Does anyone here seriously expect us to believe that 2% of the population of Libya is enough to keep Ghadaffi in power? Or only 2% of the Iranian population supports their Anti-American regime?

Of course! To understand how that can happen, you have to understand that Ghaddaffi, bin Laden, and the Taliban (not to mention Manuel Noriega and Saddam Hussein) were all armed, trained, and helped to power by our own CIA. That's a powerful and ruthless ally. Now the CIA is in cahoots with the Northern Alliance. Does ANYBODY know what the Northern Alliance stands for? Of course not. We only know what they stand against. We backed bin Laden and the Taliban not because of what they stood for, but because they stood against Russia in the cold war.

Even if we wipe out Hussein, the Taliban, and bin Laden, we will not have solved the problem. America needs to stop arming, funding, and training terrorists NOW!
