Spokesman: Horror in Misrata grows with fresh shelling, little aid - CNN.com

"He said 23 people were killed and 104 were injured in shelling Sunday in Misrata. Another person was killed and nine were injured Monday, Mohammed said."

Uh, I thought we were killing people in Libya, to help the rebels??? I guess that was a failure...

Migrant train delay causes European diplomatic rift - CNN.com

"Italy's foreign minister has estimated that as many as 300,000 Libyans could try to leave and could potentially end up in his country."

And no doubt, end up in the US, on welfare and other public assistance.

No idea. Guess we wanted a chance to finally get rid of Gadaffi. Turns out that's harder than anticipated, and I hear he wasn't completely insane when he said there were components of al-Qaeda in the rebel ranks.

I support intervention for things like genocide (Holocaust, Darfur, Rwanda, the Balkans) but not for civil unrest.

Why?

Because Obama is a thug just like Bush and Clinton and Reagan and all the others before in the post WWII world.

Obama is a puppet. Your country is the war-monger....


...and it has to be to continue to function. Everything we have was/continues taken from somewhere (and someone) else. This means people on the other side of the planet regularly suffer so that we can enjoy our cushy lifestyle. That is the nature of our globalist system; take from the periphery and enrich the center. What, did you think it was a moral world !?

You cannot raise the price of gas at the pump to $5 per gallon without artificially creating some disruption in the flow. Wake. Up. America.
