'Merica!!!
actually, gaddafi was ousted due to the civil war there, and the atrocities his government committed on Libyans in response, not 'Merica. the USA had good relations with Libya since the late 1980s, up until their civil war, which was a part of the Arab Spring, again, not USA.


and Trump's wrong, the world would not be a better place with those guys.
