Everything you say is true and makes sense. I guess I don't agree with the ends justifying the means. I know there are always exceptions to rules but the use of the military seems to have become an untouchable by congress or an after thought. Within the present framework I suppose I would have done what he did but who is the enemy and who is the ally in that situation...Or is going to be another Afghanistan where we just stay and maintain bases and talk about security?
That's the worst part of all... Ghaddfi was a shitty guy, but he was
our shitty guy. The ones to take over? May hate us... and for that, we could be in worse danger. But at the end of the day there was only one choice to make and that was not to allow a dictator brutally murder 10's of 1000's of his people all because they wanted to be free..
in other parts of Africa the same genocide happens and we don't send in our guys.. but I think that the chance was taken in Libya because to have another country in that area to become a democracy, is just too good of an option to pass up..
