At a nuclear submarine base in Brittany on Friday, Chirac announced the fruits of France's Atomic Energy Commission contract with HP in Galway. They've made "usable" tactical nuclear weapons, and first-strike policy to use them against non-nuclear states and nuclear states alike (though of course they wouldn't use them against the nuclear states).

Chirac has threatened a massive terrorist attack using nuclear weapons, against enemies who sponsor a terrorist attack on France, it's allies, or "strategic supplies" (read: oil).

As the Washington Post pointed out -- At the same time, he condemned "the temptation by certain countries to obtain nuclear capabilities in contravention of treaties." ( http://www.washingtonpost.com/wp-dyn/content/article/2006/01/19/AR2006011903311.html )

Treaties. I see.
