Then you'd better have boots on the ground, because his replacement, if you leave Libya alone, will be worse.
Yeah, that’s a great idea. Let’s assassinate the leaders we don’t like in the Middle East. Won’t it be great when the Muslim Brotherhood takes over and we can have sharia law all over the Middle East.
It’s been a terrific improvement in Iran, Iraq, Afghanistan, and Egypt.
Next up: Bahrain and Saudi Arabia.
Can’t say I’m in favor of assassination as a tool of diplomacy, but if there was ever a character that needed killing, Qaddafi is the one
Lamh Foistenach Abu!

Saddam Hussein was turned over to his own people, tried and executed by them. The same should go for Qadafi. If we stoop to assassination, we’re no better than Quadafi himself. That’s what bothers me the most about this whole mess. No one wants to say they’re out to kill Qadafi, but they smirk as if they’re fooling someone. The goal should be to help bring him to justice. That’s a priviledge America grants to everyone......isn’t it? That’s what defines us as a Nation and as a people......isn’t it?
Even if his own people were to rip him to shreds without a trial, it would be wrong. If the goal is to kill Qadafi, why are we feeding, housing and providing for the terrorists in Gitmo? Just kill ‘em!
I can think of others more dangerous to our Republic... but I will leave it at that!
What will you do with the Mullahs & the ayatollah that replaces him.
Pretty much those are the two options in a muslim world that has never gone through its own Reformation.
you have either tyrants who rule with an iron fist, or you have shiaa islamic states run by islam.
Or are you also suffering from the delusion that there is any Arab “democracy” anywhere in the world that does not have American Combat troops on the ground?
