On what is your facts based on? The middle east people is sick of hearing crap like it will become "al-qaida" country for fundementalism etc etc. How many muslims do you actually think that they wanna go bomb west? stop watching fox news and read some real facts..the playing mantis wrote:well id suggest the fact that the west had become a lot more friendly with him would suggest he changed his terrorist ways rossie.........so i guess its not just ME who says this...idiot.
im not condoning him but hes the lesser of two evils.
i suppose you will be delighted when libya descends into religious fundamentalism and chaos with no clear leader, and a breeding ground for suicide bombers et al. regardless of how much money he creamed of the libyan people had a decent standard of life for that part of the world and were in a society that was relatively safe.
still you will be delighted when the infighting after hes deposed goes on for decades with thousands dieing and a massive slip in their standard of life, as you know all the facts...........
the current unrest is mostly due to tribal issues, who knows what these defecting pilots have been told to do...maybe they have an axe to grind with the regime.
ultimately, nation states that are made up of different tribes need strong and often brutal leaders to unite them and keep order (iraq???) without them its chaos and the different groups splinter off and fight each other: iraq, afghanistan, rwanda, sudan, the old yugolslavia etc etc
do some research before talking about things you have no idea about.
long term this is awful news for the people of libya and the west.
what business is it off ours to get involved anyway
Now its the hard work to build up a country based on whats so called "democracy", there is money and there is resources.. it just takes time. Or you want a dictator letting people starve to death?
