It is all about perception.

75%  of French people backed the surprise military offensive to stop  al Qaeda troops advancing on to Bamako in Mali.
The move was judged morally right and analysts say it has transformed Francois Hollande from the nick name "Mr Flamby" ( had to google Flamby, it is apparently a kind of caramel pudding ) a wobbly ditherer into a strong and decisive Commander in Chief.
Not sure of the spelling of "flamby or flanby" as Henry Samuel went for the "n" but lots of other reports go for "m"    Pays your money and takes your choice?
Report by Henry Samuel in the Telegraph.
