I wanted the Libya deal for that one situation. It was like the Alamo and the kids were scared.

Gaddafi had them surrounded and was telling them he would go house to house and kill everyone in there. The kids were throwing up with fear.

Doesn't bother me one bit sending in the military to rescue those kids. It was an existential decision on my part and I am fine with it.

I am more philosophical about what is goong on now, realizing is hads to manifest itself until it reches a working democracy.

And I see no way of that happening until a bunch of tribesmen kill each other. Hopefully leaving the kids out of it.
