I've heard stories about French complaining that American tourists
act like the French still owe us for coming to thier rescue.
I've head stories about French critcizing anyone who uses thier
forks concave side up.
But I look at what France actually does, and I see they know there
is a reason thier government made certain cemetaries legally US
soil.
Except for three attacks, killing a total of a few thousand
people, Americans haven't had a war on out own soil since the
1880s. Most of us don't know what it's all about.
And as long as we can fight our wars on somebody else's soil, I'm
willing to be selfish enough not to complain.
