Fri, 25 Jun 2010 17:34:26 +0000 http://www.breitbart.com/article.php?id=D9GGDPTG1&show_article=1#IDComment82204060 http://www.breitbart.com/article.php?id=D9GGDPTG1&show_article=1#IDComment81962137 took longer than two weeks, and despite knowing they would lose, they fought until germany had occupied 75% of the country. instead of letting them burn Paris, Lyons, Marseilles, etc, they capitulated and vichy france was formed. and you sound like an ignorant moron that doesn't know anything about history and finds it all too comforting to assume no other country made any sort of sacrifice in world war 2 but america. you're right, i don't have a sense of humor when it comes to making fun of war dead. i just don't seem to find dead soldiers very humorous.C'est la vie.
