Seriously this is horrible and something the right and left wing press refuse to report on. The only article I read about it from the MSM is the Washington Post calling for more western intervention (which is propaganda to the max).

How many here supported the illegal attacks on Libya, don't lie, be honest. How many of you stood by as republicans and democrats rooted for the war and claimed to being doing it for the Libyan people. Well these people are suffering because of you and your refusal to stand up and instead play partisan politics.

This is one of the worst legacies of the Obama administration. I blame Obama and Hilary for what happened in Libya. You can't tell me the people there don't long for the days of their former dictator. It's kept out the media, I believe, because its obvious who is responsible for the mess over there.

Lightbulb Tripoli is a war zone, Libya in tatters, and militias are looting government arms

So what?

N Africa is an extension of the middle east.

Mindless violence is the norm and nothing the USA or any other nation can do will change that.

Relax and thank your lucky stars that you aren't there.

Something we can agree on. These international messes we're constantly stirring up is the single reason I 'wasted' my vote in 2016 by choosing neither Trump nor Hillary. Not that it did any good, but maybe more people will start waking up and choosing something/someone other than the two main party candidates.

Same thing in Iraq now.

Whenever we topple governments we don't like in this region, something worse always results.

What an ******* thing to say. Saddam was hanged after a court trial. His sons took up arms against our military. Gadhafi did none of that.
