From the AP, 1 hour 29 minutes ago:
Chirac said he understood why Bush has been comparing the Iraq war to the liberation of Europe in World War II, given this weekend's celebrations. But Chirac said "it is very difficult to compare historical situations that differ because history is not repetitive." If Chirac actually meant that, he has no reason to cite lack of WMD when criticizing the war. Taking his statement to its logical end, the Iraq War was wrong because Saddam was not actively harming an opposing country. Even though Saddam gassed his people and invaded Kuwait, and was attempting to acquire weapons, he wasn't doing anything in the present, making it irrelevant.
Next time someone invades France, let 'em keep it. |
