Don't be an ass, Would you like me to list US defeats, do people make jokes about the US pulling out of Vietnam. Would you like me to joke about the Marines and the Tet Offensive when in 1968 17,000 US soldiers died.
Seriously Id expect more from such a person as yourself.

actually that was a widely spread internet joke from when in 2001 the french refused to help in Iraq. the photo still exists, thou the process to get the results no longer works.
and i didn't list any defeats. remember the french lost first in Vietnam and were driven from the country.

At any rate...
I very much appreciate GPs efforts here and elsewhere internationally and am really curious about how this situation evolves. Will be keeping an eye on it and chiming inwith any new developments...
