Yes. After WWII, the nations who defeated the Axis powers were given seats: The US, France, England, Russia, China. However, France really didn't do much "defeating," hence my original question is valid.

Why did you say "for god knows what reason". Was that an attempt at wit?

As I stated in my reply, France didn't really contribute to the defeat of the Nazis. They pretty much just rolled over and died until the UK and US liberated them.

I don't know what you're arguing with me for. I've already heard this ten thousand times and I don't care if somebody hates france because they were "pussies" in world war 2. All I'm objecting to is the fact that you say "god knows what reason" when there is a plainly obvious reason, and it is a very stupid reason, indeed.

I don't hate France because they were pussies in WWII. I hate them for a ton of other reasons.

My point was I don't understand why they were put on the permanent Security Council when they didn't really defeat the Nazis any more than, say, Poland.


It's always "more time" with them, no?

Haha. That paper says "light rail failing". Don't even get me started with that.

This is classic. So you're just saying it was a gross mismanagement of funds?


Who loses those dollars? Who goes in debt? Who profits?
