French Innovation

Ms.Alliott-Marie, the French Defense Ministress, has proclaimed a new French strategy for the Son of UNIFIL force the French are finally going to "man." According to that Wall St. Journal report, Ms. Minister said, ""I don't want to send men so that they can be humiliated on the ground." Which, since the death of Napoleon, has been the almost-unvaried situation of the French forces.

She also criticised those who are denigrating the French effort. Ma'am, we only aim to please.
