Nobody likes to be harassed for standing by principles."

Right, principles, oh yeah. Well if France announced tommorrow all debts with former Iraqi regime were cancelled, that would go a long way towards clearing up the issue. Instead it's likely France will do all it can to try to transfer these "obligation" to the new Iraq- and they will of course fail miserably and will be finally forced "to do the right thing"- then there could still be some who actually think they then did this because of principles. There's a sucker born every minute.
The old Iraq is gone. It's in the ground and buried.
