I know you love Obama and everything, but he couldn't stop the Arab Spring.
By the way, you know they are having elections there don't you? What did you expect Obama to do? Please grow a set and tell people what YOU think he should have done.
Stopped the removal of a Tyrant using force, after all that would have been the only other choice. The right has never met a Tyrant or Dictator they didn't think they could use, why do you think America was so loved in the middle-east, we always backed those that terrorized the actual people of the nations there.
Yeah, remember when those "rebels" had the sympathy of the world..and then WE found out AQ was involved with the rebel effort. Still, they found sympathy from some and others changed their opinion because they really didn't want to be fighting a civil war for AQ's benefit.
How soon our memories of the WARNINGS fade.
The fact is...MANY, MANY people warned of this exact outcome if mubarak was pushed out too soon.
It was predictable to those that know the region.
Can't help that Quaddafi thought of obama as a MUSLIM BROTHER or that Calypso Louis thought the same.
Just because a county is ruled by Islamist does not mean it will turn into the next Iran. Alot of nice countries like Malaysia, UAE, Quatar, and Kuwait are ruled by Islamist governments and have certain segments of Sharia Law and the Koran written into their constitution. All of those countries are very stable, and wealthy.
Sorry, but no matter what I or anybody else said in the beginning of the civil war, after weeks of obama diddling on a decision, after finding out AQ was involved with the rebels, after the "days, not weeks" that turned into months....none of that has any relevance to what has happened NOW, the consequences of pushing too soon and letting Egypt fall into the hands of radical islamists.
But I see you have NOTHING to say about what obama said, do you? Please, tell me you acknowledge obama was WRONG in his assessment.
This thread is about the consequences of US foreign policy....and the RISE of the radicals under obama's leadership.
So, let's cut to the chase here, what do you believe should have done, Invade Egypt?
The vast majority of those bombs were not dropped by us and if the monster had not started attacking civilians they would have never dropped at all. As I said before and you admitted, you would back any monster over the People of a Nation determining their own future, thankfully the French did not think that way in the 1700s, otherwise our founding fathers would have all been hung. A I said I am not now, nor will I ever be, part of YOUR WE
You are sooo wrong. We decided Gaddafi not only go, but be killed. We dropped most of the bombs. We even used bio-weapons on them. This devastation and genocide would never have happened but for our invasion. The majority of people supported Gaddafi's Green Movement and still do, but they can't say so out loud. A United States of Africa was his end-goal.We have installed the TNC, which will continue to wreak havoc on the native peoples. It was a direct democracy under Gaddafi, now it will be extremist Islamic oppression. The media is not telling the truth about Libya or about Iran. When countries exert too much soveriegnty and independence, we force regime change - it's simple as that. It's our way or no way. People are disposable tools.
Why don't you just come out and say what anyone who has waded through 15 pages of your ravings knows to be true.
"Obama was wrong, wrong, wrong for doing [insert current subject of rant here]!!! Oh, and if Obama should happen to do the opposite of what I was just ranting about, well, then, forget what I just said, because he's wrong, wrong wrong for doing that, instead!"
Basically, anything Obama says or does is wrong. Really, that's your position, right? (It's okay, you can admit it. We all know it already anyway.)
Based on obama's/Left/dems previous statements....NOTHING should have been done in the Egyptian civil war.
Used to be the conventional wisdom was the US should not get involved in other country's civil wars. Used to be.
Then Obama did what you wanted, he did nothing, words were all that were ever issued, no troops, no planes, nothing. So what is all the fussing about
