I'm french (from Canada) and I'm a bit tired of the 'french haters'... Frenches helped Americans during the war for independence against the British... They fought along Americans in World Wars... They give Americans the "Statue of Liberty" but, simply put : What's the difference between a French and an English? Both are HUMANS, having a SHORT TRIP on planet earth, trying to make this trip as enjoyable as possible, but, one is living this trip speaking French, the other one, English... In the end, both will die...We should concentrate on what we have in common, not the contrary... :)
An English guy walks into a bar with his pet crocodile.
He asks the barman "Do you serve Frogs?%u201D
The barman replies "Sir! This is 2007, we are not racist in this establishment!, we serve Frogs, Coons, Paddies or anyone else for that matter!"
"Good" says the guy with the crocodile; " I'll have a beer and my crocodile will have a Frog!"
Just a note: The Frrench didn't really help us in world War 2, they were kinda crushed by the Germans and we had to help them along with the British. Although they did put up a good fight in world War 1
You sound like a communist, perhaps a visit to www.theranter.com for a better forum to argue?
For a start, the words French & World Wars just dont go together.
France & Occupied go together though, because thats what you did, sit back and let the Germans make themselves at home.
Meanwhile, the British had to sneak over the channel, get bombarded by the Germans before eventually overcoming the Germans to save the French's bone idle back sides.
I was infuriated when they built the channel tunnel, I personally would have built a four hundred foot high wall with a million vaults running through it instead of a tunnel.
The British gave you freedom and in return you gave us illegal immigrants and prior to that, the threat of rabies.
Britian, tiny small island had to leave our own shores to bail out the French in their own back yard.
FACT.
No less than 300.000 soldiers.
So it wasn't just France that got overrun.
And secondly, they deserved to be overrun.
It's not like there was any doubt about the intentions of this allied army... the allies had already declared war.
And they had declared it using a pretext that doesn't make any sense.
I just try to get them better informed about how things really were.
They were like this, the Nazis rounded up millions of jews, drove them to cruel labour, split mothers from children, wives from husbands and then gassed them.
& The Allies came in to eventually defeat this evil race.
Its not rocket science is it?
My grandfather fought in the war and he had several medals which he passed to me prior to him sadly passing away. I always remember when he spoke of the war, he spoke fondly of many of the UK's Allies but he always spoke of the French with a forked tongue and I think he was qualified enough to comment being as he was actively involved.
The French did f*** all with regards fighting, they sat around waiting and praying the Allies would bail them out.
Your comments of..."It's not like there was any doubt about the intentions of this allied army... the allies had already declared war.
And they had declared it using a pretext that doesn't make any sense. "..... make no sense to me at all, are you saying that the Allies had no reason, a pretext that made no sense???
Did they need a f******g reason other than the Nazis were evil f******g scum ???
Get real Mimir2.
Not if you want the allies to look like anything but warmongering maniacs.
Poland was a dictatorship created by the allies where people had been executed by the tens of thousands, or ever since 1919, for the sole crime of speaking their thoughts.
Millions of Germans were denied to live under democratic Germany of 1919 and placed under dictatorial Poland specifically to make Germany weaker and more divided.
The British, knowing they could drag the usa with them, were going to destroy Germany if the German people would unite.
Divide and conquer was the heart of the British foreign policy for centuries.
The Scots, the Irish, the Africans, the middle east and pretty much all of Asia and Africa has, over the centuries had to pay for that.
If the war had been about fighting evil, the allies would not have supported Joseph Stalin.
He had just finished murdering 15 million people.
If it had been about the polish regime, the allies also would have declared war on the Soviet Union as well, for it invaded Poland as well.
Kinda weird when two empires split up a country and thats used as an excuse to declare war on one of them.
Gives it away that the stated reason is not the real one.
So yes, defending a dictatorship the allies had created themselves to weaken Germany was a lame excuse to throw the world into an all out war.
And obviously just a pretext.
Of course, such scribes do justice enough to give excuse for the Nazis to gas millions of innocent folks.
I would.
Adolf Hitler was convinced he was fighting a Jewish conspiracy.
It seems like he was right all along.
I'm not sure though.
How many Jews were there in the governments of Britain and USA at the time and how Jewish was the control of the allied weapons industry at the time?
Does anybody know?
The USA and Britain have always appeared very Jewish dominated.
Adolf Hitler's last note before killing himself:
Hitler's final political statement
Just read the first four clauses, they're very interesting. And it's probably all true except for Germany's will in WWI (paragraph 1).
Another case in support of him is that right after WWII the allies gave Palestine to the Jews.
Which hints they really ARE Jewish dominated.
And ever since then American taxpayers have been partially financing Jewish interests.
I totally understand the anger.
And the allies themselves had committed far greater crimes than the Germans in 1939, making the claim that a war should be made because the Germans are evil very weak.
And it wasn't even the reason in the first place.
It is quite obvious and evident that you are more educated than I regards the war and its reasons.
Having said that, back at the heading of this post is the argument for likeing the French.
My opinions of the french during the war will never be altered, just as the majority of the UK's wont, they will always be the 'lazy, occupied, white towellers' French.
Regards Hitlers suicide notes/letter, whos to say this is the truth or hasnt been edited in any way? Also he would never admit that they, the Gremans, had done any wrong anyway.
