 Former French  Foreign  Minister  Alain  Juppé,  who  introduced  Resolution  1973,  asserted  in  his  
speech to the Security Council that “the situation on the ground is more alarming than  
ever, marked by the violent re-conquest of cities”. He stressed the urgency of the situation,  
arguing that “We have very little time left—perhaps only a matter of hours.”
 
 Subsequent analysis suggested that the immediate threat to civilians was being publicly overstated and  
that the reconquest of cities had not resulted in mass civilian casualties

A further insight into French motivations was provided in a freedom of information  
disclosure  by  the  United  States  State  Department  in  December  2015.  On  2  April  2011,  
Sidney  Blumenthal,  adviser  and  unofficial  intelligence  analyst  to  the  then  United  States  
Secretary  of  State  Hillary  Clinton,  reported  this  conversation  with  French  intelligence  
officers to the Secretary of State:
According  to  these  individuals  Sarkozy’s  plans  are  driven  by  the  following  
issues:
a. A desire to gain a greater share of Libya oil production,
b. Increase French influence in North Africa,
c. Improve his internal political situation in France,
d. Provide the French military with an opportunity to reassert its position in  
the world,
e.  Address  the  concern  of  his  advisors  over  Qaddafi’s  long  term  plans  to  
supplant France as the dominant power in Francophone Africa.
 
The sum of four of the five factors identified by Sidney Blumenthal equated to the French  
national interest. The fifth factor was President Sarkozy’s political self-interest.

France  led  the  international  community  in  advancing  the  case  for  military  
intervention in Libya in February and March 2011. UK policy followed decisions taken  
in France.

Despite  his  rhetoric,  the  proposition  that  Muammar  Gaddafi  would  have  ordered  
the  massacre  of  civilians  in  Benghazi  was  not  supported  by  the  available  evidence.  The  
Gaddafi  regime  had  retaken  towns  from  the  rebels  without  attacking  civilians  in  early  
February 2011.
 
 During fighting in Misrata, the hospital recorded 257 people killed and  
949 people wounded in February and March 2011. Those casualties included 22 women and  
eight children.
 
 Libyan doctors told United Nations investigators that Tripoli’s morgues  
contained more than 200 corpses following fighting in late February 2011, of whom two  
were  female.
 
 The disparity between male and female casualties suggested that Gaddafi  
regime forces targeted male combatants in a civil war and did not indiscriminately attack  
civilians.  More  widely,  Muammar  Gaddafi’s  40-year  record  of  appalling  human  rights  
abuses did not include large-scale attacks on Libyan civilians.
 
On 17 March 2011, Muammar Gaddafi announced to the rebels in Benghazi, “Throw  
away  your  weapons,  exactly  like  your  brothers  in  Ajdabiya  and  other  places  did.  They  
laid  down  their  arms  and  they  are  safe.  We  never  pursued  them  at  all.”
 
  Subsequent  investigation revealed that when Gaddafi regime forces retook Ajdabiya in February 2011,  
they did not attack civilians.
 
 Muammar Gaddafi also attempted to appease protesters in  
Benghazi with an offer of development aid before finally deploying troops.
 
(...)
 
the  issue  of  mercenaries  was  amplified.  I  was  told  by  Libyans  here,  “The  
Africans are coming. They’re going to massacre us. Gaddafi’s sending Africans  
into the streets. They’re killing our families.” I think that that was very much  
amplified. But I also think the Arab media played a very important role here.  
Al-Jazeera in particular, but also al-Arabiya, were reporting that Gaddafi was  
using air strikes against people in Benghazi and, I think, were really hamming  
everything up, and it turned out not to be true.
