Palin said, "history teaches that those with the guns usually prevail when a coalition overthrows a tyrant." And she warned the rebel command is an outgrowth of the Islamic Libya Fighting Group, some of whose commanders have links to Al Qaeda.

Thanks Houeto. I appreciate the mention. I may do some research on this in the next day or so if I get some time. Around the time McCain was saying we should go in, there were some large rebel losses, and I believe Palin was moved to push for our involvement.
You have posted something that seems to indicate she saw problems with our involvement, but that may not be the whole story.
Sometimes my perceptions aren’t supportable. I may be off base, and that’s why I did leave an out so folks wouldn’t see my statement as a categorical statement of fact.
Take care.
