    Well well wellity well look who came crawling back... oh how the tables have turned. Oh how the de gaullist stance has about-faced. Okay I'm done.

    Seriously good for them. It's pretty much symbolic anyway. Now lets go kill some more pirates.

    here comes terrorism to France...

    Христе Боже распети и свети, Српска земља кроз облаке лети. Лети преко небеских висина, Крила су јој Морава и Дрина.
    На три свето и на три саставно,Одлазимо на Косово равно.
    Кад је драга да одлазим чула,За ревер ми невен заденула.
    Збогом први нерођени сине, Збогом ружо, збогом рузмарине. Збогом лето, јесени и зимо. Одлазимо да их победимо.

    Some good can come out of this. The French military commanders in Kosovo have about as much love for the KLA government in power as the Serbs do. So who knows...
    "Mors Certa, Hora Incerta."

    "We are a brave people of a warrior race, descendants of the illustrious Romans, who made the world tremor. And in this way we will make it known to the whole world that we are true Romans and their descendants, and our name will never die and we will make proud the memories of our parents." ~ Despot Voda 1561

    "The emperor Trajan, after conquering this country, divided it among his soldiers and made it into a Roman colony, so that these Romanians are descendants, as it is said, of these ancient colonists, and they preserve the name of the Romans." ~ 1532, Francesco della Valle Secretary of Aloisio Gritti, a natural son to Doge

    I expect nothing of it. All the NATO countries are bummed by the US so its not like they can do anything on their own.

    Yeah, because France is so inexperienced at fighting terrorism....

    Surrendering to terrorists is not the same thing as engaging them, Hotspur!

    So does this change anything? France was already involved in the War[s] on 'Terror'

    Strange world this is. I bet the British would be even more eager to get out now.

    I cannot possibly see any favorable outcome for a NATO victory if france is included. Unless NATO is searching for a major fashion upgrade, expect little ingenuity from their inclusion.

    at frenchies...

    Sigh i hope you're joking here. I'm British so technically i should consider the French a useless bunch of surrender monkey's. But come on this reputation that France has suddenly gained is stupid. France was and is a powerful country and unfortunately for powerful countries they tend to make powerful enemies such as my own country and unfortunately the Germans in 1939. But today it is an important power in the North Atlantic so France in NATO is brilliant, one step closer to removing this stupid Nationalistic idiocracy from the world.
