49. I don't see a single parallel. You post ed an OP
Edited on Thu Oct-20-11 07:12 PM by sabrina 1
I asked some questions.

A couple of answers to a couple of those questions would have been nice though such as:

What countries did Gadaffi invade?

What threat was Gadaffi to the US that would justify our involvement in that war, which is likely to go on now for years?

And another one. Why is this administration carrying out the plans of the Bush Neocons? Libya was on their list of seven countries to invade in case you did not know that. How many more to go and will you support all of them? There are lots of bad guys in the world, we support a lot of them. Gadaffi, on a dictator scale of 1-10 was probably around a 3. He actually was 'loved' by a good portion of the Libyan population, much as that fact is denied here in the West.

We are currently supporting some dictators who are nearer to the 10 range. Should we go to war with all of our current 'friendly dictators'?

If bad guys are the problem, shouldn't we be advocating taking out Karamov? People are confused, we seem to be selective when it comes to bad guys. I don't support this war, I didn't support Iraq or Afghanistan. I knew we were lied to, I know we are being lied to now, and I know we will continue to be lied when it comes to the MIC, the Neocons and their wars. Sorry if that offends you.
