@lusterko At least one nation learned something from WWII: that ”not wanting to die for Danzig” can promptly lead to dying for Paris.

They don't know what war is, probably.

The bodies, which are part of France’s Defense Ministry, asked the question: “If the protection of France required the country to engage in the war in Ukraine, would you be ready to defend your country?”

Of the respondents, 51% said yes, including 17% absolutely agreeing and 34% answering “maybe yes.”
