It is difficult to verify the situation in Libya, given that the country is too dangerous to enter. However, I believe this story from the Beirut paper, Daily Star, is generally accurate. Another triumph for Obama's foreign policy - Libya in chaos.

NOT an unknown way of life for them. They need our prayers.

Soon the powerful but destitute ruler of Egypt will respond to the pleas of the oil rich Libyans to save them from the Islamists. Kind of works out well.

You know how Obama keeps referring to ISIS as ISIL? Maybe he’s thinking “Islamic State in Libya”, which would be consistent with his weapons games in Benghazi that wound up with four dead.

How long before they pledge loyalty to Baghdadi?

It was an understandable but terrible thing to listen to the hurrahs when Daffy was sodomized and murdered. His entire WMD program was boxed up and shipped to Oak Ridge, and he was a nominal if embarassing ally against the Black Flag.

The Arab Spring, indeed.

Imagine what our thinking might be had the Egyptian military not overthrown Morsi and imprisoned the fascist Muslim Brotherhood when they did. Imagine what the Israeli situation would be this night.

Daffy was engaged in annihilating the Black Flag, holed up in Benghazi the night we were "led from behind" into stopping him from that welcome wet work, by the European Union under the guise of NATO. Why in the world would this administration decide to stop him, handing the country over to these criminal gangs, funded by Qatar through the Muslim Brotherhood?

Why was this administration so anxious to aid the Black Flag against Assad?

Do you think Assad, after losing another air base to the "Caliphate" yesterday, might be willing to make peace with Israel, after the fashion of the Egyptians, in return for our aid? Is it likely this administration will stop the Black Flag from overrunning Damascus, and if not, why not?

Does Doha and the al-Tahanis of Qatar control our foreign policy?

Let's hire a president willing to clean out Foggy Bottom.

So maybe we shouldn’t vote for some guy just because he’s half black?
