If we do respond, let's go with scooter's response. Short, snarky, funny, and to the point..... Or, we could copy/paste the full text version of War and Peace.  Short and sweet, indeed. 
Haha, throw the book at them. Maybe it will make their inbox explode.

I don't think there's any point to any of this at this point.

I'm personally grateful to you for continuing to move the deck chairs around for us. The only "point" to sending an annoying long diplo message to CivFr is for ironic fun. They're idiots for sending an army around the world to attack us when we're clearly not going to win. It helps them approximately not at all, it helps teams that are better positioned than them to win, so I must conclude that they're just trolling, or trying to secure what, second? third? place. That's garbage to me. So, even though they may not get the joke, sending a super long email to the team that couldn't be bothered the entire game to even reply to legitimate diplomacy when it would be beneficial to them, it's just an attempt to stick them in the eye. I don't care if they get it or not, but they'd at least have to wonder for a second what the point of it was. Regardless, it's funny to me. Maybe I should open a voting thread for this? 
I support copy-pasting war and peace at them for ironic effect. Don't title it as such, just paste it in the reply, and add "Sincerely, RB" at the bottom. I would also support a huge flowery sincere message, but I doubt anybody cares enough to do that.
I already posted my suggestion and I think it's as good as any of these. What's the point in being reasonable? We're being eliminated. Who cares anymore about diplomatic fallout? Are we too grown up and serious to troll someone? (Not from what I've seen in the rant thread the whole game and here recently since we went off the rails). If we don't want to send insulting messages, whatever, but I see no reason whatsoever to be reasonable with anyone we're at war with. We should be poisoning their towns or something stupid like that, as pointless as that is, because we've nothing better to do while we stave off death.
Anyway, death to CFC, CivFr can get stuffed. Played: Pitboss 18 - Kublai Khan of Germany Somalia | Pitboss 11 - De Gaulle of Byzantium | Pitboss 8 - Churchill of Portugal | PB7 - Mao of Native America | PBEM29 Greens - Mao of Babylon |
