How is that relevant? Are you implying that being a US military contractor should make you immune to the laws of other countries that you operate in?

The onus is on the contractor to make sure any classified information is kept securely. If by raiding an office in France a bunch of US military secrets are found, it would suggest the company is not fit to have those kind of contracts.

I know it's hard to grasp for you. But in France, french laws and jurisdiction applies, not those of the United States

Even if it is, being affiliated with the US military doesn't make you immune to local laws.
