Actually Nadine, they thought an invasion unlikely because they knew it to be pointless since there were no WMD Oh for crying out loud, GST. Why do you think France gave a damn about WMD one way or the other? Do you really believe - seriously and with a straight face - that France was protecting Saddam because they thought he was innocent? Saddam was no innocent. And all France cared about was the money. If they could have made money by the invasion, they would have been all for it. You haven't answered my question - supposing there was indisputable evidence that Saddam was a threat, that he was really supporting Al Qaeda - do you think it would have swayed France's course?
