Hezbollah kills two French soldiers in a terrorist attack and Macron is very angry. He's angry I tell you!!

He is demanding that Lebanon do something about it.

You would think the French could find their balls just one time, if for no other reason than to squash their reputation as spineless cowards who aren't willing to fight for anything.

Just once.

Great example of why we need to cut loose of NATO.

We've spent enough money and bled enough blood for these people over the last 100 years.

Some people are just meant to be ruled.

You've got to wonder what it's like to be Macron.

To know that the whole world thinks you are a massive beta, you get caught on camera being beaten by your wife, and then finally have an opportunity to show that you have a spine.

His decision? Prove everyone right.

You know why there's trees planted along the streets of Paris? So Germans can march in the shade.

France has the second biggest army in Europe, surpassed only by Poland. They can do something about it if they want to. They may be trying to pressure Lebanon to actually have a military pulse and do something about Hez. Speculation, though. Lebanon's military is pathetic.

Different French army. France hasn't been the same since WW1.

In keeping with illustrious French tradition, Macron surrenders to Hezbollah citing unsustainable combat losses, blames Israel.

This was true right up until the kickoff of WW2.

Western Europe is lost and not worth saving. As I have said many times, plan those trips and get over there before it's too late. We have a trip in June and last stop is Spain. On one hand, I am happy to see it because I've never been. On the other, not happy about spending a dollar in Spain right now.

The future of America and our alliances lie elsewhere than old world western Europe. I don't believe they can be saved at this point.

The French really only have a few deployable forward forces. They're logistics for forward deployment isn't great.

True, however did you know about the undeclared war between the U.S. and France?
Known as the Quasi-War 1798-1800.

Yes, but what have they done in the last 1/4 century. The only exception being the 0.00005% of the population involved in the French Underground during WWII.

France is officially not a NATO member. As to why, that would be a different discussion topic.

Inside their borders, the French are feckless, but outside their borders, apparently their counterterrorism teams are legit. Handcuffs off, all that political nonsense...

1.5 million deaths might do that to a country.

i think you all are missing the fact that the french have one of the better militaries in europe.

let that sink in for a minute as you ridicule them and then wonder what the hell we are doing in nato.

as bad as the French have been losing every war since 1815

you would think they could take advantage of racking up an easy victory against Hizbullah now that Israel did all the work.



Invasion of Russia 1812 massive defeat
Waterloo final defeat 1815
crushed by Prussia in 1871
mutinies by French Armies 1917
crushed by Nazis in 1940
crushed by Vietnamese 1954
lost at Suez 1956
Kicked out of North Africa 1960s

Reminds me of that joke, how many Frenchmen does it take to defend France?



Nobody knows; it's never been attempted.

Arguably the best. At least the one with most experience. So, yes, that is sad.

Its a competent military, with poor leadership. See America under Biden.

France hasn't been the same since about 1870. The Krauts were blitzing the French on horseback decades before tanks were ever invented.
