Everyone....including the Somali pirates....underestimate the French....and end up paying for it later....

"underestimate the french"?!?  True, they are even more worthless than most think.

Do you know why Paris has tree-lined streets?





































So invading armies can march in the shade.

Remember, guys, if it weren't for Lafayette , Rochambeau and de Grasse we might be singing God Save the Queen instead of The Star Spangled Banner.

I'll admit that my first reaction was similar to FightingQuaker's. 

TomBogan's right - it's their damned politicians and political officers who wear the brown pants.

The French chasing and killing, oooppps capturing pirates? Well, that's good enough for me, where's the air support finding the "mother ships"? 300+ miles out in a little skiff? Thinking some torpedo's for the mother ships....

Oh, wait,... this is the French.... .

Frankly, I like Sarkozy, more than BHO.

And speaking of Somalia, I never realized how much their flag resembles the 'Bonnie Blue'.......
