CHIRAC SUPPORTS AHMADINEJAD

BBC:

French President Jacques Chirac has said referring Iran to the UN Security Council is not the best way to resolve a crisis over its nuclear programme.

"I don't believe in a solution without dialogue," Mr Chirac told Europe-1 radio, urging countries to remove the threat of sanctions against Iran. ... he said. "I think that Iran is a great nation and that we can find solutions through dialogue."

The US is leading calls for sanctions to be imposed on Iran if it refuses to suspend uranium enrichment.

I think that Chirac is deliberately sucking up to the mullahs in anticipation of his indictment on the day his term as president expires (and with it his immunity from criminal charges of corruption): he nneds to esacpe to a nation which won't send him back to the EU for trial: he will probably take up residence in Iran.Either that or it's just another example of French perfidy. Or both. In fact, France has long used it's veto on the UNSC to triangulate and win deals with nations which the USDA has tried to isolate. SIMPLY PUT: they're greedy corrupt scum.

LET'S BE REAL: Chirac is opposed to force and he's opposed to sanctions. So what, exactly does that leave, except harshly worded letters & speeches!? Pol's like Chirac aren't worth a drop of spit. WHY?! Because the effective result of Chirac's position is the empowerment of Ahmadinejad and the mullahs of Iran and their nuclear dreams.
