Nicholas Sarkosy: The shame of the French people.

AP reports:

"A Libyan official said Thursday that Moammar Gadhafi's long-isolated country has signed contracts worth $405 million with French companies for missiles and communications equipment. . . The first contract, worth $230 million, is for Milan missiles, and the second, totaling $175 million, is for advanced Tetra communications and surveillance equipment for the police, said the Libyan official, speaking on condition of anonymity because he was not authorized to speak to the press. He did not reveal the names of the French companies."

Wow. what a grand moment for the French people. It's good to see Nicholas Sarkosy hasn't wasted any time getting into bed with Moammar Gadhafi, well known terrorist/dictator and murderer.

The lesson here is all you have to do to get the Western world's attention is to either, take hostages or blow up a passenger jet.

Oh and, by the way, have lot's of oil and gas.

Congratulations France, you have just elected your next Marshal Pétain!

You must be very proud.

The guy is a hell of a jogger, though. Reminds me of someone else . . .
