Default Re: [OT] Nation bashing

UE, no offense intended, but were you born yesterday? The French and Americans have had a love/hate relationship going back hundreds of years. And it's certainly not an American condition only. The French take American bashing to an art form. Do you not notice it because you live there?

And to answer your other question, the key point is the article you are quoting is from the opinion section. Surely French newspapers have opinion and editorial sections as well? The fact that it's in the WSJ is no more relevant than the underwear advertisment on page 26. It's the opinion of the writer.
