Betrayal treason and duplicity
So how do you reconcile your Gaulic outrage with the Vichy pact with the Germans, the blockade of armaments paid for and yet to be delivered to Israel when they were still surrounded by hostile Arab nations? How do you reconcile the savage wars the French fought against Vietnam and Algeria? How do you still revere a dictator who laid waste to large sections of Europe and Russia? If I were a Frenchman I wouldn't be looking back into history to find examples of other countries betrayal treason and duplicity.
