Those of you making it out like the evil west is yet again "sticking it's nose where it's unwanted" simply haven't been watching the news.
I've been watching.

None of us know the real inside story. But my guess is it's the same old song and dance. The "opposition" wants to get their hands on the billions of dollars that the oil companies pay the Colonel now.

And we have NO business interfering with the internal affairs of another sovereign country. Just like we would shit our pants if Russia suddenly decided to do the same to us.
