French cowardly "justice"

French justice has issued an arrest warrant for Bashar al-Assad. The warrant was announced by the country’s Foreign Minister, Jean-Noel Barraud.

"The regime's crimes must not go unpunished. France has been and will continue to be mobilized to ensure justice for the Syrians," Barraud said.

What are you talking about? For the past 15 years, France didn't really notice Syria, did it? Or were there any ambiguities, making it unclear? Why issue a warrant now? You should have done it earlier, when Assad was in power, if you're so principled.

If you do business with Gaddafi and Saddam, now seems like the right time.
