Libyan ambassador: International pullout after fall of Qaddafi allowed ISIS to 'get strong'
Fox News ^ | February 17, 2015

Posted on 02/17/2015 10:42:10 AM PST by McGruff

The international community’s loss of interest in Libya after the fall of former ruler Muammar Qaddafi created the vacuum that allowed ISIS “to get strong,” its ambassador to the United Nations told Fox News Tuesday, following the release of an ISIS video in which 21 Egyptian Coptic Christians were beheaded on Libyan beaches.

But in the meantime, the “most important thing right now is to lift the arms embargo on Libya so that the national army has the means to battle Daesh (the Arabic name for ISIS/Islamic State),” Dabbashi told Fox News.

On behalf of Obama’s muzzie brotherhood.

The people of Libya were so much better off before Obama attacked them.

Obama should be tried for war crimes.

Remember the grief Bush got for leaving a vacuum in Iraq just because the Baghdad museum was looted.

Remember the famous Colin Powell line, "if you break it you own it". The media went ga-ga over this and used it in its quandary reports on Iraq.

It seems however Obama could break Libya and not own it and Media doesn't say a word.

Bush was conned by Team Soros to remove Iraq's stable government as well. Same thing. The only difference is, Soros wasn't counting on Bush STAYING in Iraq so when Obama got elected he finished the job of allowing CHAOS to prevail in Iraq. Iraq, Libya, Egypt (attempted), Syria (would like to) are all targets of the Fascists using Islamists to crush any semblance of democracy and Christianity in the Middle East.

Removing stable governments for chaos to fill the void and the extermination of Christianity in the process. They're attacking Christianity in the U.S. as well, calling us "extremists"..

I am pretty sure the rise of ISIS in Libya is the fault of a video. /puke

Why does no one ask why Obama and Clinton purposely turned Libya on its head, thus creating a jihadi free-for-all zone?

No, camel jockeys in all the Middle East countries being outright cowards, was the cause.

Benghazi: Op Zero Footprint – US & Allies Freak Over Gaddafi Demand for Gold for Oil – End Is Near

++++++++++++++++

http://www.cbsnews.com/news/clinton-on-qaddafi-we-came-we-saw-he-died/

October 20, 2011,

Secretary of State Hillary Clinton shared a laugh with a television news reporter moments after hearing deposed Libyan leader Muammar Qaddafi had been killed.

“We came, we saw, he died,” she joked when told of news reports of Qaddafi’s death by an aide in between formal interviews.

You can ask the same question with regards to Saddam Hussein and Iraq.

What is happening in that country is much more gruesome than what happened during Saddam’s reign.

It only proves that in Muslim countries democracy is not a viable option — only a totalitarian government is feasible and effective. Democracy is out of the question.

Muslim countries will now transform from a dictatorial government to a ISIS type Caliphate, thanks to all the bleeding-heart liberals.

Khaddafi and Saddam Hussein can now say: “Miss me yet?”

I don't call a gov't which is shooting at our planes in the no fly zone and not allowing inspectors to do their work and calling for the death of Israel "stable".

Neither does having 200 tons of yellow cake in the country denote "stability".

Iraq was doing just fine when our troops were there. It was only when Obama pulled them out that it began to get unstable again.
