I keep hearing that too on the news. It's reported as if the Libyan military is just out to kill the population of Libya.
So why aren't they just doing that?
From what I've seen the "citizens" that the army wants to kill are the ones that have guns in their hands shooting at soldiers.
And two days ago they were showing the "rebels" with an old army jeep that they were using to run down "pro-Quadaffi" CITIZENS. That's right...the one thing that the news isn't reporting is the fact that the "Rebels" are KILLING people too.
Matter of fact, everytime that they shoot a soldier they just killed one of their own citizens who has family and friends that are citizens too. And everytime WE bomb their military, we are killing Libyans too.
I'm all for seeing Quadaffi out of there too. But if we were gonna do some crazy shit like this it should have been 25 years ago when his agents killed our soldiers in that nightclub in Berlin.
For the last 7 or 8 years he has been our buddy. He gave up his nuclear stuff to the international community. He publicly renounced terrorism. And we took him off the terrorist list. Not to mention his appearance a year or so ago in New York to give his speech at the U.N.
And now? Out of the blue we're gonna take him out? The country of Libya poses no threat to us. And hasn't attacked us. Yet there we are bombing and killing in the name of being "humanitarian"?
The United States tax payer should not be responsible for the entire fucking world. Nor should our troops be putting their lives on the line for them.
My feeling is it's gonna be just like Iraq. When we started this shit...a lot of the people there were dressed in suits and ties and living rather secular lives (compared to other places there). And when we leave...the place will be a bombed out ruin full of people wearing sheets and towels on their fucking heads and chanting "allah".
