National Security Adviser Tom Donilon told reporters Thursday that the United States and other nations have “taken a range of steps . . . to squeeze (Moammar) Qaddafi, isolate him, really turn him into a pariah.”

If true, even that's going too far. Gaddafi's already a pariah and he's going to emerge weaker than before when the last rebel is mopped up in Libya. A weakened, neutered Gaddafi is far better than the alternative in that country.

....A weakened, neutered Gaddafi is far better than the alternative in that country.

I was thinking the same thing yesterday. If we think Gaddafi is bad, just wait. More than likely his replacement will make Gaddafi look reasonable.
