There's no hypocrisy there. They're not saying the evul furrners did anything wrong - that goes without saying. What they're saying is that their own people screwed up by not stopping them.

Likewise, they'd say that French intelligence f'd up by allowing the NSA to bug their president. The NSA did nothing wrong there, they did their job - French intel is supposed to stop them, so they're the ones who screwed up.

This sort of mentally diseased game theory is not even controversial in America - it's accepted wisdom that this is how the world is supposed to work. Anything else would be aberrant.
