Now as strange as it sounds, but I’d be glad to let France take the lead on this. They’ve done a good job fighting jihadists in Mali, and they were also first to strike Qaddafi. Hollande is a socialist, but so is Ehud Barak. I’d rather have a socialist who knows how to fight jihadists running a campaign than a socialist who is more concerned about his golf game.
I think that the Libyan adventure was as bogus as they come. Khaddhafi had become docile in the international arena although totalitarian at home. I think he knew too much about the Obama agenda and was murdered as a result in order to bury his knowledge.
