Obama: Libyan mission 'succeeding'
Politico44 ^ | 03/26/11 | POLITICO STAFF

Posted on 03/26/2011 2:06:20 PM PDT by ColdOne

President Obama used his weekly radio address to discuss U.S. participation in enforcing a no-fly zone over Libya. Stressing the stressed the limited nature of the U.S. commitment the “clear and focused” goals defining it, Obama still defended the need for American intervention:

“The United States should not—and cannot—intervene every time there is a crisis somewhere in the world. But I firmly believe that when innocent people are being brutalized; when someone like Qaddafi threatens a bloodbath that could destabilize an entire region; and when the international community is prepared to come together to save many thousands of lives—then it’s in our national interest to act.”

Obama & Hillary & Libya: The Keystone Cops Revisited -

Obama's Libyan War situation

Obama launches a war upon Libya.

It’s the Fourth on-going Obama War:

Afghanistan, Pakistan, Iraq and now Libya

Says he’s only going to kill people and break things for a few days. -

Hillary says NATO will take over the mission.

NATO takes over the non-existent no-fly-zone

....(There aren’t any Libyan planes flying so by definition it’s a no-fly-zone!)

....(And any no-fly-zone is totally dependent on US AWACS anyway!) -

NATO refuses to be in charge of killing people and breaking things.

Some will help do that, but, demand that US be responsible!

....(Something about killing Muslim civilians and potential war crimes)

....(All the Rebels are by definition “civilians”) -

Hillary and Obama declare success!

SUCEEDING AT WHAT??

It is succeding at creating chaos by prolonging warfare and impoverishing America.

he defines it by progress...

The caliphate is progressing with America’s unwitting and unknowing support.

The greatest progressive program ever....Hornswoggle Jan 20, 2009 is progressing.

I’ve been watching the news and reading news reports, and I still don’t understand exactly what the mission is.
