What are the French doing?

[Vulpine]

Yeah, I'm glad they have.

[Luddite]

"Our" uranium is in the north of Niger.
"We" have interests on the algerian gaz...

Do I need to say more ?

This makes sense.  France is run on nuclear power after all...moreso than many other nations, so i guess uranium is a vital resource.

What are the 'interests on the Algerian Gaz'?

[barbarian]

The interest on buying it.

Watched them on the news last night.

For a French army they are not very well equipped - not a white flag in site .

BUT ......The News did say they were only assisting the Mali Army, so perhaps they don't need tham if they are not expecting to fight

I believe this is one of the rules of French warfare - When in doubt send an ally!!

By the way you left Dunkerque in 1940, you shouldn't brag that much on French people. 

(Just tired about hearing griefing about French surrendering, only coming from British and American people...)

Well said, that man! Funny how they always remember getting an empire, never that they couldn't keep it.

Only after France collapsed.

I don't recall France ever being part of our empire.

Briefly during the reign of Henry V and Henry VI!

Time out chaps !
This will just go round and around in circles.

If I remember correctly said Empire surrendered to some rebel rabble and Elite French ground and Naval Formations in Lexington, USA.

Now what is more humilating.  

I hope this thread can go btt. Sad it needs a GERMAN to tell you both suck armywise.... 

[FierceKitty]

Blessed are the peacemakers. But bad news for wargamers.

[barbarian]

When you read Wikipedia in various languages, this is quite shocking how the same event is presented by different countries.
Battle of Dunkirk and Bataille of Dunkerque doesn't quite present the same reading of the battle.

I first noticed the differences on the articles about the Battle of Fornovo. (Italian wars)
French says : French victory. Italian version says : uncertain results.

[FierceKitty]

Like so many of those cases, it is only a matter of ill-defined words. Lexicographers of the world, unite and put the philosophers out of business!

Ouch !!

You are right Barbarian, an awful lot of the French army left with us and fought on bravely from the UK.  And unlike our American allies at least the French army was on time for the start and not two years late!!! AGAIN
