I agree. I just thought the image was provocative. I can't draw very well so I wrote it. France was actually one of the more aggressive advocates for nuclear weapons in the event of world war 3 during the Cold War. So in my head I see a French soldier with a cigarette in his mouth. He's staring dead eyed into the East and his hand is resting on a safety cover over a red button.

I think the existence of the French "warning shot" nuke backs your impression up
