No Guts No Glory!! ?

According to news reports, the agreement between the United States and France is falling apart over a cease-fire in the Middle East. It seems France does not want to lead the Multi National Force in to the South of Lebanon. The French are know saying if reports are true, that Israel should leave at once and that the army of Lebanon should move in to the South and thus they are not needed. President Bush has stated from his ranch that this is a line in the sand, there has to be a European Force in the South, as this will protect Israel but also allow Lebanon to have control in the South.

It has to be asked what are the French playing at if the above is true, does seem to raise the old question, no guts no glory, lets hope there is an agreement and the above story is false otherwise another self defeat for France.
