Drone Aircraft Going to Libya

The Obama administration is now funding and using U.S. drone aircraft in Libya. Casualities are going to go up in both armed camps in that civil war country. Drones hit innocents in Afghanistan where the targets are in open fields. The Libyan- use drones are planned for close rebel support in urban situations. Sure. What could possibly go wrong? We'll find out. Senator John McCain made a surprise trip to Libya yesterday to give high-fives to rebels. Maybe the little hot head remembers and is embarassed about his 2009 meeting with Libyan representatives? Then he offered Gadaffi U.S. defense products on credit. Gadaffi bought a pile. How come the New York Times isn't mentioning that? Maybe it's old news not fit to print considering we also supplied Iran, Iraq, Egypt, Israel, Saudi Arabia etc.

Libya's Next Government: Sympathetic to al Qaeda?

What could possibly go wrong in Libya? Well we start with the fact that it is another country's civil war. That means that one side will win and the loser will hate America but will still live in Libya. Another fact is the fighters in the Iraq War who came from another country, not including ourselves of course,came from Libya. They went to Iraq to kill Americans. Another fact is Col. Gadaffi said the rebels are mostly made up of al Qaeda partisans. Another fact is that in the passed two weeks since we have been involved, there is already numerous cases of deaths of rebels, the ones we are supposed to be helping, by our own fire power. How do those "friendly fire"deaths help the next administration determine who their friends are?

Our spook president got spooked by the potential headlines that could point the finger at him if there was a slaughter of "innocent"Libyans. I don't know if those Libyans who we are protecting are innocent. Frankly, with 7 billion humans on the planet and our flora and fauna collapsing a die back would be appropriate.

Tea Party & Libya Quagmire: What About Budget?

Welcome Tea Party members to Washington. On your watch, the U.S. has entered into yet another mideast quagmire with the bombing of Libya. What about those budget cuts? Fuck that. Those are history. It's clear that the military-industrial complex still runs Washington and it draws on willing citizens who want jobs to engage in endless war. The only war we legitimately fought and won was our Revolutionary War. Every other war was on balance a loser.

Libya will prove to be another expensive, drawn out affair that is not critical to American security. The Libyans could have won against their Colonel Daffy Duck with guerilla warfare like our militia did in 1776. We didn't need to interfere.
