Gallic Gall

See, the reason we don’t understand the French is because we are a simple frontier cowboy people who lack their sophistication.  Which is why, sitting here eating beans by the chuckwagon with the other cowpokes, I’m having such a hard time figuring out why France would encourage Israel to attack Syria then get worked up about a disproportionate response to attacks by Hezbollah. Of course, I never quite got why they’d demand a ceasefire and promise to lead the peacekeeping force then take a powder at the critical moment, at least until the Italians shamed them back out of the boudoir.

    My personal theory is that they’re still pissed off about the Louisiana Purchase.

    Will you bloody Americans and Brits, please, please, please look the other way the next time the Germans get violently annoyed? Will you Germans and Brits please get together and exercise your proper role of thumping these annoying twerps from time to time?
