Hillary Clinton’s Libyan “regime change” project remains in chaos with one U.S. official likening rival factions to rogue water “droplets” resisting a U.S.-carved rewards-and-punishment “channel” to reconciliation, reports Robert Parry.
The Obama administration is hoping that it can yet salvage Hillary Clinton’s signature project as Secretary of State, the “regime change” in Libya, via a strategy of funneling Libya’s fractious politicians and militias – referred to by one U.S. official as chaotic water “droplets” – into a U.S.-constructed “channel” built out of rewards and punishments.
However, so far, the “unity government” – selected by U.S. and United Nations officials – has floundered as the leaders of two rival governments bristle at demands for their compliance and show little interest in being good little water “droplets” flowing through the Obama administration’s “channel.”
In recent days, competing militias, supporting elements of the three governments, have converged on Sirte, where the Islamic State jihadists have established a foothold, but the schisms among the various Libyan factions have prevented anything approaching a coordinated attack. Indeed, resistance to the U.S.-backed Government of National Accord (GNA) appears to be growing amid doubts about the political competence of the hand-picked prime minister, Fayez Sirraj.
Jonathan Winer, the State Department’s special envoy on Libya, voiced some of the U.S. government’s frustrations during a May 20 panel discussion at the Middle East Institute in Washington as he explained the U.S. strategy for reunifying Libya under the GNA.

When is someone going to point out the fact that Clinton and Obama, and their policies in Iraq, Syria, Libya, Egypt are a DIRECT cause of the greatest refugee/migrant crisis since WWII??????
As Hillary said when referring to deposed Libyan leader Mohammar Qaddafi...”I came, I saw, He died.” The bitch has NO class. Every bit of the blood, chaos and tragedy that’s ensued in Libya should be laid at her feet!
Don't forget McCain's role in this.
As bad a certain areas are, it’s more concerning that Hillary and her supporters cannot name a single “success” that came out of her time at state. They can’t even pretend or come up with a lie about how any location/area/region/country got better and can’t list a single concrete result of our “improved relations” with unspecified countries. And when you consider how good they are at lying that’s really saying something.
You are exactly correct.
Nation building again. Why are we so stupid?
