People only make fun of the french for their surrender in WWII.

What they dont realize, is the French had a lost generation of men at the time. They fought their balls off in WWI, and lost pretty much every fricking male in that entire generation. Americans have no idea what that would be like. There were hardly any males available by WWII, and the country in general had lost their appetite for war.

Without the French D Day would of never happen

It wasn't American nor British soldiers fighting the Nazis for 3 years after corrupted French politicians took over the government not to surrender to the Germans but to place themselves in power over France

No. People make fun of the French because of their general arrogance, even though it's universally known that they'll surrender or retreat at the drop of a hat (check out what the WW2 American Generals thought of them).
And speaking about "losing their appetite for war", the Germans didn't seem to have a problem with it!
