Yes.
The Americans have a red light for pretty much any military operations outside their current few. I don't think I need to expand on that.
Knowing the Americans want to sit this one out, France or Germany or any other country should have been acting as soon as Gaddafi's violence started.
Not after a sit-down at the UN with America.
The reluctance to get involved suggests to me that they didn't want to go into Iraq for the same reasons these nations were slow to act on Libya. (not really sure what that reason is though, maybe they just don't want to fund the fight)
Am I off base on this?
