    France had worked out a deal with Libya. Why should I care if they were embarrassed the Americans were able to work a larger settlement with Tripoli than they were?

      With your logic it was actually the US which screwed up the deal and then tried to blame it, unsuccesfully, on France. That or the US didn't have enough diplomatic wisdom to forsee it. In both cases, with your logic and arguments, the US screwed up.

        The US still walked away with more...interesting way to "screw up".

          Is everything the US vs France? This shtick is getting old, fast.

          France got what it wanted. The UK got what it wanted. The US got what it wanted, presumably. Libya got what it wanted. Can't everyone win, just once?

          Well, not everyone. There are still the victims and their families.

              On the contrary, America IS the center of the world. The French (God bless their poor souls) proved it. Thye couldn't cut a decent deal on their own, so they waited until we did, and they free loaded. What more to say?

                Please remind me, why were the sanctions imposed in the first place?

                  Libyan support of terrorism?

                    Dunno, I think they've been behaving themselves.
