Today the elite media is almost orgasmic in praise for President Obama in the reported death of Libyan dictator Moammar Gaddafi.
So let me get this straight:
Gadaffi dead = good.
Saddam Hussein’s murderous sons killed = possible violation of international law.
Iraqi regime taken down = bad. Unnecessary war of choice. Who cares if they shot at our planes, invaded an ally, threatened to invade another, handed cash to terror groups and violated a cease fire agreement.
Elected government takes power in Iraq with a successful and peaceful change of power after successive elections = bad. Hopeless lost cause time to leave.
Egypt ousting of Mubarak with US help = good.
Muslim Brotherhood (Al-Qaeda grandparent) take over of Egypt with Lara Logan gang raped, women given “virginity tests” by the military, and armored military vehicles used against Coptic Christians in Egypt = Obama inspired democratic revolution.
Obama sells 125 M1 tanks to Egypt = good.
Obama helps oust Gaddafi = good.
Al-Qeada and Muslim Brotherhood commanders lead rebels in Libya = stay tuned for the Obama inspired democratic revolution.
1979: Carter helps oust Shaw of Iran, a dictator who wasn’t all peaches and cream but was certainly better than Gaddafi or Mubarak = good.
Silence Doogood says:
Bush captured and tried Saddam in a free judiciary in a newly democratic state…. that was very bad….. Qaddafi was killed by a wild unknown mob…
Qaddafi chose his own fate Gladiator
