Stupidity International

Well, all those people who thought Europe was so much more sophisticated by not re-naming American stuff with native language names can now all officially sit down and shut up:

A group of German university professors, angered by the U.S.-British war against Iraq (news - web sites), have launched a campaign to replace many popular English-language words used in Germany with French terms.

Why do I think the French won't return the favor?

And US citizens got no reason to get righteously indignant, because it was the US that started this weirdness.

Further proof that it's people who are stupid, not Americans, Brits, Germans, Japanese, etc.
