La Belle France

Just when things are going less horribly for the better  (I think) guys, the French foreign minister is telling NATO what a bad job it's doing running the Libya war. He is Alain Juppe. He may be best remembered as the politician convicted of felony theft of taxpayers' money.

NATO General Mark Van Uhm, a Hollander,  told him to bugger off. That counts as a score for the Dutch if you ask me.

Meanwhile, France and Britain are bickering about sending aid to alleviate the misery in Misrata. Wouldn't they just.  Five gets you ten the snit is about who tells Uncle Sam that he's expected to foot the bill.

Oh good, at least (or at last - it's inevitable) they're fighting amongst each other as they being snot-brained Europeans should. If we're lucky a war will break out on the continent again.

If the Yurps decide to duke it out again, we need to remember my buddy JAGC's soluton. We broadcast over VOA:

"Hello Yurp. This is America calling. Good luck. Tell the last man standing to have his girl call our girl.

That is all."