Do you honestly believe the world would have been a better place for us all to live following a German victory in the 2nd war ???
That's where the real problem is.
Discovery channel supports the claim that Germany was always trying to negotiate peace with the west, and that multiple tries were made to get peace but the allies were determined to make a war.
It was a very convincing documentary, it didn't seem like propaganda.
Those in charge would make so much more money on a war than they would make on peace.
Which was most likely the real reason.
We're seeing the exact same situation today,
the USA, with it's propaganda machine, manufacturing a war that can justify huge military spendings (read money laundry).
It's been many countries since then.
This time, it's Iran.
And we're gonna see the whole thing repeat itself yet again again.
Right after WWII, it was the Soviet Union that suddenly turned into the bad guy,
only a few months after their collapse, it was Iraq, right when Iraq went down, it was Iran.
It's a very clear pattern.
An enemy is needed to justify all this theft.
And the palaces in USA will only grow bigger and meanwhile people's feelings are literally manufactured under the cover of ignorance.
And those who are frustrated with this get labeled by the propaganda machine as jealous.
Your quote : "typical Frenchy, full of yourself and thinking your country's great when in fact it's a haven for lazy socialists."
I adapt my level of arrogance to the ones I'm communicating with... I'm not from France (never did) but I know that the 'socialist party' has less than 10% of voters... yeah, a socialists country... find a proper school... I'm offering you a chance to open your narrow mind, don't miss it, it's free...
Muslims generally feel animosity to jews, and vice versa. There are many muslims in france. Do the freaking math. I never said it is acceptable, but it is realistic.
Weather a statement of superiority is true or not doesn't affect weather it's arrogant or not.
A statement can be true and arrogant, both at the same time.
Aren´t you guys going to inform me that i am wrong and tell me why?
I know there are a lot of Jews, Britons and Yankees out there who´s interest is not in coming to the conclusion i have shown above.
Speak up!
Is the world really the way i see it?
Or am i just wasting my time here speaking to people who can never teach me anything?
To throw the entire world into an all out war just so that a few westerners can profit a lot of money.
And who has difficulty understanding the rage against this crime?
The rage Hitler was experiencing.
Speak up all you Jews/Americans/Britons out there!
Defend your great nation/race who´s actions are envied by everybody, according to your own media and consequently, a lot of your people as well.

... I can go on like this for hours but it would be pretty much futile... exactly like this debate is...
1.a belief or doctrine that inherent differences among the various human races determine cultural or individual achievement, usually involving the idea that one's own race is superior and has the right to rule others.
2.a policy, system of government, etc., based upon or fostering such a doctrine; discrimination.
3.hatred or intolerance of another race or other races.
(#3 is important here...)
Now the definition of race (it's long so I'll put the ones that will be useful right now:
5.any people united by common history, language, cultural traits, etc.: the Dutch race.
9. any group, class, or kind, esp. of persons: Journalists are an interesting race.
(#9 'any group' is important here)
Now to answer your question : The U.S republicans had a racist leader (probably still have), George Bush (father) when he said : %u201CNo, I don't know that atheists should be considered as citizens, nor should they be considered as patriots. This is one nation under God%u201D. Again, before telling me that atheism has nothing to do with culture and/or skin color (the narrow minded definition of 'race') , I refer you to the real definition of race that I've partially included here (that's 'any group'). By the way have a look here (a bit out of the subject but cool...) : http://youtube.com/watch?v=fdVucvo-kDU
%u201CAlso, you didn't answer the question, you said "Officially I'm a Quebecer so I'm not a french", I didn't ask you what you were officially, I asked you what you felt you were Canadian or French, you've given me your Nationality not what you feel.%u201D Ok, well, I thought I was clear : I consider myself to be exactly the same 'thing' that I am, that's a Quebecer (or a French Canadian is you prefer).
Thanks for the 'DR' precision... your story doesn't prove us that frenches are inferior or more stupid than other's, it proves us that SOME frenches are more stupid or inferior than other's (as there are some Americans, English, Canadians, Australians...). You pointed out a small goup of frenches (the leader(s) of this operation) ,out of the 60 000 000 out there, to prove to me that frenches are more stupid or lower than others, think about it for a minute, it's ridiculous... I'm sure that I can find a full load of stupid things happening in england as I can find a full load in France, humans are good at doing stupid things...

Anyways, These two bitches are toooo much! All they do is yell their Tard-Lingo and grab their titts. It is very funny but also sad because they don't know no better. They are the Retards that reming me of you two.
Do you gals wanna meet in the chat room?
Do French chicks like Malt Liquer? I hope soo.
~~METHOS~~
You jack-ass!
yeah, maybe 150 years ago
"What is the shortest book ever written?.......................French War Heroes" Yeah right, there are two war heroes in human history that share the 1st place... One is Alexander the Great and the other is... You guessed it, Napoleon Bonaparte, the genius french military leader...
For your information... we are actually a little bit south of the arctic circle.
Proof
That way there would be no language problems.
the British were beaten, not once, not twice.. but three times in a row by whom?
The cod wars
I guess numbers count for nothing when fighting Icelanders in the north Atlantic waters.
Whatever each individuals thoughts, it is simply a FACT that the majority of English folks think that the French were and are.. COWARDS.
Say what you like, that notion of the French is instilled in every self respecting Englishman whom had forefathers in the war.
I bid you good day.
