You Must Not Have Had Any English History

Mark Eby — 9/4/2004 9:21:16 PM (archived)

We study English history here because the French lost so often, otherwise we'd learn a lot more French history. Please tell me when you last saw the French play a decisive miltary role. They did nothing but whine about the Yugoslavian mess until they could rely on US firepower despite their desire for a European solution.

Regards,
Mark
