Kaddafi, yes - Libya is a tough place and he alone could have kept it under control and I have seen nothing that he was helping AQ.

Saddam had to go. He was a major player in supporting anti-American and anti-Israel terrorist groups. He is the one who paid Palestinian mothers $10,000 for each child who became a suicide bomber - Iraq was a safe haven for terrorists of any stripe.

Once we got into Iraq our soliders were killed by IED’s from Iran, even while Bush 43 was in power. Nothing was done.

Priorities were wrong after 9/11 with Pakistan that created the Taliban and put then into power in Afghanistan ignored as well as Saudi Arabia, the birthplace of the terrorist ideology of Bin Laden.

Yes, well documented he assisted Al Queda as well.

With flame suit on, Trump is an idiot. Go Ted.

That might be so. I don't know. But is the world a better place without him? I agree with Trump. It is not.

He wasn't. Bin Laden tried to take Khaddaffi out. Khadaffi (I don't know how to spell his name and don't care enough to look it up) gave us his intel files on AQ.
