Possible collapse of the French government??? If recent reports out of Britain's Telegraph turn out to be true it does not appear to me that the French government could possibly survive. Maybe the information gleaned from the Iraqi documents will remain opaque enough that the blame could be left with the French embassy in Baghdad that had "gone native" as it were. But otherwise, surely even the French could not tolerate such behavior from their government. At the very least, are they not pragmatic enough to understand that it would so severely damage the French government's ability to act credibly in the world scene (stop snickering Travis) that it just makes no sense to stick with this horse.

Unfortunately, it is my understanding that Chirac is the "PRO-AMERICAN" wing in French politics!!!!! Somebody please tell me I am wrong about that.
