U.S. Senator John McCain has expressed satisfaction at US President Barack Obamas decision for the US to provide medical assistance to Libyan casualties of war.
In a statement released in Washington this morning, Senator McCain referred to his meeting last month in Valletta with Maltese Prime Minister Lawrence Gonzi, who had proposed that the US would provide a hospital ship either off Malta or Libya to provide assistance to the many casualties of war.
The proposal made by the Maltese Prime Minister was taken by McCain to Washington soon after his return from meetings in Tripoli with the interim government, and formally wrote to President Obama, asking him to heed Malta's recommendation for the US to provide a hospital ship and to open up medical facilities within US bases around Europe for Libyan casualties of war.
Today's announcement is a good step, and I hope more will follow, because Libya's need for additional medical care is enormous. In particular, many Libyans now require prosthetics and the related rehabilitation so they can return to their lives and contribute to their nation's future. I encourage the Administration to build on today's decision by transporting more Libyans to U.S. medical facilities in Europe and by deploying a U.S. hospital ship to Libya or Malta, where it can contribute to our humanitarian mission on behalf of all Libyans, Senator McCain said.

McCain is a suckass.
An old Veteran once told me that he “must not have been too good to get himself shot down.” n/s
McCain was and is to this day a liability.
Let the Europeans send the medical help..they wanted the oil..let them pay the bill.
Next comes another special visa program to import Libyan rebels as immigrants to our homeland.
Shut up McCain.
Shut up, and go away.
Go away. You are not helpful. Ever.
It appears that John McCain has taken an active role in obama’s re-election campaign.
It’ll be a reprise of his 2008 campaign on behalf of obama.
John McCain was ‘converted’ in his POW tenure. He is a trouble maker to freedom, a sympathizer to oppressors, an appeaser for illegal aliens, and the servant of this world’s number one Muslim devil - Barack Hussein Obama. He only ran for President so he could give it to Obama.
No surprise there, he stabbed his running mate in the back after his meeting with Mac daddy.
