UN imposes sanctions against Ivory Coast, feeling a little guilty about Libya are we?

In a move that smacks of guilt after passing the UNSCR 1973 against Libya, the UN has imposed sanctions against the Ivory Coast, and Laurent Gbagbo.

The civil war in Cote d’Ivore (Ivory Coast, a former French colony, or is it now?) has been raging on for much longer than in Libya, yet NOW the UN takes action?

And guess who was pushing for such action, why the same guys as in Libya, the French.  It also helps that the African Union has been asking for UN action for a while now. So, when does the bombing start?
