SOMETHING'S STINKY IN FRANCE, AND IT'S NOT JUST THE CHEESE.

What’s this? French anti-aircraft missiles were found in Iraq by Polish troops. Missiles manufactured in 2003. Could this be proof of the long suspected Franco-Iraqi connection? The French deny it, of course. But the seem to be using a Clintonian denial:

“It is not credible to say that the Roland missiles found a few days ago were produced in 2003 and delivered just before the Anglo-American intervention," the spokeswoman said. "Let's be absolutely clear about this: no military exports to Iraq were licensed after July 1990."

Sure, none were licensed, but did they occur none-the-less? The more likely scenario is they were winked at by Chirac & Friends, but never officially licensed. Expect future denials to go like this:

“We did not have military sales with that man, Mr. Hussein”
