
