With another more Pro-American administration in Washington, the plan would be to recognize the provisional government and secure a base to supply an offensive to wipeout the Iranian rats nests down there and chalk up the first win for the US against Iran.
A pro-American government in Washington would do just that, as well as send a joint military force with NATO troops to Libya, secure the oil fields, support the rebels and remove that lunatic and his allies from power.
But we don’t have a pro-American administration in Washington. WE have a pro-Islamist government in Washington which is so dysfunctional it can’t even successfully implement its own agenda and CONTINUES to bog us down in a military adventure in Afghanistan which has lost all rationale for existence.
