Some would say that it's getting ridiculous.
But there is a french quote that said "Le ridicule ne tue pas."
Translation : "What is ridiculous doesn't kill you."
Here's another French quote; "We surrender!"
Rubbish. The French have a long and proud military history, and currently holds what may well be the largest military force in Europe. In case you are American (and you may not be,) I'll point out that without French assistance the American colonists may very well not have gained independence from the British crown.
To be fair, they did in 1939 as well......
Aye, they did as did many other countries, my fatherland included. Yet they are hardly the first country to suffer setbacks in a military conflict. The might of the US could not secure Vietnam; there were various reasons for this and one could argue that it was not an all-out-war for the US since not all US military assets were used (i.e. no nuclear weapons were deployed). Still, for many it would seem at least as embarassing on the surface considering how backwards North Vietnam was. The point being that we are not just a product of our victories nor our setbacks; we are a product of both and to judge anyone or anything solely on one or a handful of incidents out of a much larger background is not only potentially misleading, it can also be downright disingenuous.
Really? still going on about the french? look you're going to rack up a few wins when you play both sides. French would have claimed victory if Germany had won ww2. (Vichy). Look up Ho Chi Minh, he was an ally in WW2 & French whined to US they wanted their colony back. US took the French military to Vietnam on our boats, yea french pulled us into that. Now enough real world sh**, just couldn't help w/ my 2 cents. Now. Tali, Tali, Tali, Tali.
