The french never gave up on empire. They have been kicked out of Africa by China. Sarkozy is an ultra nationalist he has told europe he wants europe to work together so that france can plough a bizarre attempt at empire by themselves.

[TryNotToBreakMyHeart]

on my point o view, i think that its just to make a strong relation between UAE & French

[cuthebs]

More millitary build-up in Jerusalem's vacinity... Our time here is shortened brothers and sisters. Can we not yet see what is happening? It seems the line between government and citizen is blurring... Again.

[videosouthafrica]

they should have set up a base in the gulf of mexico ... nicer spring break girls down there

[Khalid88Nasser]

i think its a gd step for French & UAE relations and at the end there just 500 french personal =) and most of them are naval personal,,but the UAE Army is strong enough and is very advanced 2 be honest they dnt need it but i think its jst 2 boost relations =)

[waszzam23]

lo the fcking fench are i the uae wow the uae is fcking stupid goes o show u that some arab countries are just plain sell outs

[Viatriste]

@waszzam23 The US should have supported Italy is acquiring legitimate Italian territory of Southern France and Corsica. after WW 1. America knows who its friends are, and France has never been one them. The Froggies actually think they are a super power.

[xXkillerXx619]

@waszzam23 fuck u ur country is stupid

[boooooom666]

why do we need a french base in UAE ? ???!?!??! our army is strong enough

[SaLTLiFe4TL]

oh yea forgot to say love your country i live in orlando florida and we have tourist from all over the world to, i hope to visit your country well the city of Abu Dubai good luck and i wish luck to your economy

[BinLadenMustDie368]

Dubai is better... XD

jk they're both the shit... though Abu Dhabi is growing at a more steady pace than Dubai...

The UAE is over all one of the best countries in the gulf to visit...

[SaLTLiFe4TL]

Yea but im not rich and when i see Maybachs and Bentleys and Range rovers im just gonna get pissed. I see you live in Alabama, thats a big change hahaha i mean shit i cant picture there faces when you tell them you lived in Dubai. You all have some dam good football teams, but not as good as UF Gators lol

[BinLadenMustDie368]

yeah its freaking hilarious!....

then they mostly ask me stupid questions though...

like "do u ride a camel to school?"

lol well don't worry this is one Alabamian thats not obsessed with sports due to me living in the Middle East for so long...

but i have to agree the Gators are pretty good

[SaLTLiFe4TL]

u may all think im so ignorrant america asshole but this is a strong step for political and military action both for the French and UAE Govt. Plus the UAE uses a majority of French and US military equipment. it just ads stability for the region

[ArabJinn]

I disagree with that. We don't accept any forgion forces in the Arab gulf.

We can protect our countries from any enemy.

[xXkillerXx619]

@jigglyfidda125 fuck u

[Ryan39551987]

Dubai will bubble eventually. There sitting ducks for failure. To much to fast!

[ALFalasiUAE]

you are not used to this , our achievements were achieved in a very very short period and thats what makes them amazing, we don't wait for chance we do all what we can. and we are very rational. we don't spend 3 years debating building a bridge or a road.

[gopconservative78]

The French military couldn't beat a 5th grader that is blind. This is just another place for the French to surrender to

[malachy1847]

what is sad is the complicity of a nation that rewrites itsown history! to for its own needs,"collective amnesia"of those who sold out their next door neighours[because they were jews socialists freethinkers gypsies homosexual communists darkskinned] come on! the majority of the vichy french troops in syria -lebanon during ww11 fought against allied forces!! After their defeat they were offered a choice to sign up with the allied or return to vichy france 90% returned!! to a heroes wellcome

[malachy1847]

Fraternal greatings my funny Gallic brother,If it was not for allied intervention you would all be speaking german my countrymen including members of my famly fought to keep you from Hitlers grasp. Go look at the graves and be greatful at least no irishmen got suntans on their forearms from holding them aloft, are the French Army provided their troops with sunscreen! they do have the fastest main battle tank"leclerc"with one forward and six reverse gears!!!

i

f it wasnot for the

[zaphod2036]

can't you renew the classic "we bailed you etc"... What did the Irish did under WWII ? Former Old IRA commander and founder of the Fine Gael Party, General Eoin O'Duffy, became a leader of the fascist Blueshirt organisation. He was active in creating links between the IRA and German Nazi politicians. The pro-Nazi sympathies and anti-semitism of some Irish politicians during WW2 were once airbrushed from history, but Ireland is now beginning to acknowledge them.. You're pathetic

[malachy1847]

It must have been a nice time in "vichy france" during the war! things went on just normal well thats the french way!go and reread your History of the irish regiments in the british army,they were with the expeditionary force so "full the gunnalls" of young men from ireland many had to enlist in outher regiments as there was not enough room for them with their own at the start of WW11..more than 50,000 took the boat to britian to fight for your freedom during same go look at the headstones

[malachy1847]

now now my gallic brother lets not be bitchy Reread irish history and you shall see that owen oduffy formed,"The Army comrades association"to stop republications[anti treaty] breaking up "fine gael" meetings this small right wing neofacist group imploded when they went off to spain to fight on francos side!they were a no force in to be reckoned with, meanwhile irish men joined the international brigade these were republicans, workers,teachers, trade unionists, and and yes a few communists,

[zaphod2036]

Malachy. You're right. That's why the fucking Irish (a country that is bankrupt and would eat potatoes if not for the EU money) have backed us by sending half of their tiny army to Chad. What do you know about the world, you little green commie ?

[malachy1847]

,You do not have to be such a clown every day of your life if it was not for the allied powers you wou would now be speaking german my country men including members of my family fought to you from Hitlers grip look at the graves and be greatfull In respect of armies the French have the main fastest Battle Bank in the world "the "LECLERC" one forward gear and six reverse gears!!! at least during no irish got suntans on the front of their arms from holding them up!!! do they issue sunscreen

[malachy1847]

Just thinking of "great military operations" that the French took part in the recient past how about "The sinking of "The Rainbow Warrior " in Auckland Harbour very brave!!!

[zodeloni]

stupid fucking arabs are traitors fuck uae for doing this filthy cowards

[zaphod2036]

We transfer tactical nuclear strike capacity to the ME (we already have strategical strike capacity with the subs) through cruise missiles (SCALP-NAVAL). That will cool down some and relieve part of the US burden to keep order in the region. Too bad that the UK can't follow...

[malachy1847]

The french government only interested in making a quick buck or two ,selling arms and dodgy services to any semi feudal dictator or despot who they can get into bed with!!! they have the political morals of a "jackrabbit"!!!

[hairybeast101]

france does not need any more bases.

[malachy1847]

Frances only interests is are selling arms, and nuclear power plants to already oil rich Arab countries!!! mad, mad, mad, old colonial powers dont fade away they reinvent themselves as neo- imperial states its all about the oil money

[lsJuan]

Mauvaise route.. Wrong way..

[charlessmyth]

This will place France in a position to assist in thwarting the Iranian existential threat to states in the immediate region, the UAE included, and the former Central Asian Republics, by way of a nuclear weapons capability with which to better secure its radiacal-Islamic proxies from counterattack, such as already operate in the neighbourhood of Israel.
