Afghanistan made sense back then since it would be absurd to allow al Qaeda to control a large nation.... Iraq took a lot of arguing and soul searching; technically we were at war with Saddam Hussein, and he did not comply... in both those campaigns there were mistakes made and there was "mission drift". In both cases, at any rate, there was some seriousness present and some strategic thinking involved. Now, what is this business with Libya? A humanitarian mission - in which Nato is already running out of ammunition? And now, it's US armed drones. Looks like as time goes by Qaddafi gets stronger. Probably, the clans friendly to his ruling clan have figured out on which side their bread is buttered.
