French - A degenerate culture ?

Hi All

Thank you to everyone who responded to chain letter protesting the
French planned resumption of nuclear tests in the Pacific.

A number of questions were raised that I would like to address.

- I did not post the Chain-letter, It was forwarded by someone I
had forwarded it to.

- I am not in touch with any protest groups in Tahiti or France.

- I do not have Email addresses of any officials in France.

- I agree that generally The Net shouldn't be used for Chain
Letters, But that this is a valid exception.

- It was suggested that French action in Bosnia shows that they are
"the good guys" - To me it looks like war mongering and weapons
testing.

- It was suggested that a group of U.S. anthropologists visit the
Pacific to see what effect the imminent tests are having on
Pacific culture, I would Suggest rather that a party of Pacific
people make an expedition to France, To see what can be done to
civilize that area.

- All French people have to make the choice to remove the
criminal government they have elected.

- All people in the civilized world (non-French) must realize that
by supporting the French in any way, They are also supporting
the destruction of the biosphere and life on Earth.

- If French Culture gives rise to this essentially nihilistic
behaviour, Then every effort must be made to remove all French
words, food, customs, etc from civilized culture.

- One is reminded of past criminal actions and lies by French
governments, therefore any assurance from the French must be
taken with more than a grain of salt.

- All the above arguments apply equally to Korea, Israel, Britain,
U.S.A, China etc if they choose to develop and/or set off nuclear
weapons.

Just my 2c (inc tax) worth
Chris
