It's one of the best, IMHO. Canada's is also great.

PS: L'anglais n'est que du français mal prononcé. Georges Clémenceau. Isn't the English language something like half French?

Isn't the English language something like half French? Half French, half Norman, half Angeln and half Saxon - oh, and even some Roman. The mix is such, that you need a melting pot with a volume of at least 200 %.

What needs to be done is very easy: Support Assad, and the Problem is gone within 3 Months... but do we really want to do that? Indeed, it's a no-win choice there. We're close enough to a proxy war with Putin as it is. It's a shame that the only reasonable response is to kill as many ISIS troops as possible. Then they can recruit more disaffected young men, kill more innocents, and we bomb the crap out of them again. I guess if they want to be martyrs, we'll just have to oblige and arrange the meeting... I'd call them idiots (they are), but this level of wickedness is way past that. I'll NOT hesitate to call them ungodly cowards, though. I'm glad that apparently all our friends are ok. We stand with you, France.
