For a Gaullist like Prez Jacques Chirac --himself a veteran of the Algerian war-- it would have been a grave, unforgivable mistake, indeed a betrayal of De Gaulle's legacy, for France to entangle herself once again in another colonial occupation of a sovereign Arab country... Yet, as I pointed out, Germans are not inhibited by such historical qualms. Hence the trial balloon floated by some dissenting voices:

I would not be surprised if Germany joined the coalition if Bush were gone. Even with that, I expect it would be a token effort.....maybe as part of a NATO force.......because so many Germans were against invading Iraq.
