This is truly an analogy of vast historical ignorance. Qaddhafi, dungheap that he is, is unlike Hitler (and the danger posed by him) as: 1) his country is not sited in the middle of Europe; 2) he has a fraction of the 100 million ruled by Hitler; 3) he has no industrial base outside of oil; 4) his territorial ambitions have been limited to idiot border skirmishes with his neighbors; 5) his armed forces are weak, undermanned and with poorly maintained equipment; 6) he has no scientific or inventive base or experts; 7) he hasn’t singled out a particular group for his venom. At least Graham didn’t say something even more surpassingly stupid such as “if we don’t fight them there, they will be in San Francisco”.

It is actually a familiar pattern:

It is a given what kind of refugees Libya will export to the USA, regardless of who wins. Neither side of the conflict loves the USA.
