Thank you! Chin up, gang! This is ging to be a long, hard slog, but putting the truth out there is vital. Good job!

By no way, 9/11 was a war ! WWI was a war. 900 french died every day.

Meaning 2 WTC attacks per day during 4 lenghty yrs.

And 1200 german soldiers too.

Thanks Antoine for illustrating my point about the French. Maybe when Europe is hit by an Iranian nuclear bomb, you'll get what I mean.

Btw, I never said 9/11 "was a war". Also more than 3000 people died that day.

Antoine: you're at an English-speaking weblog. Do us all a favor, write in English so that everyone can have fun too.

Sorry, my english is kind of rusty. Can read it pretty well but cannot write. I´m able to read in french, italian, spanish, portuguese, english, german... and I think it´s quite the same for everyone, I mean, come on, we´re able to read, (or listen to) many european languages but, obviously, it´s more difficult to write.

I bet you have far more non english speaking readers than you can imagine. You should accept posts in spanish, french, german, italian since you´re certainly able to read them. I travel quite often to Chile, Argentina, Uruguay : on tv, for instance, when they interview, let´s say, the coach of brazilian soccer team, they answer the questions in spanish, then the coach who understands spanish perfectly without speaking it, answer in portuguese and the spanish speaking channels don´t translate nor subtitle what the guy is saying in portuguese. That´s the way it works nowadays. And in my humble opinion, you should tolerate posts in others languages than english. But of course, such decision belongs to you. Unfortunately you´re loosing all my sound ideas about Iran and its bomb.

Sorry for my poor english.

Visibly not, since you didn't understand what I wrote.

Look, I don't want any French whiner (sorry for the redundance) on my blog so either you write in English or you get out. I don't care what languages you pretend or you think you can understand.

Oh, but I think you don't get it (again). People who have interesting things to say, in relation with the posts here, are perfectly allowed to post in another language, even in Polish and Russian. Trolls like you aren't. You have to abide by the rules. See? That's the beauty of owning stuff: you do whatever you want with them.

I travel quite often to Chile, Argentina, Uruguay : on tv, blah blah blah

I-don't-care. Another rule: stay on topic.

Unfortunately you´re loosing all my sound ideas about Iran and its bomb.

No, I just want others to laugh too. English is universal you know. And those weren't ideas. Barely stupid comments that could come from the 5-yr-old child of a die-hard communist couple.

Sorry for my poor english.

You can certainly be sorry for yourself.

Big question is :

Is the Ayatollah bomb as lethal as Saddam WMD ?

Can´t sleep well at night. I´m very scared.

I propose we send the USeleSS Army there. They´re offering us quite a decent show in Iraq (funny as long as you don´t have to risk your life yourself there) and we´re all waiting impatiently the persian version.

Come on ! Don´t be chickens and invade that country would ya ?

the USeleSS Army

Like in 1917 and 1944?

Don´t insult the brave soldiers of WWI and WWII !

I didn't. You did.

Gee ! How old are you ? Look younger than me and my 20 something.

There is a huge difference between WWII and the present war.

By no way, Saddam was Hitler.

Saddam didn´t represent any threat not even for his neighbors. As one coloumnist of the NYT said "let´s face it : we fought against the flintstones"

Hitler was leader of one of the strongest world economic powers. And he decided to go to war.

As far as we known, Saddam has no WMD, no relation with Ben Laden, etc... Today, Colin Powell is ashamed of his UN show.

So what you´re fighting for ?

This war is already lost. Of course, you can stay there forever and keep wasting blood and money. But what for ?

hey kiddie, there were plenty of relations, today evidenced by official Iraqi documents, between Al-Qaeda and Saddam.

Just because your media are lying to you - or that you are too young to read anything else than Pif Gadget - doesn't make it less true.

Now get out of this blog, will you?

Also,

Saddam didn´t represent any threat not even for his neighbors. As one coloumnist of the NYT said "let´s face it : we fought against the flintstones"

No threat? Who wrote that? Jayson Blair?

Another rule: substantiate your claims with links or risk being deleted again.

Saddam invaded Kuwait, fought a war with Iran that saw casualties somewhere near the two million mark, and killed hundreds of thousands of his own people. His neighbors feared him.

Hitler was not one of the strongest world economic powers; the Treaty of Versailles insured that. Everyone was blaming Germany's economic woes on the Jews, remember? Or didn't you ever know?

Illegal missile engines were shipped out of Iraq after the war which turned up in European scrap yards. A uranium enrichment centrifuge was dug up from the back yard of an Iraqi scientist, where he had been ordered to hide it. A sarin gas shell was found being used by insurgents as an IED. Hundreds of artillery shells for the dispersal of a binary gas like sarin were found. Cluster bombs designed to deliver chemical or biological agents were found. A highly radioactive building was found, with no explanation for the radiation. There were still unanswered discrepencies between Iraq's WMD disclosure and the weapons actually destroyed. Sounds like WMD to me.

Saddam payed out $10 million to families of suicide bombers and other terrorists. He gave a commercial airliner body to Abu Nidal at Salmon Pak for terrorist training, and allowed him to run a camp in Iraq. He gave refuge and medical treatment to al-Zarqawi. Sounds like terror connections to me.

