yep.

...never mind, that of ALL the nations in the world, Sudan is the one that MOST needed what NATO is doing to Libya.
Gaddafi at most killed hundreds. Islamic Sudan has killed hundreds of thousands of non-muslims.
...instead we drop 2000 bombs on the only dictator in the region, who was actually helping us against Islamists.

That's why Obama is doing it.

Wikipedia on the Second Sudanese Civil War (1983-2005):

Roughly two million people have died as a result of war, famine and disease caused by the conflict. Four million people in southern Sudan have been displaced at least once (and often repeatedly) during the war. The civilian death toll is one of the highest of any war since World War II.

And no one mentions that Gaddafi was the one and only leader to voluntarily disarm from WMD. Would the US and NATO have gone into Libya if he had not? Just look at Iran and Pakistan for your answer.

Lesson the Muslim world and rogue regimes (Iran) the world over take from this is never give up your WMD.

Libya was a Pres Bush sucess story. The left couldn’t stand it.

That is why we are dropping the bombs, Gaddafi was helping us against the Islamists. That was why Mubark had to go-he was not an Islamist.

Maybe this was all an underhanded plot to suck Sudan into doing something so stupid we would have an excuse to take out Bashir. ;-) At any rate, Sudan does have oil, although the Chinese seem to have been trying to get a hold of it. I spoke with a Sudanese from Kartoum recently. He said he hopes they do to Bashir and his greedy wife what they did to Rumania’s Chauchescu (sp?) and his greedy wife.

Meanwhile action continues in Libya with the African Union coming up with a peace plan that apparently the rebels have agreed to. Who knows how Gaddafi will respond?

And NATO continues to bomb military targets between the Nafusa mountain rebels and Tripoli.

Now you understand Obama's foreign policy. He did the same to Mubarak in Egypt. Help our enemies and kill or insult our friends.
