#1 another Libya

What's wrong with Libya?

#2 Libya should have taught the Western political class about the ultimate futility of "deals."

After Bush & Blair unleashed Gaddafi by lifting the sanctions in exchange for some compensation payments, the dismantling of the nuclear program and the extradition of a Lockerbie bomber Gaddafi soon reverted to form.

Gaddafi used the cash he gained after lifting sanctions to buy cheap(!) wh***s in the Western ruling elites and resumed his thuggish aggression against Western nations, violating 'international law' with impunity.

Ultimately the point of contention was the Gaddafi regime demanding the right to wield its own government monopoly violence on the sovereign territory of Western nations.

This insane demand was made by a non-nuclear Libya which had nonetheless proven its skill at asymmetrical warfare over decades.

Chaos is still better that the stability of a mortal enemy regime.

As for 'refugees' they will flood Europe if Europe lets them in and they will have to stay out if Europe denies them entry, irrespective of what happens in the sh**hole countries they come from.

#3 Grom: Aside from being Libya?
Fox is reporting 6 B-2s departed Whiteman AFB heavily loaded (had to air refuel immediately), supposedly heading towards Guam.
Like they're carrying 15 ton bombs or something.
