You ever wonder if maybe *all* the uprisings over there are inspired by al Queada, with the eventual goal of a totally radical Islamic side of the world. That's paranoid, but would be a wise course, for them.... Wow, that could make life a bitch. I wonder what we'll do when they go after Saudi Arabia. Since nearly all of the 911 attackers were from Saudi Arabia.... been there done that..... Bottom Line? give people a taste of freedom and self determination and things will take their own course. The Libyans (unlike the Iraqis) are the best current example of folks willing to fight and die for that cause. Morally, we owe them a bit of help..... and should NOT turn our backs on them the way we did the Poles in WWII..... To place this in historical perspective... we should be eternally grateful to the French for providing damn near every grain of powder fired by US during the American Revolution..... otherwise you'd be speaking British, today.... Well, my gosh. It's nice to know you have such a great warmth for all those rebels everywhere. I sure as hell hope you're right and they're all 'good guys'! I am, also, not Pollyanna... I hope so, too.... sometimes you just have to give it your best shot and hope your best guess won't come back and slap you silly.... I guess erring on the positive side is better than doing nothing.... however, the "fool me once" caveat kicks in and we don't get silly twice.... If Afghanistan is once...and it is, then Libya is twice. Even Gen Ham can't answer the questions he's given. Keep your fingers crossed.... this really is a gamble.... an honest gamble.... but, in all honesty, a gamble... I'm thinking it's a gamble designed to attract some Republican and Independent votes...nothing more. |

Let's go deliberately about getting rid of Qaddafi's forces right now. Let's not let alQuaeda or other hostiles take charge, of what we won. We on it lets make sure Libyans, friendly, to the US and dedicated to running Libya not exporting terror run the Country. to all the idiots that scream imperialism or other junk are not our friends and we really don't give a hoot what they say. It's about time US Leaders did a little succeeding. Let our Military do it's job. Ask the Professionals what they need and let them get the job done. It will be cheaper by far, in the long run, and we get something done. no more half assing in Washington. Sounds great. Only one little question...how do we 'make sure Libyans, friendly to the US' take charge? We don't even know who the rebels are, and we're not invading the country with a few tank divisions. How about we let them decide who they like or don't like and who's in charge based on actions rather than words? Oh wait, you don't really care about democracy unless you're in charge. |
