If other countries "may see fit to intervene", then the US may see fit to invade Iraq (whose war with the Kurds and Shia was only held in check by continuing US presence -- this was one of the points in JHR-114), and France should not criticise, given that it was also engaged in intervention.
If the US invasion was not legitimate (warmongering cowboyism, remember, not just a bad idea), then neither was France's, and France should not criticise.
