World Views: Can France be trusted as a nuclear power?

By Tony Blankley

Paul Johnson, the formerly left wing but for the past generation renowned and brilliant British conservative journalist and historian, has put forward a particularly naughty proposal. Drawing on a thousand years of British distrust of the French, in this week’s Forbes.com Mr Johnson innocently poses the question: “whether France can be trusted as a nuclear power. The French have certainly sold nuclear technology to rogue states in the past, Iraq among them. In view of France’s attempts to sabotage America’s vigorous campaign to halt the spread of weapons of mass destruction, we need to be sure that France is not planning to cover the cost of its flagging nuclear weapons program by selling secrets to unruly states. Certainly Anglo-American surveillance of French activities in this murky area must be intensified.”

Written in the puckish style of Edwardian short story writer Saki, it is hard to tell whether Mr Johnson’s observation was intended as needling humour or serious policy. It is a measure of how much things have changed in the last few months, that I remain in doubt on that point. But in the context of the remainder of his article (which I recommend to you), it would seem that he is quite serious. And when one combines this, perhaps, whimsical suggestion with President Bush’s decidedly unwhimsical speech last Wednesday night, we just might get a glimpse of things to come in this world gone mad that we are obliged for a while longer to call home (as soon as NASA can organise a colony on Mars, sign me up).

In President Bush’s underrated and under-studied speech last Wednesday, he warned that: “we are opposing the greatest danger in the war on terror outlaw regimes arming with weapons of mass destruction the passing of Saddam Hussein’s regime will deprive terrorists networks of a wealthy patron And other regimes will be given a clear warning that support for terror will not be tolerated.” Given how serious and deliberate President Bush is on this supreme danger, that quoted passage must be read as putting Iran, Syria, Libya and North Korea on notice that what we are about to do to Saddam will be their fate, too, should they continue in defiance of civilised behaviour.

Mr Johnson would seem to be adding France to that watch list. It’s not as absurd as it sounds. Of course, France is not a terrorist state merely a sometimes-annoying one. If they have transferred nuclear technology to Iraq in the past, it was surely only for commercial purposes. But then, North Korea sells its weapons to all buyers including rogue regimes because that is all they have to sell to finance their country. North Korea, a largely Buddhist country before it became communist, has no particularly sentimental attachments to jihadist Muslim terrorists: its just business.

And France, a largely Christian country before it became atheist, has never had overly sentimental attachments to the Muslims either (of course, now that its Muslim population is growing so fast, France well may be developing political attachments to them). But French atomic sales to Iraq, I’m sure, were just business, also. Nonetheless, the logic of President Bush’s policy is cold and objective. The danger to the civilised world of weapons of mass destruction falling into terrorist hands is unconditional. Any nation that is an agency for such transfers is, objectively, a threat to the civilised world. If France were to again transfer atomic technology to a still Saddamized Iraq, or a still radicalised Iran, or any other conduit to terrorists, the civilised world would have to take notice and attempt to block such transfers. And in her current effort to block President Bush from his mission of protection, she has become a force for measureless danger to the world.

It would be a pity if France had to be removed from the list of civilised countries. She was, after all, the first Western civilised country to emerge after the fall of Rome and the long night of darkness that followed. For a half a millennium before the renaissance, France was the single light of civilisation in the Western world. In many ways, she remains an exemplar of educated, civilised deportment. It is a bafflement to me that now, in this greatest crises of western civilisation, France could have so lost her way as to be the prime agent of hope for Saddam and the system of terrorism he underpins. As a French general once observed: It’s worse than a crime, it’s a blunder. —The Washington Times

Current Events

Why Millions Say, Softly, God Bless America

Paul Johnson, 02.28.05, 12:00 AM ET

Democracy has many enemies, and the terrorist is only one of them. It also has many hypocritical and humbugging pseudosupporters, which is one of numerous lessons to be drawn from the situation in Iraq.

When America--having smashed Iraq's 40-year-old Baathist tyranny and captured its blood-soaked leader, Saddam Hussein--promised to hold democratic elections with all deliberate speed so that Iraqis could decide their own future, the hope and expectation was that democratic nations and peoples the world over would come and help. But that did not happen. With the notable exceptions of Australia, Poland and Britain (whose prime minister, Tony Blair, has taken huge political risks to back America 100%), most other democratic nations have looked the other way.

