Ok why aren't the French helping us in the War in Iraq? We saved there whole country in WorldWar 2. They helped us in the Revolutionary War so we were equal. It seems as if they are never going to help us ever again cause they know that we will help any country in need. I think they think they don't need to help us out cause we will always ending up helping them out.
Tell me your thoughts.

How is the war useless? If there are men dieing it's obviously not just a blow off. I mean it may be for a dumb purpose, but instead of protesting and letting more men die help them out!

Maybe they don't want to, there is no reason why they should. Just because Bush and other leaders thought it was the right thing to do dosn't mean the French have to think the same.

Perhaps the French would rather not be a part of this war.
And the USA only joined the war when they realised Germany had plans for them. :ermm:

The US was mobilized and shipping mass amounts of weapons and supplies to the Euroipean Allies years prior to entering the war. :ermm:

America will help out any country in a massive war. We didn't just rescue France for fun we did it cause it was our duty. Now We saved there whole country. They won't even send 1000 soldiers to help us pathetic, they aren't in a depression or anything they are pitiful. I hate France.

No, you're right about America not actually declaring war until the telegram, but we had been semi-helping the allies for years.

History 70+ years ago doesn't influence decisions as much as you think. That's why a peaceful France isn't fighting.

If America will help out any country in a war, why didn't they help Germany instead of France?

Why should they help out with a war they don't agree on? They're not in dept to the USA for what happened in WW2.

Meh, i think We're better off without the french anyways. After all, they'd need to have a flag on their back to be noticed as they're running away from battle anyways.

Just because America was able to Liberate France after D-day doesn't mean that france has to help America with the War in Iraq. Why should they, there is no reason for them to be fighting in this war. They do not owe favours to America, they only freed the country from German rule because they saw it as a good tactic to defeat the facists.

I actually agree with you, I like how you think mate!

Anyway The reason we helped out France other than Germany was because Germany was considered the 'Bad Guy.' He was slaughtering Jews and taking over Europe. Does that answer your question? I do not understand why so many countries hate America since we probably saved their ass in a war.
