De VS is weer eens volwassen bezig:

“I think France is going to pay some consequences, not just with us, but with other countries who view it that way,” Deputy Defence Secretary Paul Wolfowitz told the senate last week.

Pentagon adviser Richard Perle told the International Herald Tribune that the crisis in relations was not something that could be dealt with in the “normal diplomatic way” because anti-French feeling now ran very deep in US society.

He said he doubted there could ever be a constructive relationship between the two governments.
