I wanted to link directly to the article in the Financial Times, but it is apparently only available to subscribers now. Instead, read the post at Blogs for Bush. To make a long story short, France and Germany are saying that there is no way they'll be helping us, regardless of who is President in January.
This is hardly surprising news for those of us on the right side of the political spectrum. First, these two nations plus Russia do not have enough of a standing military to hold off a Swiss invasion force, let alone assist in a modern war effort. Second, France and Germany are straining under the wieght of their nanny states, and they do not have the funds for active military endeavors. Third, France and Russia were up to their elbows in the oil for food scandal, and have been dead set against any thought of upsetting the apple cart. Too bad for them people are starting look close, only to see the apples were lemons.
You will not see this story in the MSM. It would further crack the Kerry story, which is already about as winding as a hedgerow maze. If anyone would like to read the text of the article, let me know. I have the text saved on another computer.
