France objects to "Waterloo" coin?

[abaris]

May I just note that it's quite asinine to introduce god and Hitchens into this discussion. Even more so since it rather makes the case for Napoleon, who was less religious than the ones fighting him. Also the liberating Europe from a dictator is bullshit. These were absolute rulers, who were worried about their own hides, not liberators. And in the case of England, which was a bit more liberal than the others, it was about trade routes and global interests.
