Sorry for the spam but I'd like to add another point (Would have edited this in too...).

America came to France's aid in the war, this is true. If this means they have an obligation to aid America in a similar situation then I'm sure they would have.

Except, America is not being attacked.

Nor is Great Britain.

So far as I know the French do not have any obligation to the Iraqi people (the exact cause Bush and Blair are saying they want this war for). So why do they have an obligation to help America pro-actively (re-actively?) attack Iraq?

Answer that one.
