Great now the US can turn Libya in to even a bigger shithole like Iraq. In a few years people there will relish the days of a US free country just like they do now in Iraq.

Already did it. Where do think his cancer started?

Numerous polls show that the people of the United States oppose the Libya war by a 2-1 margin despite the extreme pro-war propaganda churned out by the corporate media—which again has shown itself to be the fourth branch of government.
But this anti-war sentiment has not yet been reflected in mass anti-war activity. This was the significance of the July 9 protest initiated by the ANSWER Coalition (Act Now to Stop War and End Racism). Despite the 96-degree heat index, for the first time hundreds of people came together to stand up, be counted and register their dissent at the President’s doorstep against the war on Libya.
History has shown that mass movements can quickly grow from such gatherings, and this could again be the case if the war were to escalate. Over the last few weeks, the resistance of the Libyan people and government has only seemed to grow, exposing the imperialists’ vision of quick regime change as an unattainable dream.

Libya is a Rich Man's War!

I LOVE THIS GUY
Look at who is funding the rebels, who is their spokes team? All republicans and Chevron Oil. 5 Min mark really hit the nail on the head.

Xenu this is a news update thread.
Please don't derail TT,bump the libya megathread.

Sorry, but this "kinetic action" was on the order of President Obama, acting alone without any authorization from congress. Reality suck sometimes.

Sorry yourself. Listen to what he is saying. He is talking about who is funding the rebels and who they hired as their spokespeople and it is as I said. Reality does not suck it sets you free, you should try it sometime.

I am responding to the news with counterpoints. All the links posted are one sided and I wanted to give an alternative view point.

I hate to tell you that Chevron doesn't have an aircraft carrier group firing missiles into Libya. This is Obama's war.

Once was not enough..Looks like we're going back.

Chevron is in fact one interest funding the rebel spokes team and Obama is an oil whore just like the rest of them.

Obama's war and the words of Cynthia McKinney and Co. Really? -- Moonbat alert!!!

It is OK to allow Ghaddafi to kill people as long as we don't help those evil oil companies.

A very important general in khadaffi's forces has called for all khadaffi forces to lay down there arms in tripoli.
He told mercenary's that it was not worth dying for the little money they get paid.

Puzzle: At what time is the libian dictator in the genesis video ?

Does he out rank Khadaffi? I mean Ghaddaffi is only a Colonel so I would guess his generals are above him. Colonel Khadaffi. Do you think he kept the rank because it rhymes?

We will kill far more people and don't forget we helped him kill his own people. Remember the tanks we sold him three weeks before we attacked him? Of course you don't, brainwashed people only ever remember what they are told to. How very 1984'sh of you.

> We will kill far more people and don't forget we helped him kill his own people.

Really? I would like to see where/when/how "we" did that. If I'm wrong I'll eat crow but I'm pretty fucking sure that his regime was on the outs with everyone (other than BP) for the last 26 years until GWB decided to start bombing douchebags in the middle east. All of a sudden he decided to play nice with everyone. Until he actually had some kind of real opposition at home. Then he went back to old form, kill anyone that doesn't agree with you.
