The EU has said that Iraq has one last chance to disarm and comply withUN resolutions.
Again.
All you youngstersmay have a tough time remembering the days of vinyl record albums and a thing called a skip, where the record repeats the same notes over and over again, never going anywhere. Apparently, the EU is still living in those days.
It reminds me of Libya and the "Line of Death," which kept moving every time somebody crossed it. Khaddafi made a laughingstock out of himself with his grandiose pronouncements followed up by his instant retractions.
"But this time we really mean it," says the EU.
Yep, SoDamn Insane is surely quivering in terror right now. "The EU means it! I must mend the error of my ways immediately, or face a verbal tongue lashing by Chirac. Oh the shame!"
ANd did you hear what Chirac said to the eastern European nations who backed the US?
"It is not really responsible behavior, it is not well brought-up behavior. They missed a good opportunity to keep quiet," he told reporters.
Them's fightin' words there partner. It'd be pretty damn embarrassing for France if Lithuania came over there and kicked your asses. Of course, you are French; you're probably used to military humiliation by now....
