That statue was built back when France had a backbone. They might have still lost most of their wars back in those times, but at least they had the spine to fight them. It was great that they gave us the statue, but it doesn't excuse their behavior today.
And for anyone who believes the media's bullshit about how 'bad' the Iraq situation is, I need only remind you that we've lost more troops in single days in Vietnam or World War II than we have in six months in Iraq. One needs only look back at the Civil War to see some battles where tens of thousands of troops were killed in HOURS. In comparison, we're doing incredibly well in Iraq.
