Beastiality, homoeroticism and fart jokes. And here I thought France prided itself on being a very "high brow" country.

From the article:
Arnaud asked me about President Bush’s “axis of evil” speech. “Here in France we were flabbergasted. It reminded us of the poisonous pre-1914 rhetoric about révanche and the boches. Or of the anti-Asian ‘yellow peril’ rhetoric of the turn of the century. The French people reject such nationalist hoaxes and have reason to. Four million of our sixty million citizens are Muslim Arabs. You have third-generation Algerians working in this ministry. The moment we say ‘France is at war with an “axis of evil,”’ we lose these people. They become spies and terrorists. When we French talk about ‘nationalist hoaxes’ and say ‘never again,’ it’s not because we fear the Germans marching through the Arc de Triomphe a third time; it’s because a ‘clash of civilizations’ would rip apart French society.” France prefers police measures and aid. Arnaud gave the example of the EU’s Mediterranean Development Agency (MEDA), which has recently committed itself to disburse four billion dollars over two years to twelve Arab countries along the rim of Europe. The money will be used to foster development and human rights, create a free trade area, and promote security cooperation between police and military forces. “B-52s bombing Afghanistan, that’s not fighting terrorism,” said Arnaud. “This is."
Sadly, most people in the governments of the West fail to understand that their countries are in a state of decay. Committed liberals like Arnaud do not really take religion seriously, and they think bribing people, and spreading liberal ideas of democracy and human rights will easily pacify those who do not agree with their ideology or the cultural problems associated with it.

A long time ago, Britain and France were at war. During one battle, the French captured an English major. Taking the major to their headquarters, the French general began to question him. The French general asked, "Why do you English officers all wear red coats? Don't you know the red material makes you easier targets for us to shoot at?"
In his English way, the major informed the general that the reason English officers wear red coats is so that if they are shot, the blood won't show and the men they are leading won't panic.
And that is why from that day to now all French Army officers wear brown pants.
