Blue Crab Boulevard: “The people who have refused to face up to the Iranian threat are making war more likely, not less. France appears to have realized that, even at this late date.”
The Impudent Observer: “The forces of war are gaining strength.”
The Bench: “The French don’t usually say stuff like this unless they really, really mean it. And they’re saying it. Loudly.”

Wilkes-Barre Scranton Watcher: “It took them a while, didn’t it? Interestingly enough Germany and France seem to now be swinging to the right while we are . . . ?”