Perhaps Colin Powell is ashamed to have believed the French-fed intelligence that said Saddam was trying to buy uranium.

Given that you don't even know what the war's about however, it should not surprise me that you knew none of this.

Happy quagmire guys !

Carine, Doug, I do salute your enduring courage to expose the same facts to lil' brain-washed kids, again and again and again...

But ideological brain-washing is not the only point in the case of our archetypal crackpot troll such as Antoine. There are two other points:
- Never ever accept change: the world is static and changing that by any mean is a bad thing, because change is actually a challenge to their comfort and understanding of the world. Want to kick dictators' butt? They reply "Saddam killed his own people, it's none of our problem" -- let him keep on killing. Arabs have been threatening Israel for 50 years, "How dare you change that, zionist pigs?" -- let them keep on bleeding. Third world is very quickly empowering by embracing free markets and globalization? "It's American neo-colonialism and unfair competition." -- let them keep on starving.
- Racism. Even if they don't accept it, antiwar-mongers are racist. America wiped out Talebans and Saddam, freely and democratically elected governments are called "US puppets." As I often heard and read here, "Democracy is not for Arabs". You see, for enlighted peace-mongers, the liberated people are unable of acting for their own sake, they are considered irresponsible manipulated dorks. Liberating people is bad, above all if done by the US. Assisting them in their indigence is good, preferably by the mean of the UN.

Or by force of French expeditions to prop up pet tinpots.

Antoine: It hasn't been 1973 for over 30 years now. Despite the left's best efforts, there are enough people capable of learning from history to prevent then from creating another quagmire.

One question: who had slaughtered more people (both his own and foreigners), Saddam by the time America declared war on Iraq in 2001 (or even in 1990) or Hitler in 1939? If the pacifist model is to be followed (and thank God London and Paris didn't do so), England and France should have left Germany alone.

But none of that hardly matters to Antoine, who shows his prejudices, his partisanship, and his real face here...

Pour Antoine, les phrases ironiques remplacent toute tentative de débat. Cela dit, il ne dit pas (comme il semble le croire sur son pédestal) qu'il n'y a pas de menaces, il dit qu'ils sont ailleurs :

"Israël et les USA ... principales menaces pour la paix dans le monde ... Ce duo maléfique"

Voilà donc, pour Antoine, les menaces pour le monde étatiste et socialiste et humaniste. Il semble avoir bien plus peur de "ce duo maléfique" que nous autres de Ben laden (ce qui, il est vrai, est entièrement inapproprié)...

Oui, Antoine, c'est vrai : devant "ce duo maléfique", on trrrrrrrrrrrrrremble !

Oui, Antoine, c'est vrai : devant "ce duo maléfique", on trrrrrrrrrrrrrremble !

Sondage euro-baromètre de l´UE. Officiel. Mené dans chaque pays de l´Union. Tous les citoyens de chacun des pays ont désigné les USA et les sionistes comme les plus graves menaces pour la paix. Vous êtes libre de ne pas croire ces sondages.

"L’enquête concernait les " menaces pour la paix dans le monde " telles qu’appréhendées par les opinions européennes. Une majorité de citoyens de l’UE mettent Israël (59 %) en première place (..)Par pays, le sondage indique que les Néerlandais ont été les plus nombreux (74 %) à citer Israël comme une menace, tandis que les Italiens se sont déclarés les moins préoccupés (48 %). Les résultats ont été dénoncés par les autorités israéliennes avant même leur parution officielle, le ministre en charge des relations avec la diaspora, Nathan Chtcharansky, parlant de " lavage de cerveau qui vise à diaboliser Israël ". Côté Washington, Adam Ereli, porte-parole du département d’État, proclame que " les faits " démentent " les perceptions " des Européens. Le sondage, réalisé en octobre par EOS Gallup Europe auprès d’un échantillon de 7 515 personnes, révèle aussi que plus des deux tiers (68 %) des Européens estiment " injustifiée " la guerre en Irak"

Sortez la tête des chiottes quand vous voulez.

Antoine,

Comme d'habitude, aucune source, aucun lien, juste des grossièretés, tout ce dont vous êtes mentalement capable.

Demandez donc à "mémé", je suis sûre que la vôtre vous confirmera aussi qu'en 1933-39, à l'époque, les juifs étaient déjà - en Europe - la plus grande menace à la paix. En France, on était d'accord avec les nazis. Déjà à l'époque...

En attendant, quel est le continent qui a causé les deux guerres mondiales et les deux totalitarismes du 20ème siècle à l'origine de centaines de millions de morts ?
Non, ni l'Amérique, ni les "Sionistes".

En attendant, il est vrai que les Français sont très appréciés, eux, partout dans le monde. Un premier exemple. Un second exemple.

Antoine, à partir de maintenant, soit vous donnez des sources ET liens pour justifier les énormités que vous débitez de votre trou paumé d'Argentine, ET vous le faites en anglais, soit vous dégagez d'ici.
