If Obama wanted to go into places where humanitarian need was evident, he certainly could have picked garden spots like North Korea, North Vietnam, Cuba, many of the "stans", and nearly all of Africa, including the Ivory Coast.
No, he picks Libya, BUT only puts our toe in, no boots on ground (except CIA), no telling Congress before, no strategy, no plan of entry nor withdrawal, then sends our Tomahawks supply in (leaving us with a large void in supply), then orders our planes to leave the area, and leave it to NATO (which the US largely funds).... Oh, he first says Gaddafi must go....then says he may go.....and now, it is, in effect, "Oh heck, let the good ole' guy stay....he's harmless"......
Who's on first?
The choice was either the West intervening or letting Gaddafi stay in power and slaughter both the rebels and civilians.
