With friends like this….

Dead jellyfish with Calais slim on. He’s a politician so most of what he says is posturing.

I must admit I like the French independent attitude to life, but please don’t critisize us mate.

It is interesting to note that France’s top military unit is composed entirely of foreigners.

One thing that struck me was the reference to the Germans. Why are the English so completely obsessed with Nazi Germany???? It is 50 years on and the German friends I have are anything but Hitler sympathisers. It was a tragic part of history but Europe has moved on since then and so has Germany.

Oh well, go on Chris. Now we all know the germans are all still Nazis (never knew that, concerning myself as a german), the french are all cowardly sissies (just because they didn’t brown-nose Bush and didn’t went with “hoo hooray” to Iraq), and the russians? Oh I’m sure you think they’re still commies, right?
Thank god, not every one in Britain thinks like you. Otherwise your island would be isolated from every other nation. Or it would be swallowed as the 51st state from your beloved big brother, the USA.

Kath and Tobe! Here is a tip from Big Brother. If you are going to comment, read the post.

@Troy Worman: Did I miss something? It was a (not very funny) joke from an old man, for heavens sake. I always thought the british are famous for their humor, but what Chris writes shows more unreflected imbecile hate than a good sense of humor. It shows that Chris doesn’t understand anything: Offence causes offence, violence causes violence and war causes war. Will you understand someday and break the cycle, or are you intellectual still stuck in the stone-age (”He hit me, so I strike back. And my club is bigger than his, har, har!”)? I can only shake my head and agree with Chris’ Thread: “With friends like this…”
