"Pointed out cases where the US counldn't force NATO to do its bidding"? Please point those out, as I must have missed those non-existent "proofs".
3000 troops is only a trivial force to YOU. Could they contribute more. Probably. But then, it would seem the French have some foresight and fiscal responsibility that we lack. Additonally, they were not attacked on 9/11, and they have no interest in the gas pipeline in Afghanistan, either, so I think their contribution is quite generous under the circumstances.
"National Security" is about a helluva lot more than boots on the ground (and please keep in mind that you are talking to a Gulf War I vet), and since you fail to take that into account, I stand completely by my original assertion that you are ill-informed.
You are a France-basher, plain and simple. That is my point. Disprove that one, asshole.
