Suddenly, with the Libya issue, we can tell ourselves that we are catching up with Germany, whose pusillanimity is striking; we are showing the way to the United States; and the French (and British) flags are deployed in the streets of “liberated” Libya, together with that country’s own new flag. And, just as suddenly, the French, according to early polls, are proud again to be French.
突然间在利比亚问题上，我们赶上了以优柔寡断著称的德国，我们为美国指引方向，法国（和英国）的旗帜与利比亚的新国旗一起，插满了“解放”利比亚的大街小巷。 同样突然的是，稍早的民意调查显示，法国人再次为自己感到骄傲。
