You know, maybe this is necessary and maybe it isn’t but I have no idea what the rationale behind it is and I consider myself a fairly well informed person. What is being destablilized by keeping Quadaffi in charge? Is this purely humanitarian? Then why haven’t we intervened in other crises in Africa where we probably could have done it more easily and saved more lives? Is it oil? God forbid if it is!! The mere fact that a civil war is going on and people are getting killed is never enough of a reason for intervetion unless we are approaching some level of genocide.
I’m not going to knee jerk criticize Obama for taking this action but I don’t think I’m being unfair in saying I have no idea why we are doing it.
