Why doesn't Libya deserve a regime change?

The only reason Gadhafi made this move was to secure some oil contracts with foreign business men; I was just wondering why you were giving him what he wants aka as appeasing?

your ceaseless and baseless attacks on President Bush can be taken as a defense of Hussein.

Ah, I see you are a Rightwing Marxist.

Oh that's just silly. There are countless countries that would be more than willing to make some deals with Libya and thwart imposed sanctions. Russia, France and Germany vis-a-vis Iraq would be an example of such.

You really need to pay attention to news stories before making your little comments. Bush administration and State Department officials have already said that what Ghaddafi has done so far is welcomed, but not enough for some sanctions to be lifted. He has not (in recent years) been involved with terrorists the way Hussein was, and seemingly was not involved in the production of BW agents the way Hussein was, and he had a more firm control over his territory, unlike Hussein's regime which tacitly allowed various terrorist organizations use of its land and possible access (whether given by Hussein or not) to WMD technology and/or actual WMD.

[HenryLeeII from a previous reply]: "your ceaseless and baseless attacks on President Bush can be taken as a defense of Hussein."

[JohnGalt's irrational, non-sequiturious response]: Ah, I see you are a Rightwing Marxist.

...and its obvious to anyone with a brain that you are not exactly wrapped real tight, and have no basis for the drivel you spout. I would really love to see your excuse for bringing Marxism into this discussion, especially "rightwing Marxism," which, as anyone with even a rudimentary knowledge of political philosophy knows, is an oxymoron.
