The French and Oil cnsnews.com “This is a great piece of journalism. Most Americans do not know the facts behind ‘Old Europe's peace at any cost’ attitudes towards Iraq, which are motivated by oil contracts. (France and Other US Allies 'in It for the Oil,' Security Experts Charge, January 27) Plainly, Europe's claim to peace-loving altruism is just a cover up for wanting to get rich on Arab oil money. Most people forget that France sold a nuclear bomb-making factory to Saddam about 25 years ago. The entire world owes Israel's Menachim Begin credit for bombing that French -Iraqi monstrosity out of existence. The entire world, including the US State Department, condemned Israel at the time. Where would we be today if Saddam had a nuclear bomb 10 or more years ago? The same Europe that wanted Saddam to have a nuclear bomb-making factory is against our plan to get rid of Saddam today. That same Europe is happy to allow Israel to be destroyed to mollify Islam, and to obtain commercial ties with oil-rich Arab states.” Dr. Milton F.
