They prefer to keep them in top condition through realistic training and on ready standby for worldwide deployment, just like what we do with the XVIII Airborn Corps.

I would not think that Chirac valued their lives like he would "real" Frenchmen. What will be fun now is for Israel to say they won't pull their troops out until "until the mission, the terms of engagement, and the proposed composition of the force have been clarified.
