Hmmmm ... in the 1980s, the French never deined us access to airspace in order to "save our people." It did deny us access to French airspace for the "attack" on Lybia once it found out it was to be a one-time temper tantrum, rather than a sustained attack designed to depose Ghadafi.

In the 1990s, the reasons for U.S. involvement in the Bosnian conflict are many and varied; attributing it to some form of French cowardice takes almost Buffish intellectual contortions.

In 2002-3, the French seemed skeptical that Saddam presented a clear and imminent danger to the West. In view of the vast quantitites of WMD that have been uncovered, not to mention the evidence of Iraqi involvement in 9/11, I will leave the reader to draw his/her own conclusions as to the accuracy of the French position.
