"If ye love wealth greater than liberty, the tranquility of servitude better than the animating contest for freedom, go home and leave us in peace. We seek not your council nor your arms. Crouch down and lick the hand that feeds you, and may posterity forget that ye were our countrymen." - Samuel Adams

Mr Chirac has made the call to help the "Global Fund to Fight AIDS, Tuberculosis and Malaria" in a speech at closing ceremonies at a major AIDS conference in Paris.
