"Obama used CIA and NATO to empower the Muslim Brotherhood, to replace secular regimes with Islamist ones in the "Arab Spring". And utterly destroyed an entire country - which is now in the grip of a bunch of fanatic islamist warlords fighting over the carcass"

... while completly ignoring the respect of "international law".

What mandate did the USNATO get from the UN Security Council? The SC imposed a ban on all flights in the country’s airspace — a no-fly zone - not bombings! "The Council specified that the flight ban would not apply to flights that had as their sole purpose humanitarian aid, the evacuation of foreign nationals, enforcing the ban or other purposes “deemed necessary for the benefit of the Libyan people. The representative of the United States said that the Council had responded to the Libyan peoples’ cry for help. The Council’s purpose was clear: to protect Libyan civilians. The Security Council had authorized the use of force, including enforcement of a no-fly zone".

It ended with a country totally ravaged by USNATO bombs and cruise missiles ...

That should tell you why he was a marked man from that moment on. The hate on the Saudi faces is priceless.

The U.S. does not need UN approval to go to war. Or do you think the U.S. should be ruled by the UN?
