After that, because the French position causes the masks to fall off: the Americans can no longer say that is acts in the name of morality.

LOL!!!! That's REALLY a laugh riot!!! Here's a nation that sold one of the most "dual-use" forms of nuclear reactors to Iraq (as well as 25kg of near weapons grade uranium), accounts for 22% of all goods sold to Iraq, and is looking at a TREMENDOUS business relationship with Saddam involving OIL.. and they have the gall to claim that we do not act in the "name of morality"???

Yet it is the US, and some 30 other nations around the world, who are the only ones willing to enforce UNSC resolutions with "all necessary means" after 12 years of France trying to shuffle them under the rug...

If anything, it shows that France has no moral spine when it comes to principal over economics.. Saddam, for them, is a great customer for their goods.
