I wasn't refering to when the Americans joined WW1 and WW2.
I was referring to France's Political stances. They always seem to want more proof before they act. Take the Franco Prussian War for example. Germany was totally prepared to kick ass while what did the French do? They just chilled eating their Fries and drinking their skunk water.
WW1 I don't count since it was all treaties that started the war. "If you attack here then my country will attack you." That kind of shit.
WW2 on the other hand, France should have reacted when Germany initially marched into the Rhine Land and violated the treaty of Varsailles. Had France Racted to that violation the Germans wouldn't have offered that much resistance since the troops that marched in didn't have enough ammo to make an effective stand.
Once again, the French blundered. Thinking that Hitler wouldn't attack Poland and they wanted more proof before they reacted. So then in all the French Wisdom they built their wall that was suspossed to hold the Germans. But hey, here is something the French didn't think of, Instead of attacking a full frontal assault like they were suspossed to, the Germans cheated and went around the wall. Those Bastards!! Before the French knew it, the Germans were walking down the streets of Paris and Hitler was doing his little victory dance.
Fast Forward a few years to Vietnam. Once again the Frenchies said that they needed more proof that the Viet Cong had a massive Army. So what happened? Dien Ben Phu. The French were cutoff and after a nice little fireworks display the French were out of Vietnam.
What is the point? The point is throughout history the Frenchies needed more proof before they decide to act. Little too late the French always got their asses kicked. Its the same thing now, they didn't want to help us when we asked for it, so fuck em! Don't let them say shit after post war Iraq.

Oh BTW Simo Häyhä this isn't alittle war who has 1 point and who doesnt. This is a nice conversation. Don't start anything you can't finish son. I don't wnat to turn this into a flame war.
