The most important thing to note from Pepe's rant though is... just check the consistency. First, let's remove any secular regime in the region (Gadaffi is dead, Assad is busy, Bouteflike is still alive and kicking though). Second, use islamists to overthrow them, release those who jalied from prisons. Third, support separatism, arm them, finance them. And now, all of a sudden, the very same French are fighting the very same AQIM, exported from Lybia along with Tuaregs, and rest of islamic swarm in Mali, supporting "territorial integrity" of Mali.

French soliders are taught how to distinguish bad guys from good guys :D

Left -- bad guys (Afghanistan, Iraq, Mali), right -- good guys (Lybia, Syria, Chechnya).

The West has long-since given up thinking of Chechnya as freedom fighters, unless i'm out of step with something. Beslan and the Moscow theatre thing (plus the Black Widows) have eliminated the sympathy that the Chechens had back in the 90s.
