Like it or not, I have to believe that the powers that be, know more about the true situation than we do. I also have to believe that France's motivation is much more driven by financial concerns than humanitarian. The french dont care about the iraqi people any more than they care about the US or cuba for that matter. They do care about money, it makes the world go round, in france as well as elsewhere. I am also thinking that the French are scared about having illegal dealings with iraq being uncovered.

I believe many countries are not publicly supporting the US based on public sentiment at home, but privately offering support because they cannot tell us all of the story.

Just my two cents and mine alone.
