I do believe he is refering to the french, you know, those characters who threw down their rifles in world war 2 and said "Hiel Hitler" when the germans came marching into paris.
Oh Jesus here we go, we out west aren't allowed to talk about that for fear of rileing up our friends out east. It's kind of like you guys down south have your own touchy subjects, eq. the KKK or bad mouthing Opra. Opps maybe that wasn't such a good example, sorry in advance. :-#
