And Kouchner has never been a socialist, as far as I know. When he was invited to join socialist government, he represented 'civil society', i.e. he was part of ouverture from the left (his presence them did not make those governments be described as 'as close to a grand coalition as is possible'). In the long run, we're all dead. John Maynard Keynes
Check the article history... Bush is a symptom, not the disease.
he was one of the rare French politicians who spoke out in favour of military intervention in Iraq in 2003, saying he was against war but also against Saddam Hussein's regime.
Unlike the French version, en.Wikipedia had two contradicting paragraphs, one claiming outright support for military intervention, the other correctly quoting that thing about being neither for war nor for Saddam. I edited the former part. *Lunatic*, n. One whose delusions are out of fashion.
WMDs were never a big consideration for them, and (sadly) neither was the identity of the party pushing that war. So I would not dumpt him/them in the same bag as the armchair warriors - especially Kouchner who does have credibility as an activist against war. In the long run, we're all dead.
