Lincoln went to war on BEHALF OF THE UNION, for the good of the law abiding people. Lincoln went to war against immoral people who were out to protect their own interests in sacrifice of the good of others.
Khaddafi kills to protect his domination of the people. The “union” in Libya is artificial, cobbled together to make the people easier to exploit, not for the benefit of the people (as is the case in the US).
Actually the better analogy is a comparison of Khaddafi to the goals of the “confederacy”. Both went to war to maintain their domination of an enslaved people.

Lincoln was no different to Napoleon, the Soviets or any other Imperialist, who only goal is to create a great union. You can’t leave the union or else we will go to war.

Jeffferson Davis ,President of the Confederacy was anti-slavary and the southern congress was already holding hearing on the abloishment of slavary when Lincoln attacked. Davis owned no slaves(adopted a young black man as his son). Neither did General Lee and the rest of the Confederate Generals whereas almost all of the Northern Generals owned slaves. Lincoln was a slave owner. Liberal historians try hide this by saying that the slaves were his wife's not his..

Lincoln went to war on BEHALF OF THE UNION, for the good of the law abiding people. What were those draft riots in NYC about do you think?
