Big deal? Yes, it is a big deal!

We are intervening in the affairs of a foreign country. Who are we to do that?

Why is it Obama is supporting the Muslim Brotherhood in all of these countries?

Would you have been happy if other countries intervened in our affairs? Would you have been happy if France had killed Abraham Lincoln because he was killing fellow countrymen in our civil war?

Will you be happy when the Chinese intervene in our next civil war? What if they choose to support Obama?

How dreadful are the curses which Mohammedanism lays on its votaries! Besides the fanatical frenzy, which is as dangerous in a man as hydrophobia in a dog, there is this fearful fatalistic apathy. The effects are apparent in many countries. Improvident habits, slovenly systems of agriculture, sluggish methods of commerce, and insecurity of property exist wherever the followers of the Prophet rule or live. A degraded sensualism deprives this life of its grace and refinement; the next of its dignity and sanctity. The fact that in Mohammedan law every woman must belong to some man as his absolute property, either as a child, a wife, or a concubine, must delay the final extinction of slavery until the faith of Islam has ceased to be a great power among men. Individual Moslems may show splendid qualities, but the influence of the religion paralyses the social development of those who follow it. No stronger retrograde force exists in the world. Far from being moribund, Mohammedanism is a militant and proselytizing faith. It has already spread throughout Central Africa, raising fearless warriors at every step; and were it not that Christianity is sheltered in the strong arms of science, the science against which it had vainly struggled, the civilization of modern Europe might fall, as fell the civilization of ancient Rome. -- Sir Winston Churchill (The River War, first edition, Vol. II, pages 248-50 [London: Longmans, Green & Co., 1899]).

In its first gesture to the international community, Libya’s Transitional National Council should arrest and extradite the Lockerbie bomber

Ha. You think the Muslim Brotherhood is going to do that?

I do not understand why any American would think this is a good day for our country or that any American will ever get anything positive from it.

Obama and the Muslim Brotherhood won this round.

Hey Hey, Ho Ho, Bye-Bye Col. Gaddafi-o.

One less anti-Semite rat in the world tonight.

The question is, what did Obama get out of it? He doesn’t do anything unless he thinks there’s going to be something in it for him.

The Muslim Brotherhood won. That’s what’s in it for the Left.

I agree, but fools think it’ll be replaced by something better.

Gadhafi is just another in a long list of tyrants from that part of the world, they’ll be more after him.

That's not the Chicago way. Something changed hands somewhere.

That’s my concern too. What is bungling Libya and Gaddafi’s murder going to cost U.S. in the long term and I don’t just mean the cost of the “kinetic military action.”

"The question is, what did Obama get out of it? He doesn’t do anything unless he thinks there’s going to be something in it for him."

He gets to help transnational Islamic terrorism, aid the formation of the Greater Caliphate and help prepare the way for the coming attack on Israel. Plus, he gets to generally weaken the US and show the world how dangerous it is to be an ally of or have a rapprochement with the US.
