Continued from article: “Despite what defenders of the mission claim, there was a better policy available—not intervening at all. . . . Instead, Libya today is riddled with vicious militias and anti-American terrorists—and thus serves as a cautionary tale of how humanitarian intervention can backfire for both the intervener and those it is intended to help.”

Indeed, the ISIS presence in Libya has now grown to the point that there is open talk of another (major military intervention) to root them out. Meanwhile, the decision to overthrow a despotic ruler in a foreign country after he had chosen to turn over his rudimentary nuclear weapons program sent a very clear message to every other despotic ruler in the world: if you have nukes, don’t give them up; and if you don’t have them, get some.

If this is “smart power at its best,” as Clinton says, I would hate to see it at its worst.

HILLARY'S INSANITY IN LIBYA!

But they had to create mass warfare over there.

Nobody would have tolerated their mass invasion plans otherwise.