The worst example is Spain. On the eve of elections there, terrorists detonated bombs on trains in Madrid, panicking the nation. In a spasm of fear the Spanish--not normally lacking in courage--voted in a Socialist government. The new government took the coward's way out and withdrew its troops from Iraq.

In Ukraine voters took to the streets to reverse a crooked election. Thanks to the backing of the U.S., Ukrainians won their point, and their true, democratically elected president took office. But even though it has tasted the sweets of democracy itself, Ukraine is also withdrawing its troops from Iraq--a case of cowardice compounded by selfishness that bodes ill for the country's future.

Spain and Ukraine expect to enjoy democracy but will not lift a finger to help the Iraqis, who have never had such a luxury.

France and Germany have remained on the sidelines, greeting America's costly efforts to bring democracy to the Arab world with a mixture of vicious criticism, sneers and obstructive tactics. But then, neither nation has much of a democratic record.

The Germans have had democracy imposed on them twice by the victorious Allies, each time after a world war Germany started. German democracy is a superficial growth, and if the Socialists there continue to mismanage the economy and impoverish the people, who can say whether freedom in Germany will survive?

The French have had 12 written constitutions since 1789. None has given ordinary French people the feeling that they are really in charge of their affairs. If they have a real grievance they take to the streets and block the roads and ports, knowing from bitter experience that force is more likely to get results than arguments or votes.

Italy has had democracy of a sort since 1945, but it is so corrupt that Italians don't put much faith in it. They know that family and business connections--based on favors given and reciprocated--are the only way to obtain justice and their rights.

The European Union itself is the epitome of the Continent's pseudodemocracy. There power is distributed among masterful bureaucrats and permanent political elites. The resulting lack of freedom for individuals and businesses means that economic growth is almost nil and the future is bleak.

As for European intellectuals, who command so much power in the media, universities and opinion-forming circles, they have done everything they possibly could to abuse America's initiative in Iraq and to prevent the installation of freedom. Some make it clear that they would much prefer Iraq to be run by men like Saddam than by American-backed democrats. Of course, intellectuals pay lip service to free elections but in practice have a profound (if secret) hatred of democracy. They cannot believe that their votes should count for no more than the votes of "uneducated" people who run small businesses, work on farms and in factories and have never read Proust.

The intellectuals wanted the Iraqi elections to be defeated by terror. But now that the elections have actually taken place, they want the new government to fail. They want democracy to fail in Afghanistan as well so that they can smile smugly and say, "We told you so." For if democracy were to triumph everywhere, what role would there be for the intellectual critic? As Shakespeare put it, "Othello's occupation's gone."

Turning Point?

Despite all these false friends and hidden enemies, however, democracy is taking its first faltering steps in the Arab-Muslim world. It may well be that in history's long perspective, America's success in turning Afghanistan and Iraq away from tyranny, fear and murder toward the peaceful rule of the ballot will seem a historic turning point. Other successes may well follow, and the chariot of democracy will gather momentum.

Just as the appalling 20th century was the age of the totalitarian state, the Gulag and Auschwitz, so the 21st may come to be seen as the age of government "of the people, by the people, for the people." If so, the U.S., by its courage and persistence, will be able to take primary credit. It has certainly led from the front, and it has shown that it knows how to use its position as the world's sole superpower with judgment, honor and unselfishness.

I think Abraham Lincoln would be proud of what George W. Bush and the U.S. forces have done. After the freeing of the slaves, what more logical and benevolent step could there be than to free millions of Arabs from the slavery of terror? So I say, God Bless America. And I'm confident that countless millions throughout the world say so, too, even if they do not dare--yet--to say so aloud.

Y'a aussi le fait que Aznar a menti en disant que c'était l'ETA. Qui peut dire le résultat des élections sans ce mensonge? [:spamafote]

Dans une maternité, l'infirmière dit à une jeune mère :

- Votre bébé est un vrai petit ange, une fois couché il ne bouge plus.

La jeune mère répond :

- Tout le portrait de son père !

Une femme téléphone à son mari et lui dit :

- J'ai passé 2 semaines dans une clinique d'amaigrissement et j'ai fondu de moitié !

Il lui répond :

- Reste encore 2 semaines

Un homme entre dans une bibliothèque et demande à la préposée :

- Madame, pouvez-vous m'aider à chercher un livre ?

- Certainement Monsieur, lequel ?

- Le titre est " l'homme, le sexe fort ".

La préposée répond :

- Les livres de science-fiction sont au sous-sol, Monsieur.
