Not everyone is so petty as to try and punish political opponents with boycotts.

SC,
How much California wine do suppose Frenchmen buy?
The answer is a puny $13 million a year and we have a $7-8 billion deficit with France. That is a nut that needed addressing too. Fortunately the French made it easy.

Iraq is all about money as far as France is concerned and always has been.
The French could care less about oppression or freedom. They want their old and profitable contracts recognized.

Boycotts are not petty...they are a way of voting.
Doing business with friends has always been more fun. Supporting those who support you is good business.
