Chirac : still mad


Chirac urges fairer world order


Speaking in London, Mr Chirac said a world based on "the logic of power" would lead to conflict.

He said the West could not impose its values on the world and confuse democratisation and Westernisation.


As opposed to imposing France's image on the world? Or giving a strategically and militarily weak country undue world influence?

Funny. Fair seems to be defined as that which maximizes French power. Nietzsche would have something to say here about the weak attempting to subdue the strong through appeals to metaphysically limiting beliefs.
