France had 11,000 troops on the ground? Shortly after 9/11, Germany
pledged 3,900 troops to the war on terror and they've been supporting
in Afghanistan and even had troops in Kuwait prior to the second Iraq
war. France has tens of thousands of Legionnaires patrolling France
for Islamic terrorists.
These countries aren't afraid to fight. It's specifically Iraq that
they weren't convinced was a threat.
