Obama issues an executive order blocking transfer or withdrawal of funds by Qaddafi or his children. He also cancelled military contacts with Libya shortly after all US embassy staff flew out of Tripoli  Friday night.

Above is from Debka on Feb 26th

The US has given Libya roughly 70 billion dollars in aid during his reign.
Also it was a big deal when American and mostly British intelligence got Qaddafi to abandon nuclear development shortly after the 2003 war. Has that even been mentioned in any of the coverage?

UN passes resolution authorizing military intervention. Crowds in Benghazi sing threats to Khaddafi.

Obviously trying to make comparisons, Drudge leads off today with an original thought (not c/p'd from elsewhere!)

Quote
MARCH 19, 2011
OBAMA: 'Today we are part of a broad coalition. We are answering the calls of a threatened people. And we are acting in the interests of the United States and the world'...

MARCH 19, 2003
BUSH: 'American and coalition forces are in the early stages of military operations to disarm Iraq, to free its people and to defend the world from grave danger'...


Yeah. Umm...

Please discuss the differences:

I was thinking more in line the backstory...

Like:

This time there's no lies!

On a side note: There was a comparison made this morning. Comparing the current action to Gulf War I.

Last Sunday, watching the Sunday morning news shows, everyone from the administration was acting like a no fly zone was a bad idea.  Somehow, during the week, it became a great idea.

Now, what is America's foreign policy interest in going to war with Libya?

Were they? I thought the Administration deferred to a UN consensus.

Let me get this straight. You and Hugo Chavez are the only people on earth questioning what has been widely acclaimed as a foreign policy victory for Obama?

I'll bet if he parted the Red Sea you'd find something to bitch about.  Embarrassed

From the news I've been watching (not FOX by the way, but Obama friendly networks) this has not been portrayed as any sort of foreign policy victory.  In fact, even if you support the action, it's no victory for Obama.  It sounds more like in the tug of war between Hillary and Gates, Hillary won.

If you think this is a foreign policy victory, how exactly is that the case?

we(as in many of us) are helping poorly-armed rebels fight their own civil war,  that they started, against someone who has the means to chem/bio bomb them and truly fuck up their day.. The UN is there to referee and make sure teh Col. doesn't use the biggest and baddest in his armory to slaughter everyone in the way mercilessly..

instead of starting and then fighting their civil war for them like we did in Iraq.
