The US led the charge in destroying a dictatorial regime that had ceased to be any threat to the United States and replaced it with armed anarchy which creates the happy hunting ground for jihadists. That sounds like a good blow-back prescription to me.
The US led the charge in destroying a dictatorial regime that had ceased to be any threat... Yes, indeed. Godaffy got a whole new perspective when Reagan sent a missile into his tent. He later did have a hand in Lockerbie but had abjured support of terrorism in recent years.If the Middle East must have dictators, better to have one that, out of fear, cooperates with the US than one we try to play footsie with.
