France demands respect over Iraq row

French Prime Minister Jean-Pierre Raffarin has pleaded for mutual respect amid a growing transatlantic rift over Iraq. But France also gave a curt reply to US Secretary of State Colin Powell's suggestion that France and Germany are opposing war with Iraq to get President Saddam Hussein "off the hook.""All this isn't serious," said Foreign Minister Dominique de Villepin, dismissing Powell's suggestion that France and Germany might have a hidden aim.

That's even more reason to get out of that stupid circus.

I wonder if Pol Pot, Mao, and Yosef Stalin got their turns to chair the human rights commission?

France? France on the Security Council with a veto is a bad joke. And it's time for France to finally completely withdraw from NATO.

The UN can fix their process or be a joke. They have no alternative.

There is one thing you can say for the UN: It has a real sense of humor.
