He doesn't have to worry - no Muslim radical is ever going to blow anything up in France.

1) France as a huge problem with Islamic radicalism.
2) France has some of the most stringent anti-terror laws around. In some cases even more so than in the US.
3) They are very worried about it, but don't consider invading Iraq a method to quell the problem.

- granted they had an economic stake in Iraq, I have doubt as to the relative importance it held for the French economy. I agree that France is no better than the US, but I also think that tossing their opinion by the wayside is irresponsible.

Where did i indicate that Chirac was "my friend"? I simply agreed with him on this. What were i supposed to say, no i dont agree with his stance on the iraq war, cause his stance on other things sucks?

The quotes that I posted were from the Congressman leading one of the committees that's investigating BNP. He shares my opinion. You had best tell your father to come up with better answers than "there's no connection."

BNP was the escrow company for the Oil-For-Food program. There are serious questions as to whether they legitimately performed that role, or whether they were signing off on transfers of funds without evidence that the proper goods had changed hands.
