Every fucking French-basher in this country ought to apologize right now:
French humanitarian aid officials met on Thursday to examine ways of providing support for victims of Hurricane Katrina in the United States, a French Foreign Ministry spokesman said. France is considering ways of mobilizing relief teams from the French Antilles in the Caribbean, ministry spokesman Denis Simonneau said at a news conference.
"France expresses its readiness to bring this aid based on the needs American authorities express," he said. French authorities were following Katrina's aftermath "with particular attention," he added.
We've been hurling abuse at the French because they refused to go along with George Bush's lies, and here they are, ready to help when we need them. How many "Freedom Fries" jingoistic American idiots would be willing to help THEM?
Germany's Gerhard Schroder has taken his share of abuse from American idiots too, and he too is willing to send help:
German Chancellor Gerhard Schroeder said on Thursday Germany was ready to help the United States with the havoc caused by Hurricane Katrina, offering water treatment facilities and mobile shelters.
"The terrible pictures are gradually showing us the extent of the devastation caused by the hurricane," Schroeder said at a book presentation in Berlin.
He said he had directed government ministries to investigate what help Germany could offer to the United States if requested.
"The citizens of the United States should know that in such a situation, Germany is firmly at their side and will do everything it can to organize whatever help we can provide as far as it is desired," he said.
"I'm thinking here of water treatment plants or mobile accommodation, the kinds of things that are needed in such a devastating situation."
"Old Europe", as Rummy has called them, has a lot more class than Americans have.
