France's Next President?

Submitted by Epimeno, Nov 4, 2006 07:06

Most people think that France is opposing the US on moral grounds.They do not understand that France's negativism towards America is a cultural one.

Anyone with a slight idea of contemporary histoy will quickly understand the anger of the French.France has failed in so many areas where the US has faired in.American grandeur is what is troubling the French.Or better put,the Anglo-Saxon world is a primary French concern.

In the first place,France's expansionism failed woefully except in Africa where the whole continent is woefully held in the strong claws of French hypocritic foreign policies.France has succeeded in persuading the world that it is a defender of the poor and the downcast.Far from the truth! Africans are doomed with a strong France left to roam about freely.This is a country that should be in fetters! The only place in the world they can excercise their military might is in Africa.

Even if America suddenly became pro-Iranian overnight,you will see France suddenly becoming anti-Iranian overnight.If the US and Britain suddenly become anti-Israel,you will find France rushing in to fill the gap of supporting Israel.

This independent stance is a ploy by this OLD DEVIL of a country to foster and impose its culture on the rest of the world.This is why they are so hypocritically pro anything that is anti-America and Britain.We in French-speaking Africa with an open world view can lecture westerners in this area.We in anglophone Cameroon can beter inform the world of this.
