Isn't it sad that the French have done more for Libya than the USA, is Obama answering the 3am phone or not?
France
is sending "massive" medical aid to Libyan opposition in the liberated
city Benghazi. The humanitarian effort comes amid criticism of the
French government's dealings with authoritarian regimes. The French
government has announced that it will send two planeloads of medical aid
to support Libyan opposition territories. The planes, which are due to
leave on Monday, will carry doctors, nurses, medical equipment and
medicine to the liberated city of Benghazi. "This will be the start of a
massive humanitarian aid operation to the populations of liberated
areas," French Prime Minister, Francois Fillon said on Monday.

Obama encouraged the uprising in Egypt because it furthered the Muslim Brotherhood.

Screw Libya. The United States has its own problems. It's like you
actually care about the Libyans; you just want an excuse to criticize
the current administration.

We hate the French, the world hates the French.

Not
particulary, all Western powers have failed to anticipate what's
happening in the Arab world and are still wondering what they should do.
France is only acting so it can protect its interests. The current
crisis could push hundred of thousands of North-African people to
immigrate in Europe, France has a colonial past in Africa and always
watches closely what happens and above all there is the problem of oil.
Countries act almost only for their interests, humanitarian actions
aren't priorities and often hide an agenda.
By the way, the US have positioned some of their forces near Libya and
the American government has warned Gaddafi that he should step down. The
US are also negociating with the UN and NATO to block the Lybian aerial
space, so implying Obama is being passive doesn't make sense.
3Li7E: "We hate the French, the world hates the French"
The world doesn't hate the French, France is actually one of the most
liked and admired countries in the world, only English-speaking people,
particulary the British and some ignorant Americans, have a problem with
France.

Libya is in France's back yard. They're
neighbors and major trading partners. We did the same for Haiti. We
can't be everything to all people anymore.
