"Cheese-eating surrender monkeys" is a satirical and insulting phrase, referring to the French, which gained notoriety in the United States, particularly in the run-up to the war in Iraq.

The phrase was first popularized in the Simpsons episode "'Round Springfield" (first aired on April 30, 1995). Groundskeeper Willie, the school janitor, an unkempt immigrant from Scotland, is teaching French due to budget cuts, dressed in a striped jumper and a beret. He greets them with "Bonjourrrrr, yah cheese-eatin' surrender monkeys!"

The 'surrender' element of the phrase refers to the perceived proclivity of the French to surrender in military confrontations. The implicit characterization of the French as cowards, and the description of the Battle of France as a surrender is—as promulgators of the phrase likely intend—regarded by many as highly offensive.

The character of Groundskeeper Willie is known for his grumpiness and animosity, and the format of the phrase in question is in keeping with his characteristic style of insult (as when, in the episode entitled "Kamp Krusty", he calls Principal Skinner a "silk-wearing buttercup"). His attempt to speak French with a heavy Scottish accent does provide much of the comedy in the scene. According to the DVD commentary for the episode, the line was "most likely" written by Ken Keeler.

In the European French language version of that Simpsons episode, Willie's line was dubbed as singes mangeurs de fromage (cheese-eating monkeys) without any mention of "surrender". The line does not translate easily due to the adjectival manner in which "surrender" is used in the English-language version.
The line was first picked up and used predominantly by Republican American politicians and publications. They were led, according to the British national newspaper The Guardian, by Jonah Goldberg, a popular columnist for the US bi-weekly National Review and editor of their website National Review Online.[1] Goldberg's online-only column, the G-File, is written in a more casual, personal manner and in the late 1990s often contained Simpsons (and other pop-cultural) references. Goldberg's repeated aggressive use of the phrase "cheese-eating surrender monkeys" led to its more widespread use amongst his readers. Oddly enough, Goldberg had stopped using it by the time the phrase was gaining mainstream popularity post-9/11.

France opposed many U.S. positions and actions, in particular, alongside most of the world, the 2003 invasion of Iraq. Some argue the phrase's success reflects deep antipathy in the U.S. towards countries such as France who oppose the U.S. in international forums. The phrase, and similar opprobrious comparisons, have been used more frequently by some U.S. media outlets, such as the New York Post and commentator John Gibson of the FOX News Channel (both owned by Rupert Murdoch's News Corporation, which also owns The Simpsons), and commentator Mark Hyman of the Sinclair Broadcasting Group.

The New York Post resurrected the phrase "Surrender Monkeys" as the headline for its December 7, 2006 front page, referring to the Iraq Study Group and its recommendation that U.S. combat brigades be withdrawn from Iraq by early 2008.[2]
