France: No To “War On Terror”

Now that’s a shock. In his nuanced style, which is foreign to American-educated ears, Prime Minister Dominique de Villepin (who is a man), says

Let us not forget that these crises play into the hands of all extremists,” the prime minister said in a debate on the Middle East. “We can see this with terrorism, whether it tries to strike inside or outside our frontiers,” he added.
“Against terrorism, what’s needed is not a war. It is, as France has done for many years, a determined fight based on vigilance at all times and effective cooperation with our partners.
“But we will only end this curse if we also fight against injustice, violence and these crises,” he said.

Make determined fights, not war.
Not much of a chant potential there.
