Liars wars and weakness

[Inchante]

I had mixed feelings...It would have been ideal if France had fully supported the embargo but I also recognized the long ongoing relationship between the two countries and when I am in the neutral seat it is usally because I can understand both sides.

France did fully support the embargo, at least on paper and in the U.N. After the Polish found the weapons, the French stated they sold the weapons to Iraq before the 1991 embargo. But the weapons were marked 2003. The only reason the French managed to get away with it is because they intimidated the Polish, who had found the weapons, and threatening to bar their entry into the European Union if they did not cease their accusation.

On the other hand, the United States could have pressured the Polish to make a false accusation against the French in order to discredit them for their opposition to the war. Poland is, after all, the sight of Europe's American built missile shield.

But now I'm getting into conspiracy theories.
