France won't join Canadian troops in Kandahar

They must have run out of white flags...

France, you are nothing but a disapointment.

they know its a useless cause.. a no win situation... Canada is the only suckers who are hanging in... c'est la vie..

They're doing the CF a mighty big favour.

Not surprising... the last thing the French think about is honour, being selfless, aiding allies in need.

As bad as some Quebecers may piss us off sometimes, understand that the French are ten times worse.

FFS even Poland is giving us more help than France, which is supposedly a "major NATO country".

We should keep a running tab of how many times the French dick us around, and then when THEY need something, rub it in their lousy faces.

You're all pretty quick to call them cowards, simply because they are french

They were all pretty quick to sing their praises just a short while ago when the initial announcement was made.

Seems like the people crying about the french don't deserve to be supported anyway.

A quick google seems to show that there is a fair amount of military activity in eastern Afghanistan. Maybe the French ain't such cowards...
