Are you telling me no French officials ever met with Saddam? They sold him a nuclear reactor, but no one met him? It's just not true.

Did I say that ? *shrug*

The US never supported Al-Qeuta or Osama. The US supported the Mujhahaddin in Afganistan against the Soviets (sp?), and Osama may have acted with those Freedom Fighters, but the US did not support Osama and Al-Queta.

Some history now : USA had the choice to support Massoud's forces, who were modered muslims, or some others, including Osama, who were, already back then, real zealots. They choosed the zealots.
So yeah there is indeed somewhere a real irony that USA is having problems right now with people they did support.

Obviously, France has just as much an "act first, think after" history as anyone else.
