Today’s Jerusalem post reports that an Al-Qaeda leader has issued orders to the rebel forces in Libya, to continue fighting …..
When one enters a war, should one not know on whose side one is fighting? The stupidity of that question, in and of itself, ought to clarify the insanity of the Obama Administration! We just don’t know, and no insider can tell us who these “rebel forces” are!
Over decades, we’ve supported brutal dictators, and when it’s been in the Middle East it’s been with the focus of assuring there is a free flow of petroleum — in other words, “In Our National Interest”. Evidently, through time, no group of nations ever considered using food as an equalizer ….. to keep a region that cannot grow enough food, to bargain, … keeping OPEC from gouging for oil???
In that we cannot pinpoint or identify anyone or any group in Libya, we should therefore, take it that there is a significant reason that they don’t want to be identified. That cannot be a good thing.
Here, we’ve spent a minimum of $271 billion on rockets alone (that’s the two-day count only; the first day, and yesterday), and we cannot say for sure, who we’re fighting for!??! Can you imagine another scenario so insane?
Certainly, it will not be the citizenry that would assume power if Qaddafi were defeated, but it’s them who are being slaughtered …. Instead, it would be this non-descript group of insurgents, from whatever country they’re from.
In Darfur and Rawanda, we stood by, watching, wrung our hands, and paced back and forth, while millions were attacked and died of starvation. Now all of a sudden, we enter ….. no; correct that; we begin or escalate another war, … while we’re engaged in two wars already? Even if it were ONLY a civil war, did we have the right to do so? No matter what Bill O’Reilly says, we cannot be the Cops Of The World!
Does no one remember back in the Bush administration that we were told that our enemies had a plan to draw us into many brush-fire-wars all over the world spreading us too thin?
On March 2nd, when testifying in front of a Congressional committee, Hillary looked into her crystal ball and warned that the next country that could erupt, was Libya …. and stated that Libya could turn into another raging Somalia!
That should have evoked pictures from the movie “Blackhawk Down” and the overwhelming sea of violent radicals, converging on our troops …..
All this, is just another tactic in bringing the U.S. down! And the American people? We’re too involved watching March Madness ….. and explaining why our brackets are better than Barry’s …. (please note: he’s arranged his trip to be home in time to watch).
